Disposition of peritoneum (Ach) - W1 Flashcards

1
Q

Peritoneum

A
  • derived from mesenchymal cells of embryonic mesoderm
  • lines peritoneal cavity
    • completely closed in male; connects to exterior in females via uterine tubes
  • Parietal - lines the walls
  • Visceral - covers the organs

Q

Explain the fate of somatic, splanchnic, and dorsal mesoderm:

A
  • somatic mesoderm - becomes trunk wall
  • splanchnic mesoderm - forms walls of foregut & visceral peritoneum
  • Dorsal mesoderm - 2 layers of parietal peritoneum and countinuous with ventral.

Q

Compare the greater and lesser sac of the peritoneal cavity.

A
  • Greater sac = main compartment. Extends entire breadth of abdomen from diaphgram to pelvis.
  • Lesser sac
    • formed from rotation
    • smaller
    • lies behind stomach, liver, less omentum & part of greater omentum
  • the 2 communicate via the epiploic foramen (of Winslow)

A

right and left paracolic gutters

20
Q

What is around the hepatorenal recess and when is it important?

A
  • bounded by liver, R kidney, transverse mesocolon
  • lowest point in peritoneal cavity when individual is supine
  • fluid or air could indicate ascites, penumo or hemoperitoneum
21
Q

List some of the primary retroperitoneal organs

A
  • have development outside peritoneal cavity but within abdomen
  • kidneys
  • suprarenal glands
  • ureters, urinary bladder
  • aorta
  • inferior vena cava
  • lumbar plexus
22
Q

list some of teh secondary retroperitoneal organs

A
  • developed initially within the peritoneal cavity then later become retroperitoneal due to gut rotation
  • duodenum
  • ascending colon
  • descending colon
23
Q

What is the nerve supply of the parietal peritoneum

A
  • somatic afferent fibers (pain, touch, temp, pressure)
    • intercostal and subcostal
    • phrenic nerves
    • first lumbar nerve (L1)
24
Q

What is the nerve supply of the visceral peritoneum?

A
  • visceral AFFERENT fibers that run with ANS (sensitive to distention –> leads to pain)
  • diffuse sensation, diffuclt to localize
25
Q

Abscesses in what recess may penetrate the diaphgram?

A
  • subphrenic recess
    • bound by liver, falciform ligament and anterior abdominal wall
26
Q

Define peritonitis

A
  • = inflammation of peritoneum (general or localized) that results in accumulation of serious fluid (ascites)
