Abdomen I, II, III, IV Flashcards
What is the peritoneum?
a serous membrane
What are the 2 layers of the peritoneum?
1 parietal
2 visceral
what is the parietal layer of the peritoneum?
lines the anterior, posterior, lateral walls of the abdomen
inferior surface of diaphragm and pelvic cavity
What is the visceral layer of the peritoneum?
leaves the body wall to surround the abdominal viscera
What is between the parietal and visceral layers?
the peritoneal cavity
filled with serous fluid
allows for free movement of viscera
What is the peritoneal cavity divided into>
greater sac and lesser sac (omental bursa)
What is the greater sac?
accounts most of the space of the peritoneal cavity
once you open peritoneum in the cadaver = greater sac

small space posterior to the lsser omentum, stomac, liver, inside the greater omentum.
continous to the greater though the omental epiploic foramen
stomach rotation and the growth of liver is the main reason of tis sac

through epiploic foramen or foramen of Winslow
can stick hand in between
