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
connective tissue
(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).
PERITONEAL CAVITY
In male, the cavity is 
a closed sac.
PERITONEAL CAVITY
In female, it 
communicates with the
exterior through the
uterine tubes, uterus
and vagina.
PERITONEAL FLUID
It is secreted by the 
peritoneum.
It contains leukocytes. 
It ensures that the 
mobile viscera glide
easily on each other.
It is not static. 
Its accumulation causes 
ascites.
INTRA PERITONEAL ORGANS
They are organs which 
are totally covered
with visceral
peritoneum.
They are not actually 
within the peritoneal
cavity.
Stomach. 
Spleen. 
Jujenum and Ileum. 
RETROPERITONEAL ORGANS
They are organs which 
are partially covered
with visceral
peritoneum.
Ascending and 
Descending colon.
Kidneys. 
Pancreas. 
PERITONEAL LIGAMENTS
They are two- layered 
folds of peritoneum.
They connect the solid 
viscera to the abdominal
wall.
In the LIVER, it is 
connected to the
diaphragm by:
Falciform ligament. 
Coronary ligament. 
Right and Left triangular 
ligaments.
OMENTA
They are two layered 
folds of peritoneum.
They connect the 
stomach to another
viscus.
1. Greater omentum. 
(2) Lesser omentum. 
GREATER OMENTUM
It connects the greater 
curvature of the stomach to
the transverse colon.
It hangs down like an 
apron to cover the coils of
small intestine.
It folded back on itself to 
be attached to the
transverse colon.
LESSER OMENTUM
It extends between the 
lesser curvature of the
stomach and the under
surface of the liver
(porta hepatis and
fissure for ligamentum
venosum) .
GASTROSPLENIC LIGAMENT
(OMENTUM)
It connects the 
stomach to the hilum
of the spleen.
SPLENICORENAL LIGAMENT
It connects the hilum –
of the spleen to the left
kidney.
MESENTERIES
They are two layered 
folds of peritoneum.
They connect parts of the 
intestine to the posterior
abdominal wall.
Mesentery of small 
intestine.
Transverse mesocolon. 
CONTENTS
Blood vessels. 
Lymph vessels. 
Nerves. 
Fat. 
