They are attached to the posterior abdominal wall by mesentery (a double layer of peritoneum). The jejunum begins at the duodenojejunal flexure.

2025年1月24日 · The ileum is the final and longest segment of the small intestine, following the duodenum and jejunum. It measures approximately 2-4 meters in length and is responsible for the absorption of nutrients and bile salts.[5]

2023年10月30日 · The ileum is the last of the three parts of the small intestine. The transition from the jejunum to the ileum is not sharply marked, while at the distal end the ileum opens into the large intestine. At the junction between the ileum and …
