The mesentery is a fold of membranous tissue that arises from the posterior wall of the peritoneal cavity and attaches to the intestinal tract.Within it are the arteries and veins that supply the intestine.uring mobilization of the small intestinal mesentery from the posterior abdominal wall, this fold is incised, allowing access to the interface between the small intestinal mesentery and the retroperitoneum.
Sclerosing Mesenteritis. Sclerosing mesenteritis is a rare disease that affects a fold of tissue that connects the small bowel to the wall of the abdomen. This fold is called the small bowel mesentery. Inflammation and scarring (fibrosis) of the small bowel mesentery are the main features of sclerosing mesenteritis.inding the cause has been difficult, but it is thought that patients with sclerosing mesenteritis have had abdominal surgery or trauma to the abdomen. They also may have autoimmune diseases in which the body produces an inappropriate immune response to its own tissues and substances.
