The Greater Omention.—We are now to trace themesogastrium in a sagittalplane downward from thegreater curvature of thestomach. On opening theabdomen the first thing that appears below the stomach is the greater omentum, (omentum majus), w^hich isspread like an apron over the intestines. It is that part of the mesogastriumwhich is situated in front. The terms gastro-colic and gastro-splenic omentaare but names for different parts of this structure. It extends from the greater.

Often it does not descend so far, but may be folded uponitself to almost any degree and in almost any position.
