The embryologic gut is established by the end of the first trimester. The final location of the midgut structures is determined by a series of counterclockwise rotations performed during physiologic herniation via the umbilicus. The appendix develops from a cecal bud that travels to the right iliac fossa. Additionally, the dorsal mesenteries of the ascending colon and the descending colon recede, resulting in their retroperitoneal fixation.

摘要

The embryologic gut is established by the end of the first trimester. The final location of the midgut structures is determined by a series of counterclockwise rotations performed during physiologic herniation via the umbilicus. The appendix develops from a cecal bud that travels to the right iliac fossa. Additionally, the dorsal mesenteries of the ascending colon and the descending colon recede, resulting in their retroperitoneal fixation.
