| Summary: | The omentum has, from time to time, provoked sporadic reports on various aspects and, occasionally, a series of reports on one in particular. Hitherto no comprehensive account of the omentum and its function has been given. This thesis was undertaken with a view to correlating the available information and, in addition, performing further investigations along lines that were indicated. The Anatomy and Comparative Anatomy has received scant attention and the question of independent movement by the omentum has not yet been satisfactorily settled. These subjects have, therefore, been investigated and reported on at some length. In addition, some experiments of other observers have been repeated and a few original observations have been made and their significance discussea. |
