Why are the kidneys retroperitoneal?
Organs are retroperitoneal if they have peritoneum on their anterior side only. Structures that are not suspended by mesentery in the abdominal cavity and that lie between the parietal peritoneum and abdominal wall are classified as retroperitoneal.

What is double folds of peritoneum?
Double folds of peritoneum are structures formed by two layers of peritoneal membrane coming together and attaching to other structures within the abdominal cavity. Examples include the omentum, Mesentery, and the ligaments that support organs like the liver and uterus. These folds help to anchor and support organs while allowing for flexibility and movement within the abdominal cavity.
Describe the kidneys with regard to their position to the parietal peritoneum?
The retroperitoneal space is the part of the abdominal cavity that lies behind the peritoneum, a membrane that typically lines the inside of the abdomen. Inside the retroperitoneal (deep to the peritoneum) space, there are the kidneys, adrenal glands, bladder, and ureters. The aorta and inferior vena cava vessels are located within the space as well as part of the esophagus and rectum. These are called the primary retroperitoneal organs, meaning they typically form during gestation behind the peritoneum and remain there throughout development. All of the organs in the space typically feature some peritoneum tissue attached to their front, or anterior side, although no anatomical structures are generally a part of this space.
Why may acute pyelonephritis and cystitis follow untreated prostatitis?

Does the visceral peritoneum line the abdominal cavity?
These structures are all connected to each other. They contain and support the organs. If a person were very small and could start walking from one point, they would come back to the beginning.
What modifications need to be made to certain types of frame structures to stabilize them?
Adding diagonal bracing, increasing the number of cross-members, reinforcing key connection points, and utilizing heavier gauge material can help stabilize frame structures. These modifications help distribute loads more evenly and prevent excessive movement or deformation of the structure.
What is the medical term meaning an imaging procedure that displays continuous motion of internal structures and immediate serial images?
