PARTS • The peritoneum is the most complex serous membrane of the body. • It consists of : • (1) Parietal peritoneum : • It lines the abdominal and pelvic walls (parietes). • It is separated from the body wall by areolar connectivetissue(extraperitoneal tissue).
PARIETAL PERITONEUM • It varies in different regions. • It contains a large amount of fat in the area of the kidney.
(2) VISCERAL PERITONEUM • It is the reflection of the parietal peritoneum on the organs. • It is firmly united to the viscera which it covers.
PERITONEAL CAVITY • It is the potential space between the parietal and visceral layers. • It consists of : • A. Greater sac : • It is the main region. • B. Lesser sac (omental bursa) : • It is a diverticulum behind the stomach.
PERITONEAL CAVITY • The lesser omentum separates the greater and lesser sacs. • The two sacs communicate through the opening of the lesser sac (Epiploic foramen).
