What is omental torsion?
The omentum is a "fold" of peritoneal tissue that connects your stomach and intestines to the back of the abdomen. (It carries the blood vessels.) Torsion means twist. So that layer of tissue got twisted. It can be minor or it can be fatal, the correction is usually surgical.
What is diffuse omental infiltration?
Diffuse omental infiltration refers to the widespread involvement of the omentum, a layer of peritoneum that drapes over the abdominal organs, by abnormal tissue or disease processes, often associated with malignancies. This condition can occur in various cancers, particularly ovarian and gastric cancers, and is characterized by thickening and nodularity of the omentum. It can lead to symptoms such as abdominal pain, distension, and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies and may require biopsy to confirm the underlying cause.

Can omental torsion be fatal?
Omental torsion is very rare and is almost never diagnosed preoperatively. The condition is usually found once exploratory surgery has begun and other potential abdominal abnormalities have been ruled out. Omental torsion is rarely fatal and recovery is usually swift, depending upon how evasive the incisions are. Most cases of omental torsion occur in adults and affects both men and women equally.
What is an omental patch?
An omental patch is a surgical treatment of gastro-duodenal ulcer perforation whereby your omentum (a fat layer in your abdomen) is pulled through the perforation and fixed to the bowel to seal the "hole" created by the perforated ulcer

What is omental nodules?
Omental nodules are small, firm, discrete masses or collections of fat located in the omentum, a fold of peritoneum that covers and supports the abdominal organs. These nodules can sometimes be found incidentally during imaging studies or surgery for other conditions and may be benign or associated with underlying diseases such as cancer.
What is omental-mesenteric fat?
It is the protective fat layer which covers the intestines, just underneath all the skin layers of the abdomen.
What is omental tissue minor microscopic focus of serous carcinoma?
Omental tissue refers to the fold of peritoneum that extends from the stomach and covers the intestines, providing support and containing blood vessels and lymphatics. A minor microscopic focus of serous carcinoma in omental tissue indicates the presence of small, localized clusters of cancer cells that originate from serous carcinoma, a type of epithelial ovarian cancer. This finding may suggest metastatic spread or secondary involvement of the omentum and can have implications for staging and treatment decisions in cancer management.
