Q

blank retroperitoneal organs develop in a mesentary but then are reabsorbed and lost because they’re pushed out of the way

A

secondary (pancreas, duodenum, ascending/descending colon)

26
Q

lowest part of peritoneal cavity when patient lies down

A

hepatorenal pouch

27

blank recess is important since the vermiform appendix usually lies in this recess

A

retrocecal

29

A

lesser sac

31
Q

boundaries of lesser sac

A

superior - liver
inferior - transverse colon
anterior - stomach
posterior - pancreas

32
Q

four modifications of peritoneum in anterior body wall

A

median umbilical fold, medial umbilical fold, lateral umbilical fold, falciform ligament

33
Q

umbilical fold that has remnants of umbilical artery

A

medial umbilical fold

34
Q

mesentary that suspends jejenum and ileum from posterior wall

A

mesentery proper

35
Q

mesentary that suspends transverse colon

A

transverse mesocolon

36
Q

mesentery that attaches to sigmoid colon

A

sigmoid mesocolon

37
Q

omentum that is derived along with falciform ligament on smaller part of stomach

A

lesser omentum

38
Q

omentum that is on the greater curvature of stomach that is filled with fat and derived from dorsal mesentary

A

greater omentum

39
Q

greater omentum has important blank function

A

immune protective

40

mesentaries that is the connection of ascending and descending colon and small intestine

A

peritoneal gutters

42
Q

stomach to spleen ligament

three parts of stomach

A

fundus, body, pylorus

45
Q

arterial supply of duodenum

A

celiac artery, superior mesenteric artery

46

jejenum is more blank than ileum

47
Q

intestinal arteries from superior mesenteric form blank from straight vessels called blank

A

arterial arcades, vasa recta

48
