intraembryonic coelem: 4 cavities
-1 pericardial cavity
-2 pericardioperitoneal canals
-1 peritoneal cavity
peritoneum definition
single serous layer of flattened mesothelial cells supported by fibroelastic connective tissue that attaches to body wall, diaphragm and viscera
peritoneum develops from
intraembryonic coelom
parietal peritoneum derived from
parietal layer of lateral plate mesoderm (next to body wall)
visceral peritoneum derived from
visceral layer of lateral plate mesoderm (next to organs)
what structures are derived from the intraembryonic coelom (3)
-peritoneum
-visceral and parietal pericardium
-pleura
peritoneal cavity definition
space enclosed by peritoneum
peritoneal fluid secreted by what cells
-secreted by mesothelial cells into peritoneal cavity
function/role of serous fluid in GI motility
-allows layers of peritoneum to glide against one another
-prevent viscera from attaching to abdominal wall
unique feature of peritoneum (hint: clinical relevance)
-large, rapidly absorptive surface area
-toxins are readily absorbed, good environment for bacterial growth = peritonitis
how does herniation of midgut during development lead to adult intestinal topography
- The size of the developing midgut is too large to be contained within the embryonic abdomen so it is forced to herniate into umbilical cord = makes for weak ventral abdominal wall in newborns and young animals
-Herniates into peritoneal cavity ventrally, takes two layer of peritoneum = mesentery, completes a 270 degree rotation so large intestine becomes looped around small intestine
-During this herniation the intestine drags vasculature, nerve supply, and lymphatics
mesentery: developmental definition
2 layers of peritoneum that migrate together as the developing midgut migrates ventrally
mesentery: definition
double layer of peritoneum that forms from invagination of peritoneum
what structure suspends the midgut from the dorsal abdominal wall
dorsal mesentery
