Which organ lies in the lateral and posterior portion of the left upper quadrant of the abdomen?

Cecum
Liver
Spleen
Stomach

The correct answer is: Cecum

The liver is located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen, the spleen is in the left upper quadrant but in the anterior portion, and the stomach is in the left upper quadrant, but primarily in the central and anterior regions. This leaves the cecum as the only organ mentioned that is in the lateral and posterior portion of the left upper quadrant of the abdomen. It is located in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen.
