66754008: Appendix structure (body structure)

SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...

\Anatomical structure which has as its parts a heterogeneous collection of organs, organ parts, cells, cell parts or body part subdivisions that are adjacent to, or continuous with one another; does not constitute a cell part, cell, tissue, organ, or body part subdivision.\Structure of anatomical compartment (body structure)\Structure of body cavity and/or content\This structure comprises the space and content within the boundaries of the abdominopelvic cavity but excludes the walls that define and enclose the space. Previously SNOMED CT used the word 'compartment' to describe structures comprising the cavity and content but FMA has used the same word to include cavity, content and wall. As a consequence, the preferred notation is intra-abdominopelvic structure as this more clearly excludes the 'wall' structures. The intra-abdominopelvic structure is bounded by, but excludes the following 'wall' structures: superiorly the thoracic diaphragm; inferiorly the pelvic diaphragm; anteriorly the anterior abdominal wall (including the lateral abdominal wall); and posteriorly the wall of the abdominal proper segment of trunk. The pelvic component consists of the cavity and content of the true pelvis, which is bounded by the pelvic wall. Note, the structures that form the boundaries are excluded.\...

\Any organ (viscera) contained within the abdominopelvic cavity. The abdominopelvic viscera includes stomach, small intestine, large intestine, spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands, pancreas, liver and gallbladder and the viscera within the true pelvic cavity including ovaries, uterus, prostate, urinary bladder and anal canal.\Intestinal structure\Structure of large intestine (body structure)\Large intestine part\Region of large intestine\Appendix structure
