Human anatomy, including structure and development and practical considerations . ough a very common one. An accessory fold, the duodaio-cystic ligament, is prolonged to the right from the front of the lesser omentum,around the cystic duct from the gall-bladder. The hepatic attachment of the lesseromentum is to the transverse fissure of the liver and from its left end to the fissureof the ductus venosus. From the point at which the latter reaches the dia])hragm the two layers diverge, theleft one passing to the lowerside of the left lobe and theright one to the lobe ofSpigelius. The structureof the lesser omentum isdense and fibrous at theright. It is very delicate inthe middle, but somewhatthicker at the left end. Thefold around the vessels atthe free edge (Fig. 1473)forms the anterior borderof \\i^ foramen of Winslow(foramen epiploicum), a nar-row part of the jjeritonealcavity by which the generalcavity communicates withthat behind the stomachwhich has been formed bythe rotation of that organand the inordinate growthof the mesogastrium.

The cystic duct is really in an accessory hepatic artery, which passes along the left side of the duodenum and turnsupward, is the vessel that most definitely bounds the foramen in front. The duo-denum lies below the foramen, but its lower
