Q

If there is gastric ulcer in the 1st part of the duodenum it can lead to?

A

erosion to the duodenum (1st part) GDA gastroduodenal artery which can lead to hemorrhage.

25
Ruptured posterior duodenal wall ulcer?
gastroduodenal artery
26
Ruptured gastric ulcer on lesser curvature of stomach?
left gastric artery
27
Duodenal ulcer seen in the 1st part can erode
liver, gall bladder and pancreas in its vicinity "pancreatitis".
28
What is seen under diaphragm when there is a ruptured duodenal ulcer?

30
Arterial supply, up to the major duodenal papilla is?
Superior pancreaticoduodenal artery, branch of gastroduodenal artery (celiac trunk).
31
Arterial supply, below the major duodenal papilla is?
Inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery (branch of superior mesenteric artery)
32
For duodenum, venous drainage is
Hepatic portal vein through superior mesenteric and splenic veins.
33
For duodenum, Lymphatic drainage is
Anterior lymphatic vessels drain into pancreaticoduodenal lymph nodes and into pyloric nodes. Posterior lymphatic vessels drain into superior mesenteric lymph nodes.
34
Length of jejunum & ileum?
7 meters (jejunum forms proximal 2/5th)
35
Where does jejunum begin?
It begins at duodenojejunal junction and ileum ends at ileocecal junction.
36
What attaches the jejunum and ileum to the posterior abdominal wall?
Mesentery
37
Jejunum and ileum, arterial supply is from
superior mesenteric artery. Arteries unite to form arterial arcades that give rise to straight arteries (vasa recta)
38
Venous drainage for jejunum and ileum?
Superior mesenteric vein which joins with splenic vein to form portal vein.
39
When you think about quadrants of abdomen, where do you find jejunum?
L U Q Left upper quadrant
40
When you think about quadrants of abdomen, where do you find ileum?
R L Q Right lower quadrant
41
Broad fan shaped fold of peritoneum which suspends jejunum and ileum from the posterior abdominal wall and conveys nutrition and innervation to the small gut?
the mesentery
42
The mesentery presents how many borders? name them?
- 2 - Vertebral border - root - Intestinal border or free border
43
"the mesentery" Name the 6 structures crossed by the root
- third part of duodenum - abdominal aorta - inferior vena cava - right ureter - right psoas major muscle - right sacro-iliac joint
44
Jejunum walls are?
thicker and more vascular
45
Walls of ileum are?
Thinner and less vascular
46
Lumen of jejunum is ?
wider and often empty
47
Lumen of ileum is?
narrow, often loaded
48
Circular folds in jejunum is?
larger, thick and closely set.
49
circular folds in ileum is ?
smaller, sparse
50
villi in jejunum is?
tall, leaf like
51
villi in ileum is ?
short, finger like
52
Peyer patches (lymphoid nodules) in jejunum is
absent
53
Peyer patches (lymphoid nodules) in ileum is ?
present
54
Fat distribution in the mesentery of of jejunum is ?
less
55
Fat distribution in the mesentery of ileum is?
