Coelomic Cavity - Abnormalities
Introduction

The intra-embryonic coelom (coelomic cavity) forms within the lateral plate mesoderm early in embryonic development (week 3-4 (GA 5-6). This single space then undergoes complex folding, partitioning and mesoderm-epithelia transition during the development of the 3 major body cavities. Portions of the wall of the coelomic cavity will also contribute to other organs (adrenal, ovary, testis).
How and why do things go wrong in development?
