===Omenta===

During development in the region of the [[Monogastric Stomach - Anatomy & Physiology|stomach]], a fold of the dorsal mesogastrium becomes extended into a curtain - like structure called the '''greater omentum'''. It originates from the greater curvature of the [[Monogastric Stomach - Anatomy & Physiology|stomach]] and attaches to the proximal part of the [[Duodenum - Anatomy & Physiology|duodenum]]. The potential space between the two sheets is called the '''omental bursa'''. It covers the [[Jejunum - Anatomy & Physiology|jejunal mass]] on the ventral abdominal wall. The opening to the omental bursa is called the '''epiploic foramen'''. The '''lesser omentum''' runs from the lesser curvature of the [[Monogastric Stomach - Anatomy & Physiology|stomach]] to the [[Liver - Anatomy & Physiology|liver]].
