This portion of the cavity becomes the upper part (vestibule) of the omental bursa, and at first it communicates with the general cavity by a wide opening to the right of the lesser omentum; but the growth Stomach , ,. , \ Mesentery obliterated Median plane \ \ v \ Csecum | Median plane ^ Transverse mesocolon of the liver, encroaching upon the opening, and other causes, reduce it to a relatively small size, and it forms the foramen epiploicum in the adult. The greater omentum is, as pointed out above, a bag-like growth of the lower part of the meso- gastrium, which passes downwards and to the left in front of the transverse colon. As shown in Fig. 975, A and B, it is first entirely unconnected with the transverse colon and mesocolon ; but about the third or fourth month it becomes united to both, and the adult condition is established (Fig. 975, C).. Duodenum Csecum.
