Byrnes et al. reconstruct the developing mesentery from digitized embryonic datasets and human and animal cadavers using 3D digital and printed models. They confirm the mesentery remains a continuous organ in and on which all abdominal digestive organs develop and that at the foundation level, the abdomen comprises a mesenteric and non-mesenteric domain.
