Periteneum and Abdominal Cavity Flashcards
_________ is the thin membrane that covers wall and organs of thoracic and abdominal pelvic cavity
Serosa
The serosa secretes serous fluid that __________
Reduces friction
Two layers of the Serosa
- Parietal layer
- Visceral layer
Outer serosa layer that lines wall of cavity
Parietal layer
Inner serosa layer, that covers the organ
Visceral
3 serosa locations and names of layers
- Heart- Pericardium
- Lungs- Pleura
- Abdominal pelvic cavity- Peritoneum
3 organs that make up the abdominal cavity
- Stomach
- Small Intestine
- Large intestine
The abdominal pelvic cavity is also called the _______
Gut tube
Role of mesenteries
Connect the abdominal cavity organs to the posterior wall of the abdomen
The two main mesenteries during development that suspends gut tube. Which is each located?
- Ventral mesentery- only proximal end
- Dorsal mesentery- entire length
Organs that make up the digestive tract
- Stomach
- Small Intestine
- Large intestine
Parts of Small intestine
- Duodenum
- Jejunum
- Ileum
Parts of Large Intestine
- Ascending
- Transverse
- Descending
- Sigmoid colon
Digestive glands that make up abdominal cavity
- Spleen
- Liver
- Gall bladder
- Pancreas
- The intraperitoneal space include structures located within the ________cavity. These structures are:
Abdominal; stomach, 1st part of duodenum, small intestines, transverse colon, sigmoid colon, upper rectum, liver, spleen, appendix
The __________space includes structures that are behind the intraperitoneal space.
Retroperitoneal
Structures located in the primary retroperitoneal
- Kidneys
- Ureter
- Bladder
Structures located in the secondary retroperitoneal
Ascending and descending colon, pancreas, 2-4th part of duodenum
What differentiates the secondary retroperitoneal from the primary retroperitoneal?
In the secondary retroperitoneal, organs develop in the intraperitoneal, then become retroperitoneal
3 division of the abdominal cavity. What organs are present in each division?
- Foregut (Esophagus, stomach, first half of duodenum, liver, pancreas, gall bladder, spleen)
- Midgut (Second half of duodenum, jejunum, ileum, appendix, ascending colon, transverse colon (promixal 2/3 rds)
- Hindgut (Transverse colon (distal third), descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum
The blood supply of the fore gut is supplied by the ________
Celiac trunk
The blood supply of the midgut is supplied by the _________
Superior mesenteric artery
The blood supply of the hindgut is supplied by the ___________
Inferior mesenteric artery
