– Aka Foramen of winslow – It’s an opening that connects the greater sac (general peritoneal cavity) with the lesser sac (omental bursa). Boundaries Structure Anterior Hepatoduodenal ligament, which contains portal triad- • Hepatic artery proper • Portal vein • Common bile duct (CBD) Posterior • Inferior vena cava (IVC) • T12 vertebra Superior Caudate lobe of the liver Inferior
• Type: Autoimmune blistering disorder • Autoantibodies: Against Desmoglein-3 (mucosa) ± Desmoglein-1 (skin) — components of desmosomes • Hypersensitivity type: Type 3 Hypersensitivity (Ag-Ab complex) • Blister type- Flaccid, Intraepidermal blisters Pemphigus group of disorders Pemphigoid group of disorders Bullae Flaccid bullae Tense bullae (because whole epidermis is present in bulla covering so bulla is tight / tense) Bullae
