The image is taken during surgery, from the head of the operating table looking down towards the patients right foot. The top of the picture corresponds to the patients feet. The bottom of the picture corresponds to the patients head. The left part of the image corresponds to the patients left hand side.
This is an intraoperative photograph taken at the time of a lapartomy.
The greater omentum has been separated from the colon and is seen lying on the drape over the patients chest.
The transverse colon appears markedly distended. The surface of the colon appears mildly inflammed with adherent fibrinous material.
