Posteriorly, the parietal peritoneum separates the anterior pararenal space (APS) from Morrison's pouch (*). Coronal reformatted CT image ( B ) shows Morrison's pouch (*) between the inferior surface of the right lobe of the liver and the upper pole of the right kidney. Laterally, limited by parietal peritoneum (block arrow) lining the right lateral abdominal wall. Sagittal-reformatted CT image ( C ) shows Morrison's pouch (*) between the inferior surface of the right lobe of the liver and upper pole of the right kidney.
