Operative gynecology : . d between the letters B and C; crossing the vertebralcolumn once more to the left, the next group is found lying in the left iliacfossa, included between the letters C and D; the fourth and last group oflamella?, between D and E, fills the lower abdomen and right iliac fossa, andit is particularly important to note the straight line of the terminal portionascending from the pelvis to the head of the colon as the mesentery rapidlyshortens from its extreme length down to nothing at all. The only loops of 56 TOPOGRAPHICAL ANATOMY. the intestines which in all cases cross the median line are those going fromthe first to the second and from the second to the third groups. The obliqueattachment of the mesentery is well shown, extending from above downwardand from left to right, in striking contrast to the more horizontal attachmentfound in the fetus. I have shown the relations of the folds of the mesenteryin Fig. 21 in order to simplify the study of the relations of groups of intes- Duodenum.
