The haste necessitated by the disagreeable stench which arose on the abdomen being 
opened did not allow of full detail or study of the relative position of the viscera being 
made; but the relation of parts was thus noted. ‘The liver occupied the interspace 
between the diaphragm, the second and fourth stomachs, and the duodenal flexure. 
The omentum was thin and contained little fat, and only partially covered the intestines. 
Its visceral attachment was in a semicircular manner across the middle of the first 
gastric cavity, and slightly over the upper part of the spleen and lower anterior or 
ventral margin of the pancreas. From the first stomach on the left side it passed on to 
the lower curvature of the second, proceeding across to the right side along the lower 
margins of the third and fourth gastric divisions, thence to the duodenum and upper 
gut (dotted line, fig. 33). The second and third lay nearly across the cardiac end of 
the first stomach. The intestinal loops appeared to fill the remainder of the abdominal 
cavity, hiding all other parts, and even portions of the stomachs themselves.
