The situation of the organsand the pathologic contents should be carefully noted. (Fig. 189.) Removal of the Abdominal Contents in the Right LateralPosition.—After exposing the abdominal cavity by the longitudinaland transverse incisions, pull the two left coils of the colon either up 412 POST-MORTEM EXAMINATIONS over the thorax or out across the body on the right side, so that thesigmoid flexure looks towards the head or lies on the ground and thebody and tip of the caecum come into view. Spread the mesorectumout over the left flank and pelvic region. Stroke back the faeces, doubly Duodenum Cut end of the rectum Spleen. Fig. 190.—Further dissection of animal seen in Fig. 189. Appearance of the parts after removal of the rectum, ileum, and jejunum. ligate the rectum at its entrance into the pelvis, and section. Cut awaythe mesorectum up to its origin at the rectoduodenal ligament, doublyligate the rectum, section, and remove. The ileum is easily recognized by its thicker walls and its entranceinto the caecum. Apply a double ligature, section, and, holding theintestine in the hand, cut away all the mesentery fromthe whole ofthe small intestine as far as the rectoduodenal ligament, divide this,doubly ligate the duodenum, and section. The junction of the colonwith the rectum is now exposed,—the so-called stomach-like or gas-troid dilatation,—under which lies the anterior root of the the dilatation with the left hand (Fig. 190), pull it towards POST-MORTEM EX
