OBJECTIVES:Today's lectures are designed to explain the orientation of the abdominopelvic viscera, the peritoneal cavity, and the mesenteries. LECTURE OUTLINE ­ PART 1 I. The abdominopelvic cavity contains the organs of the digestive system, except for the oral cavity, salivary glands, pharynx, and thoracic portion of the esophagus. It also contains major systemic blood vessels (aorta and inferior vena cava), parts of the urinary system, and parts of the reproductive system. A. The space within the abdominopelvic cavity is divided into two contiguous portions: 1. Abdominal portion ­ that portion between the thoracic diaphragm and the pelvic brim a. The lower part of the abdominal portion is also known as the false pelvis, which is the part of the pelvis between the two iliac wings and above the pelvic brim.

  • Abdominal Foregut & Peritoneum Development
    Abdominal Foregut & Peritoneum Development - Transverse View Gastrointestinal System > Embryology > Embryology Key Concepts • The peritoneum is a continuous serous membrane that covers the abdominal wall and viscera. - Parietal layer of the peritoneum lines the body wall - Visceral layer envelops the viscera, aka, the organs - In some places, the visceral layer extends from the organs as folds that form ligaments, omenta, and mesenteries. • Viscera is categorized by their relationship to the peritoneum: - Intraperitoneal organs are covered by visceral peritoneum; as we'll see, the stomach is an example of this. - Retroperitoneal organs lie between the body wall and the parietal peritoneum (the kidneys, for example, are retroperitoneal). - Some organs are said to be secondarily retroperitoneal, because during their early embryologic stages, they are enveloped in visceral peritoneum, but later fuse to the body wall and are covered only by parietal peritoneum. Week 5 Just prior to rotation of the stomach. Diagram instructions: draw the outer surface and body wall, and indicate that the body wall is lined by parietal peritoneum. • Organs at the midline, from dorsal to ventral: - Abdominal aorta - Stomach; branches of the right and left vagus nerves extend along the sides of the stomach - Liver • Peritoneal coverings and ligaments: - Dorsal mesogastrium anchors the stomach to the posterior body wall - Visceral peritoneum covers the stomach - Ventral mesogastrium connects the stomach to the liver - Falciform ligament anchors the liver to the ventral body wall As you may recall, the dorsal mesogastrium is a portion of the dorsal mesentery, and the ventral mesogastrium and falciform ligament arose from the ventral mesentery. It's helpful to remember that "gastric," as in mesogastrium, = refers 1 / 2 to the stomach.
