Boundaries of Abdomen,Peritoneum,Lesser Sac,Foramen of Winslow Boundaries of abdomen,peritoneum,lesser sac,foramen of winslow Dr.Suhasini p.tayde Associate professor Department of anatomy Boundaries of abdomen Abdomen- part of trunk extending from thoracic diaphragm to the pelvic diaphragm It consist of two parts abdomen proper and lesser pelvis Boundaries Lower part of thoracic cage forms the upper part of anterior abdominal wall Laterally the wall consist of three flat muscles Diaphragm is the superior boundary Posterior wall is formed by lumbarvertebrae,diaphragmatic crurae,psoas major,quadratus lumborum Clinical imp-overlapping of the upper abdominal cavity by lower thorax has clinical importancs as penetrating wounds of lower thorax may injure the abdominal viscera Peritoneum It is a thin, serous, continuous glistening membrane lining the abdominal & pelvic walls and clothing the abdominal and pelvic viscera. Parietal layer lines the wall & visceral layer covers the organs. The potential space between the two layers is filled with very thin film of serous fluid to facilitate the movement of the abdominal organs. Peritoneal cavity is the largest cavity in the body. Subdivisions of the peritoneal cavity It is divided into two main sacs: 1- Greater sac. 2- Lesser sac or omental bursa. These two sacs are interconnected by a single oval opening called the epiploic foramen or opening into lesser sac or foramen of Winslow Greater sac is further divided into supracolic and infracolic compartments Supracolic compartment-it occupies upper anterior part of abdominal cavity Infracolic space-entire abdominopelvic cavity below tranverse colon Intraperitoneal And Retroperitoneal Relationships Intraperitoneal organ means that the organ is completely covered by visceral layer of peritoneum e.g. stomach, jejunum, ileum & spleen. Retroperitoneal organ means that the organ lies behind the peritoneum and partially covered by visceral peritoneum e.g. pancreas, ascending & descending colon. Lesser sac = omental bursa Deep to lesser omentum Behind the stomach Between two layers of greater omentum Under the diaphragm and liver Deep to lesser opening (Epiploic opening) Lesser sac or omental bursa Is a recess that lies behind stomach & lesser omentum and the posterior surface of stomach It projects upwards as far as the diaphragm. Inferiorly it lies within the folding of the greater omentum. Its lower part is usually obliterated due to fusion of the anterior & post layers of the greater omentum. It communicates with greater sac only through the epiploic foramen. it is called omental bursa because it act as a bursa for the stomach allowing for its expansion and mobility Anterior wall: from above downward lesser omentum, back of stomach & anterior 2 layers of greater omentum. Posterior wall: From below upwards, posterior 2 layers of greater omentum, then the peritoneum which covers many structures on posterior abdominal wall These structures are: 1- Body of pancreas. 2- Part of abdominal aorta 3- Coeliac artery & its branches (splenic, Leftt gastric & hepatic arteries) Lower margin is the line of continuity of the two anterior layers of greater omentum with its two posterior layer Left margin is formed by left margin of greater omentum and linorenal and gastroslenic ligament Right margin formed by right margin of greater omentum and by reflection of peritoneum from pancreas to the posterior aspect of duodenum Lesser sac is divided into five parts vestibule Body and three recesses superior,splenic and inferior . Epiploic foramen Omental (epiploic)foramen Position: - lies between the liver and duodenum at the level of T12 vertebra - just above the first part of the duodenum - behind the lesser omentum - infront of the inferior vena cava Epiploic foramen The omental bursa (lesser sac) communicates with the greater sac through the omental foramen. Epiploic foramen Boundaries Anteriorlly - Free border of lesser omentum contain 1- Bile duct 2- Hepatic artery 3- Portal vein(post.) Posteriorly I.V.C Superiorly Caudate process of caudate lobe of liver Inferiorly First part of duodenum Applied anatomy Internal herniation ,a loop of intestine herniates through epiploic foramen into the omental bursa In perforation of gastric ulcer there is collection of inflammatory fluid in the omental bursa.

