17
Q

What does the omentum do in general?

A

attaches stomach to other things

18
Q

which omentum contains the portal triad?

A

the lesser omentum

19
Q

where does the lesser omentum develop from?

A

ventral mesogastrium

20
Q

what are the 2 parts of the lesser omentum?

A

hepatogastric L. and hepatoduodenal L.

-remember that THERE ARE NERVES HERE!

21
Q

Where does the greater omentum develop from?

A

dorsal mesogastrium

22
Q

What are the 3 parts of the greater omentum?

A

gastrocolic, gastrophrenic, and gastrosplenic L.

23
Q

What are the peritoneal ligaments

A
  • associated with the liver

- coronary R. and Left triangular L.’s, Falciform ligament (with ligamentum teres hepatis on the end of it)

24
Q

What are the superior and inferior duodenal folds formed by?

A

the inferior mesenteric vein posterior to peritoneum

25
Q

What makes the median umbilical fold?

A

urachus, it’s midline

26
Q

What makes the medial umbilical fold?

A

medial umbilical ligaments

-obliterated umbilical a.

27
Q

What makes the lateral umbilical fold?

A

inferior epigastric vessels (A. and V.)

-remember that this is what we use to determine whether and inguinal hernia is direct or indirect!

28
Q

What is the falciform ligament?

A

a curved remnant of the ventral mesogastrium

-the ligamentum teres hepatis (round ligament of the liver) is in its lower free border

29
Q

Where do we find the supravesical fossa?

A

between the median and medial umbilical folds

-site for rare supravesical hernias

30
Q

Where is the medial inguinal fossa?

A

between the medial and lateral umbilical folds

  • site for direct inguinal hernias
  • inguinal triangle
31
Q

Where is the lateral inguinal fossa?

A

lateral to the LATERAL umbilical folds

-site for indirect inguinal hernias

32
Q

What is the peritoneal cavity?

A

a closed potential space b/w parietal and visceral layers of peritoneum
*clinically important because abscesses amy develop and excess fluid (ascites) will pool here

33
Q

What is the greater sac of the peritoneal cavity divided into and what divides it

A

supracolic and infracolic regions

-colon and transverse mesocolon does the dividing

34
Q

What are the 2 spaces in the inframesocolic region and what divides it?

A

divided my THE mesentery into right and elft infracolic spaces

35
Q

where will intraperitoneal infection want to spread?

A

the inframesocolic region

36
Q

within the inframesocolic region, what stops fluid from spreading superiorly?

A

the phrenicocolic ligament

37
Q

through what structure do the great and lesser sacs communicate?

A

the epiploic foramen (of winslow)

38
Q

what is anterior to the foramen of winslow?

A

the hepatoduodenal L.

39
Q

What important thing dot he hepatoduodenal L. contain?

A

the portal triad

40
Q

What is posterior to the foramen of winslow?

A

IVC and the diaphragm

41
Q

What is superior to the foramen of winslow?

A

liver, the (caudate lobe)

42
Q

What is inferior to the foramen of winslow?

A

the duodenum (1st part)
