Abstract

The author describes two educational strategies for helping students to understand the complex three-dimensional structure of the peritoneal cavity and the developmental changes by which that structure arises. The first strategy consists of a series of conducted circular tours round the peritoneal lining of the postnatal abdomen. The second is a demonstration of the developmental history of the placing of the gut and its peritoneum using a model.