  • General Signs and Symptoms of Abdominal Diseases
    General signs and symptoms of abdominal diseases Dr. Förhécz Zsolt Semmelweis University 3rd Department of Internal Medicine Faculty of Medicine, 3rd Year 2018/2019 1st Semester • For descriptive purposes, the abdomen is divided by imaginary lines crossing at the umbilicus, forming the right upper, right lower, left upper, and left lower quadrants. • Another system divides the abdomen into nine sections. Terms for three of them are commonly used: epigastric, umbilical, and hypogastric, or suprapubic Common or Concerning Symptoms • Indigestion or anorexia • Nausea, vomiting, or hematemesis • Abdominal pain • Dysphagia and/or odynophagia • Change in bowel function • Constipation or diarrhea • Jaundice “How is your appetite?” • Anorexia, nausea, vomiting in many gastrointestinal disorders; and – also in pregnancy, – diabetic ketoacidosis, – adrenal insufficiency, – hypercalcemia, – uremia, – liver disease, – emotional states, – adverse drug reactions – Induced but without nausea in anorexia/ bulimia. • Anorexia is a loss or lack of appetite. • Some patients may not actually vomit but raise esophageal or gastric contents in the absence of nausea or retching, called regurgitation. – in esophageal narrowing from stricture or cancer; also with incompetent gastroesophageal sphincter • Ask about any vomitus or regurgitated material and inspect it yourself if possible!!!! – What color is it? – What does the vomitus smell like? – How much has there been? – Ask specifically if it contains any blood and try to determine how much? • Fecal odor – in small bowel obstruction – or gastrocolic fistula • Gastric juice is clear or mucoid. Small amounts of yellowish or greenish bile are common and have no special significance. • Brownish or blackish vomitus with a “coffee- grounds” appearance suggests blood altered by gastric acid.

Outline the support provided by the bones, muscles and fasciae of the abdomen and pelvis which contribute to the support and protection of the gastrointestinal tract. 2. Define the parietal and visceral peritoneum and know which organs are suspended within the peritoneum and which are retroperitoneal. 3. Understand the arrangement of the mesenteries and ligaments through which vessels and nerves reach the organs. 4. Outline the gross structures, anatomical relations and functional significance of the major functional divisions of the gastrointestinal tract. Background reading Rogers: Chapter 16: The muscles and movements of the trunk 29: The peritoneal cavity 30: Oesophagus and Stomach 31: Small and large intestines 3 HUMB2040/ABD/SHP/97 4 Abdominopelvic regions The abdominopelvic cavity extends from the inferior surface of the diaphragm to the superior surface of the pelvic floor (levator ani), and contains the majority of the gastrointestinal tract from the terminal portion of the oesophagus to the middle third of the rectum. Its contents are protected from injury by three structures: the lower bony and cartilagineous ribs (which will be covered in the next part of the course), the muscles of the lateral and anterior abdominal body wall and the bony pelvis. The pelvis serves to (a) surround and protect the pelvic contents, such as the lower portion of the gastrointestinal tract and urogenital organs, (b) provide areas for muscle attachments, and (c) transfer the weight of the trunk to the lower extremities.

Topography of the liver was taken to know the exact position of liver. The weight, length of surfaces and borders were measured. It had two principal anatomical lobes based on attachment of ligaments and two functional lobes due to the distribution of blood and bile. It had five surfaces with one distinct border. Owing to the dichotomous divisions of the hepatic artery, portal vein and bile ducts it has to have eight vascular segments which can be resected without damaging those remaining. Apart from peritoneal covering it had been connected with falciform ligaments, Coronary ligaments, Triangular ligaments, Ligamentum teres, Ligamentum venosum. The nonperitoneal areas were fissures of ligamentum venosum, teres hepatis, Groove of inferior venacava, Fossa for gall bladder and bare area.
