text: The large intestine differs from the small intestine in several ways: it has a greater calibre; for most of its course it is more fixed in position; its longitudinal muscle, though a complete layer, is concentrated into three longitudinal bands, taeniae coli, in all but the distal sigmoid colon and rectum; small adipose projections, appendices epiploicae, are scattered over the free surface of the whole colon (they tend to be absent from the caecum, vermiform appendix and rectum); the colonic wall is puckered into sacculations (haustrations), which may partly be due to the presence of the taeniae coli, and which may be demonstrated on plain radiographs as incomplete septations arising from the bowel wall.
