Abstract
The retroperitoneum, a complex anatomical space within the abdominopelvic region, encompasses various vital abdominal organs. It is compartmentalized by fascial planes and contains potential spaces critical in multiple disease processes, including inflammatory effusions, hematomas, and neoplastic conditions. A comprehensive understanding of the retroperitoneum and its potential spaces is essential for radiologists in identifying and accurately describing the extent of abdominopelvic disease. This pictorial review aims to describe the anatomy of the retroperitoneum while discussing commonly encountered pathologies within this region. Through a collection of illustrative images, this review will provide radiologists with valuable insights into the retroperitoneum, facilitating their diagnostic proficiency to aid in appropriate patient clinical management.
