Abovethis the colon is connected by areolar tissue to the kidney. Occasionally the colonis adherent as far as the caecum. The non-peritoneal portion of the upper part ofthe ascending colon ecpials about one-third of its circumference. The transverse colon is attached to the transverse mesocolon and otherwisecompletely surrounded by peritoneum. The transverse mesocolon, after attainingits permanent condition, arises along the back of the abdomen from one kidney to Fio. 1419.
