The peritoneum, mesenteries and omenta: normal anatomy and pathological processes

Abstract. The peritoneum is the largest and most complexly arranged serous membrane in the body. The potential peritoneal spaces, the peritoneal reflections forming peritoneal ligaments, mesenteries, omenta and the natural flow of peritoneal fluid determine the route of spread of intraperitoneal fluid and, consequently, disease processes within the abdominal cavity. Applied peritoneal anatomy - ScienceDirect. Analyzing together the development of the primitive gut and the surrounding mesothelium helps understanding that the peritoneal cavity, the mesenteries and other structures can be considered parts of the peritoneum.

Patterns of peritoneal spread of tumor in the abdomen. The peritoneum is the largest serous membrane in the body and the one with the most complex structure. The omentum is a double-layered extension of the peritoneum that connects the stomach to adjacent organs. The peritoneal reflections form the greater and lesser omenta, and the natural The peritoneum, mesenteries and omenta: Normal anatomy.

Peritoneum und Mesenterium Springer for Research. The visceral peritoneum is continuous with the parietal peritoneum, but covers the visceral organs and forms the mesenteries and omenta. The greater peritoneal cavity is a closed continuous space in males, but is discontinuous in females at the ostia of the oviducts. Overall, CT is an excellent modality for identifying the normal anatomy of the peritoneum and detecting and characterizing peritoneal disease. Peritoneal disease is most commonly identified on CT as ascites and/or soft tissue infiltration of the peritoneal ligaments and mesenteries, typically.

Frontiers The Peritoneum: Beyond the Tissue – A Review. In this article, we review the normal omental anatomy, common disease processes of the omenta, and their characteristic CT features. We also discuss the role of multidetector A thorough understanding of peritoneal embryology, anatomy, and physiology can aid radiological interpretation of a wide variety of pathological processes including bowel perforation, trauma, infections, and the spread of malignancy.
