The j)eritoneal folds passing from a viscus to the body-wallhave received in many cases the name liQ;amcnts, although often such bands con-tribute little support. The intestinal canal was originally attached to the abdominalwall by a fold covering vessels and nerves named the jyiesentcry, parts of which per- FiG. 1365.

The term mesentery isvaguely applied to that portion going to the jejuno-ileum, while other parts are distin-guished by the name of the part (jf the intestine to which they are attached, as tneso-colon.
