| | eMedicine - Mesenteric and Omental Cysts : Article by Richard Ricketts, MD |
| | Another proposed etiology is lymphatic obstruction (Feins, 1990); however, experimental occlusion of lymphatic channels in animals does not produce mesenteric or omental cysts because of the rich collaterals in the lymphatic system, which sheds doubt on this particular theory (Takiff, 1985; Beahrs, 1950; Skandalakis, 1994). | | | Approximately 10% of patients require this form of therapy (Kurtz, 1986). | | | Other etiologic theories include (1) failure of the embryonic lymph channels to join the venous system, (2) failure of the leaves of the mesentery to fuse, (3) trauma, (4) neoplasia, and (5) degeneration of lymph nodes (Egozi, 1997). |

| | Mesentery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | THE mesentery refers to the mesentery responsible for connecting the small intestines to the backwall. | | | In anatomy, a mesentery is a part of the peritoneum that connects an internal organ, such as the small intestine, to the abdominal wall. | | | In vertebrates, the mesentery is attached to the back of the abdominal wall parallel to the spine and folding occurs after this development in the embryo, so that the intestines are free to move against one another without friction. |

| | After the caecum is formed as a diverticulum from the intestine it is situated close to the liver and gradually travels down into the right iliac fossa. | | | In many lizards the comparatively straight intestine, with its continuous dorsal mesentery and ventral mesentery in the anterior part of the abdomen, is very like a stage in the development of the human and other mammalian embryos. | | | Into the ventral mesentery the liver grows as diverticula from the duodenum, so that some of the mesentery remains as the faic-iform ligament of the liver and some as the lesser omentum. |
