If the serous membrane is involved, colonic perforation may ensue.

It is relatively inelastic and protects the heart and the serous membranes.

For the heart, the surrounding serous membranes include:

Therefore each organ becomes surrounded by serous membrane - they do not lie within the serous cavity.

The pleura is a serous membrane which folds back onto itself to form a two-layered membrane structure.

Both the abdominal and pelvic cavities are lined by a serous membrane known as the parietal peritoneum.

Another type of serous fluid is secreted by the two layered serous membranes which line the body cavities.

Quick post-mortem examination will lead to the discovery of many haemorrhagic patches on the serous membranes, and intense pneumonia.

Each of the organs is covered in a double layer of fascia; these layers are separated by a thin serous membrane.

Serous membrane, a thin layer of mesothelial cells that is the outermost wall of the stomach.

All serous membranes found in the human body formed ultimately from the mesoderm of the trilaminar embryo.

Pleuroperitoneal is a term denoting the pleural and peritoneal serous membranes or the cavities they line.

Each serous membrane is composed of a secretory epithelial layer and a connective tissue layer underneath.

The visceral layer will form the visceral layer of the serous membranes covering the lungs, heart, and abdominal organs.

The somatopleure is associated with the overlying ectoderm and later becomes the serous membrane in contact with the body wall.

Each lung is invested by an exceedingly delicate serous membrane, the pleura, which is arranged in the form of a closed invaginated sac.

The intraembronic coelom can now be seen as a cavity within the body which is covered with serous membrane derived from the splanchnopleure.

It is marked by chills, fever, prostration, and inflammation of the different serous membranes and of the lungs, kidneys, and other organs.

This is commonly seen in serous cavities, where the conversion of fibrinous exudate into a scar can occur between serous membranes, limiting their function.

The attachment of the artery to its fibrous ring is strengthened by the external coat and serous membrane externally, and by the endocardium internally.

The serous cavities are formed from the intraembryonic coelom and are basically an empty space within the body surrounded by serous membrane.

In many serous membranes, it appears as a loose arrangement of collagenous and elastic fibers, scattered cells of various types; abundant ground substance; numerous blood vessels.

Serous membranes line and enclose several body cavities, known as serous cavities, where they secrete a lubricating fluid which reduces friction from muscle movement.

In pathology, hyaloserositis is the coating of an organ with a fibrous hyaline, resulting from inflammation of the serous membrane (serositis) covering the organ.

In normal circumstances, the parietal mesoderm will form the parietal layer of serous membranes lining the outside (walls) of the peritoneal, pleural, and pericardial cavities.

The serosa - the outer layer that acts as a covering for the other layers.

They are visible, and can be seen just below the serosa or fibrosa.

For example, the serosa of the uterus is called the perimetrium.

Net fluid transport was expressed as l.min -1.100 cm -2 serosa.

Electrogastrogram can be made from the gastrointestinal mucosa, serosa, or skin surface.

Blood may force its way through the uterine wall into the serosa, a condition known as Couvelaire uterus.

Intraperitoneal parts of the GI tract are covered with serosa.

To some degree, its role is complementary to that of the serosa, which also provides a layer of tissue surrounding an organ.

The Latin anatomical name is tunica serosa.

Cancer has spread through the serosa (outermost layer) of the colon wall but has not spread to nearby organs.

Lochia serosa which persists to some weeks after birth can indicate late postpartum hemorrhaging, and should be reported to a physician.

It was not possible to distinguish between the amnion and the serosa once they had fused so we will collectively refer to them as the amnioserosa.

Serosa is not to be confused with adventitia, a connective tissue layer which binds together structures rather than reducing friction between them.

In the gastrointestinal tract, the muscularis externa is bounded in most cases by serosa.

Lochia serosa is the term for lochia that has thinned and turned brownish or pink in color.

The plasmodia were found in the connective tissue of the gill arch, skin, serosa of the body cavity, urinary bladder and eye.

A net fluid secretion was observed in almost all experiments, secretion averaging 99 l.min -1.100 cm -2 serosa in 26 experiments.

Ulceration is common, varying from simple loss of epithelial layers to ulcers that may penetrate to different depths of the intestinal wall, even to the serosa.

Another type of serous fluid is secreted by the serous membranes (or serosa), two layered membranes which line the body cavities.

The space between the amnion and the serosa constitutes the extra-embryonic celom, and for a time communicates with the embryonic celom.

The tela subserosa (or just subserosa) is a layer of tissue between the muscularis and serosa.

The perimetrium (or serous coat of uterus) is the outer serosa layer of the uterus, equivalent to peritoneum.

The connective tissue of the gallbladder is covered by adventitia where the gallbladder bounds the liver, but by serosa for the rest of its surface.

Gallbladder cancer suspected before surgery because of symptoms, however, usually penetrates the muscularis and serosa and is curable in fewer than 5% of patients.

"Now I'm going through the serous coat.'

The perimetrium (or serous coat of uterus) is the outer serosa layer of the uterus, equivalent to peritoneum.
