The peritoneum is a thin serous membrane that lines the walls of the abdominal cavity and most of the abdominal organs. It is composed of two layers: the parietal peritoneum, which lines the abdominal wall, and the visceral peritoneum, which covers the surface of most abdominal organs. The space between these two layers is called the peritoneal cavity, which normally contains a small amount of lubricating fluid. This fluid allows the organs to move and slide against each other without friction during abdominal movements like breathing and digestion.
The peritoneum plays a crucial role in the abdominal cavity. It helps to support and suspend organs
