Into this the pneu- mato- and hepato-enteric cavities of the left side open; however, it is obvious that this space is not analogous to the omental spaces on the right. Origin of the Spleen. The spleen arises as a proliferation from the peritoneum clothing the left side of the dorsal mesentery just above the extremity of the dorsal pancreas. This prolifera- tion forms the angle of a cranio-caudal fold of the dorsal mesen- tery which is caused by the displacement of stomach and intestine.
