New body discovered in humans

limerick - Top researchers have discovered a new organ in our body, they claim in the scientific journal The Lancet. It is about the mesentery, which is part of the digestive system. Recent research has shown that this one goes uninterrupted body.

About the function of the organ is still little known. Researcher J. Calvin Coffey of University Hospital Limerick in Ireland says that the mesentery as a body should be seen as the 'one continuous structure' is. Earlier it was still assumed that the part of the human body is too fragmented and complex. The organ is located in the peritoneum that lines our abdominal cavity.

Thanks to the study, students will now be heard in the medical sciences which the mesentery is a separate body. In major medical textbooks is the new definition already recorded, writes The Independent.
