ABDOMEN, ANATOMY


Model of the intern anatomy of the trunk of an asexual adult human body, face on. The thoracic organs (lungs and heart) are visible in the upper part of the picture. In the abdominal cavity are located the right and left liver lobes (in dark red), the gallblader (in ochre, hanging from the lower end of the liver), the stomach (in pinkish beige), the spleen (in plum, against the abdominal wall), the large intestine (in brown) and the small intestine (in nude). The large intestine is composed of the ascending (in the right abdominal side), transverse (horizontally), descending (left abdominal side) and sigmoid (not visible here) colons. Three longitudinal muscle strips, the tenia coli (in red), are present on the transverse colon; they curled up the colon on itself to form bulges. The colon borders the numerous convolutions of the small intestine, which is made of the duodenum (behind the transverse colon and then not visible here), the jejunum (in peach) and the ileum (in nude). The stump of the left thigh reveals blood and lymph circulations (vessels in white and nodes in yellow).
