  1. Stomach
  2. Transverse colon
  3. Small intestine
  4. Cecum

II. CLINICAL ANATOMY The small intestine is composed of the duodenum, jejunum, and the ileum. Although the latter two are not delineated by a specific point, they are distinguished as follows: • The jejunum has less fat inside its mesentery than the ileum. • The jejunum is typically larger in diameter than the ileum. • The jejunum has simple arcades and long vasa recta, whereas the ileum has more complex arcades and shorter vasa recta.
