NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -The omenta are folds of peritoneum enclosing nerves, blood vessels, lymph channels, and fatty and connective tissue. There are two omenta: the greater omentum hangs down from the transverse colon of the large intestine like an apron; the lesser omentum is much smaller and extends between the stomach and the liver.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your visceral peritoneum wraps around your abdominal organs, particularly your stomach, liver, spleen and parts of your small and large intestines. Organs inside of your visceral peritoneum are called “intraperitoneal.” The others are “retroperitoneal.”

Detailed explanation-3: -The peritoneum is comprised of 2 layers: the superficial parietal layer and the deep visceral layer. The peritoneal cavity contains the omentum, ligaments, and mesentery. Intraperitoneal organs include the stomach, spleen, liver, first and fourth parts of the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, transverse, and sigmoid colon.
