The Peritoneum, Vol. 1: Structure and Function in Relation to the Principles of Abdominal Surgery (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
A classic reference on the peritoneum that connects anatomy to surgical practice.
This volume surveys the structure and function of the peritoneum with a practical focus, spanning physiology, histology, development, and gross anatomy. It also covers wound healing, adhesions, and the inflammatory reaction, with emphasis on how these processes affect abdominal surgery.
Readers gain a comprehensive framework for understanding how the peritoneum behaves in health and disease. Detailed chapters trace the formation of tissue, absorption, and the pathways within the peritoneal cavity, along with the anatomical relationships that matter in operative care. The text blends foundational science with observations drawn from surgical experience, offering a practical perspective for clinicians and students alike.
- Clear explanations of peritoneal physiology, absorption mechanisms, and lymphatic involvement
- In‑depth coverage of peritoneal histology, surface structures, and vascular relationships
- Insights into development, gross anatomy, and regional peritoneal relationships
- Discussion of wound healing, adhesions, and the inflammatory response in the abdomen
Ideal for readers of medical anatomy and surgical reference works who need a solid, research‑backed foundation in peritoneal science.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores how the peritoneum, a membrane lining the abdominal cavity and covering the organs within, plays a vital role in protecting the body. The author examines the peritoneum's physiological characteristics, such as its ability to absorb and secrete fluids, transport waste, and respond to injuries and infections. Through a comprehensive review of studies and experiments, the book delves into the mechanisms of peritoneal absorption, exudation, and adhesion formation. It provides insights into how the peritoneum maintains a delicate balance between protection and lubrication, essential for the proper functioning of the abdominal organs. The book's findings advance our understanding of peritoneal physiology and have implications for the diagnosis and treatment of peritoneal diseases.
