KROK 1 2014 – Question 53 · KROK (Medicine) · Human Anatomy

A 40-year-old patient has ulcer perforation in the posterior wall of stomach. What anatomical structure will blood and stomach content leak to?

  1. A. Left lateral channel (canalis lateralis sinister)
  2. B. Bursa omentalis
  3. C. Right lateral channel (canalis lateralis dexter)
  4. D. Bursa praegastrica
  5. E. Bursa hepatica
Hint

Ask which peritoneal space lies directly behind the stomach, so that a hole in its back wall opens straight into it rather than into the main peritoneal cavity.
