It is lined by fetal membranes the main constituent being the extra embryonic mesoderm containing the extra embryonic coelom, it contains the left umbilical vein with right and left umbilical arteries with differentiation of nerves in the extra embryonic mesoderm. The allantois and the vitello intestinal duct are incorporated in the cord at its fetal end.
