Mesocolon, Mesentery of the Colon (Mesacolon)

Mesocolon, Mesentery of the Colon (Mesacolon) is a duplication of the peritoneum, with the help of which the colon is attached to the posterior abdominal wall. Typically, in an adult, only the transverse and sigmoid mesocolon exist, which are attached to the transverse and sigmoid colon, respectively.



The mesocolon is a duplication of the peritoneum that attaches the colon to the posterior abdominal wall. In adults, there are usually only two types of mesocolon: transverse colon mesocolon and sigmoid mesocolon.

The transverse mesocolon attaches the transverse colon to the anterior abdominal wall, and the sigmoid mesocolon attaches the sigmoid colon. Both types of mesocolon play an important role in maintaining proper bowel function.

As the intestines move back and forth, mesocolon helps prevent the intestines from twisting and stretching. In addition, mesocolon provides support for the intestines and prevents them from moving to the side.

However, if the mesocolon is damaged or missing, it can lead to various bowel diseases such as constipation, diarrhea or even bowel cancer. Therefore, it is important to monitor the health of your body and undergo regular medical examinations.



The mesocolonterminal segment (Mesocolon terminale) is a duplication of the serous sac in the thickness of the mesentery of the colon. The mesocolnal is also part of the mesogastrium.

The mesocolon region protects the visceral peritoneum of the colon and is called the mesocolon, which is explained by the fact that the lining serosa is of mesodermal origin, therefore containing mesomorphic tissue. There is no terminal mesocolon in the rectum. The mesorheal wall is formed by midterminal folds; the folds are interrupted along the midline on the bladder. They provide the same support for the colon as a vesicointestinal anastomosis. After removing part of the visceral peritoneal tissue, the mesorecole allows the abdominal cavity to close over the rectum, lengthening the upper part of the abdominal cavity. The mesoricol zone reaches its apogee in this part, forming the rectum. The mesorectal function is similar to that of the vesico-intestinal anastomosis, but is not a precursor to the direct gastric or abdominal or esophageal folds.

Also, mesocoloculos are usually considered as a continuation of the mesorheological plate, which is an important formation for attaching internal organs to the lateral wall of the abdomen. It is advisable to distinguish terminologically between direct and indirect accession. Mesoneology is a flat protrusion of the mesenteric opening in the cervix or pelvis, regardless of the shape of the abdominal wall. Direct attachment involves the use of the rectus abdominis or rectus abdominis muscles
