What are Retroperitoneal organs

Organs that are more closely attached to the body wall and do not have mesenteries.

Mesenteries

Anchor organs to body wall and provide pathway for nerves and blood vessels to reach the organs.

What are mesenteries made of

Two layers of peritoneum fused together, connecting the visceral peritoneum of some abdominopelvic organs to the parietal peritoneum on the body wall or the visceral peritoneum of other abdominopelvic organs.

Peritonitis

Inflammation of the peritoneum

Pleurisy

Inflammation of the pleura

Pericarditis

Inflammation of the pericardium

Parietal peritoneum

Lines the wall of the abdominopelvic cavity and the inferior surface of the diaphragm

Peritoneal cavity

Pleural cavity

Surrounds each lung

Thoracic cavity

Consists of three serous membrane lined cavities. A pericardial cavity and two pleural cavities.

Pericardium cavity
