22 Abdominopelvic Cavity Ventral body cavity Thoracic Abdominopelvic Abdominopelvic Abdominal Liver Stomach Kidneys Pelvic cavity Bladder Some reproductive organs Rectum

23 Abdominal cavity The space bounded by: Anterolateral abdominal wall Posterior abdominal wall Diaphragm Pelvic walls and pelvic floor. Subdivided into: True abdominal cavity (from diaphragm to linea terminalis) Pelvic cavity (below linea terminalis).

24 Peritoneum and peritoneal compartment Peritoneum is a continuous serous membrane, composed of two layers: Parietal peritoneum, lines abdominal and pelvic wall Visceral peritoneum, lines abdominal and pelvic organs. Peritoneal compartment is part of the abdominal cavity enclosed within the parietal peritoneum. Contains organs covered with peritoneum and peritoneal structures. Outside the parietal peritoneum is the extraperitoneal compartment of the abdominal cavity.

25 Peritoneal cavity Peritoneal cavity (PC) - the space between the two peritoneal layers, is a potential space, into which the organs are tightly packed against each other. PC contains thin layer of fluid, which lubricates the peritoneal surfaces and allows movement of the organs without friction. PC is closed in males, but communicates with the external environment in females through the uterine tubes, uterus and vagina. Peritoneum, peritoneal cavity and all the organs are situated in the abdominal cavity.

26 Development of the peritoneum

27 Relationship between the organs and peritoneum Due to intraembryonal processes the organs have different relationship with the peritoneum. 1. Intraperitoneal organs are entirely covered with peritoneum. They are connected to the abdominal wall with ligaments or meso, which ensures greater mobility. 2. Extraperitoneal organs are partially or entirely devoid of peritoneum. They are slightly movable or immovable. According to their position these are: а) retroperitoneal on the posterior abdominal wall b) subperitoneal in the lesser pelvis c) preperitoneal at the anterior abdominal wall.

29 Horizontal layout of the peritoneum

30 Passage of the parietal into visceral peritoneum

31 Peritoneal structures 1. Mesentery double peritoneal layer, representing elongation of the visceral peritoneum. М. connects the corresponding organ with the abdominal wall (e.g., mesentery of the small intestine). М. contains connective tissue in which are embedded blood vessels, nerves and lymph nodes. М. ensures mobility of the organs.

32 2. Omentum double layered structure of visceral peritoneal, extending from the stomach to neighbouring organs. Lesser omentum (оmentum minus) connects the lesser curvature of the stomach and intitial portion of pars superior duodeni with liver. Greater omentum (оmentum majus) descends from the greater curvature of the stomach and intitial portion of pars superior duodeni, covers the intestines, and then ascends back to attache to the transverse colon. Contains great amount of fat tissue.

33 3. Peritoneal ligaments double layered structures of visceral peritoneum, between neighbouring organs or between organ and abdominal wall (e.g., lig. falciforme, lig. gastrophrenicum, lig. gastrolienale, lig. gastrocolicum). 4. Peritoneal folds (plicae) formed over underlying structures (e.g., plica iliocecalis superior, plica umbilicalis mediana). 5. Peritoneal recessuses spaces in the peritoneal cavity заградени between peritoneal structures and abdominal organs or abdominal wall (e.g., bursa omentalis, recessus subphrenicus, fossa retrocecalis).

34 Divisions of the peritoneal cavity By mesocolon transversum the peritoneal compartment divites into: 1. Supracolic compartment between diaphragm and mesocolon transversum with its mesentery. 2. Infracolic compartment - between mesocolon transversum and linea terminalis. 3. Pelvic compartment - below linea terminalis in the pelvi cavity.

35 Supracolic compartment Organs: 1. Esophagus, pars abdominalis - intraperitoneal 2. Stomach - intraperitoneal 3. Liver - intraperitoneal 4. Gall bladder - intraperitoneal 5. Spleen - intraperitoneal
