“…The right subphrenic space is bounded by the diaphragmatic surface of the right hepatic lobe, the coronary ligament posteriorly, and the falciform ligament medially. [ 1 , 17 ] The falciform ligament attaches the anterior surface of the liver to the anterior abdominal wall, which contains the obliterated umbilical vein and is continuous with the ligamentous venosum. The right subhepatic space is commonly involved in abdominopelvic infections and seeding from pelvic malignancy, where the paracolic gutter (described below) acts as a conduit for disease spread [ Figure 2 ].…”

The peritoneum is a large serosal membrane enveloping the abdomen and pelvic organs and forming the peritoneal cavity. This complex relationship forms many named abdominopelvic spaces, which are frequently involved in infectious, inflammatory, neoplastic, and traumatic pathologies. The knowledge of this anatomy is essential to the radiologist to localize and describe the extent of the disease accurately. This manuscript provides a comprehensive pictorial review of the peritoneal anatomy to describe pathologic fluid and gas.
