The abdominal cavity,
the peritoneum
& the peritoneal cavity
By
Dr. Noura El TahawyFaculty of Medicine

• Superficial
view of
• the abdominal
• organs
Peritoneum
• Sagittal section
through the
abdominopelvic
cavity
• The larger part of the abdominopelvic cavity
• BOUNDARIES
• Superiorly: diaphragm
• Inferiorly: Pelvic inlet
• A large part is under the cover of the osteocartilaginous thoracic cage
• Walls are lined by the parietal peritoneum
Abdominal cavity
proper
• Thin transparent serous membrane that consists of 2 layers:
• 1. PARIETAL PERITONEUM –lines the abdominal cavity
• 2. VISCERAL PERITONEUM –invests the abdominal viscera
• Composed of a single
layer of squamous
epithelial cells
(mesothelium)
• The 2 layers are
separated by a capillary
film of peritoneal fluid.

PERITONEAL DERIVATIVES: Examples
Peritoneal cavity
• DEFINITION
• The potential space between the parietal and
visceral layers of the peritoneum
• MALES: closed cavity
• FEMALES: (+) communication with the
exterior through the reproductive tract
(fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina)
• As the fetal
organs assume
their adult
positions, the
parietal cavity
is divided into
the 2 peritoneal
sacs:
1. the greater sac
2. the lesser sac
(omental bursa)
Divisions of the peritoneal cavity
Peritoneal cavity
• GREATER SAC
• Main compartment of
the peritoneal cavity
• Extends from the
diaphragm into the
pelvis
• LESSER SAC
• Smaller
• Lies behind the
stomach
The communication between
the greater sac and the lesser sac is the

When an organ is
partially covered
by visceral peritoneum.
The organ lies

EXTRAPERITONEAL ORGANS
• Organs devoid of
peritoneal lining
• Rectum
PERITONEAL RECESSES
• Subphrenic recess
• Hepatorenal recess
• Paracolic gutter
Description and significance
SUBPHRENIC RECESS
• The existence is due to the complicated arrangement of the peritoneum in the region of the liver
• Right and left anterior subphrenic spaces
• Right posterior subphrenic space
• Right extraperitonealspace
SUBPHRENIC RECESS
• Right and left anterior
subphrenic spaces
• between the diaphragm and the
Iiver on each side of the falciform
ligament
SUBPHRENIC RECESS
• Right posterior subphrenic
space
• between the right lobe of the
liver, the right kidney and the
right colic flexure
Anterior and Posterior
Subphrenic AbscessAnterior
Posterior
SUBPHRENIC RECESS
• Right extraperitoneal space
• between the layers of the
coronary ligament
HEPATORENAL RECESS
• Located between the
inferior surface of the
right lobe of the liver
and the right kidney
PARACOLIC GUTTER
• Results form the
arrangement of the
ascending and
descending colons,
attachment of the
transverse mesocolon,
and the mesentery of
the small intestine to
the abdominal wall
PARACOLIC GUTTER
• 4 gutters
• Lie in the lateral and
medial side of the
ascending and
descending colons
respectively
PARACOLIC GUTTER
• Right lateral paracolic gutter
– In communication with the
right posterior subphrenic
space
• Right medial paracolic gutter
– Closed off from the peritoneal
cavity by the mesentery of the
small intestines
• Left lateral paracolic gutter
– Separated from the area
around the spleen by the
phrenicocolic ligament
• Left medial paracolic gutter
PARACOLIC GUTTER
• Right lateral paracolic gutter
– In communication with the
right posterior
subphrencicspace
• Right medial paracolic gutter
– Closed off from the peritoneal
cavity by the mesentery of the
small intestines
• Left lateral paracolic gutter
– Separated from the area
around the spleen by the
phrenicocolic ligament
• Left medial paracolic gutter
PARACOLIC GUTTER
• Right lateral paracolic gutter
– In communication with the
right posterior subphrenic
space
• Right medial paracolic gutter
– Closed off from the peritoneal
cavity by the mesentery of the
small intestines
• Left lateral paracolic gutter
– Separated from the area
around the spleen by the
phrenicocolic ligament
• Left medial paracolic gutter
The Subphrenic Spaces
and the Paracolic Gutters
• Clinically important !
• Sites for the collection and movement of
infected peritoneal fluid
