hepatic flexure of colon (Anatomy)

Synonyms:flexura coli heaptica, hepatic flexure, hepatic flexure of colon, right colic flexure

Description:Hepatic (or the right colic) flexure is the sharp bend between the ascending and the transverse colon. The right colic flexure is adjacent to the liver, and is therefore also known as the hepatic flexure. Thus, the left colic flexure is also known as the splenic flexure (as it is close to the spleen). The hepatic flexure lies in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen in humans.
