  • cyt p450–> metabolic toxins
  • alcoholic hepatitis
28
Q

29
Q

diaphragmatic hernia

causes: trauma; congential defect in pleuroperitoneal membrane

mostly on left side (no liver protection)

  • -sliding hiatal hernia (GEJ displaced)
  • -paraesophageal hernia (fundus protrudes)
30
Q

which layer of spermatic cord is direct hernia covered by

A

external spermatic fascia (whereas indirect hernia has all 3 layers)

31
Q

what are the 3 sides of hesselbach triangle

A

inferior epigastric arteries
lateral border of rectus abdominis
inguinal ligament

(where direct hernias are)

32
Q

where is CCK made

A

I cells of duodenum and jejunum

33
Q

where is secretin made and function

A

S cells of duodenum

increases pancreatic bicarb and bile secretion
decreases gastric acid

34
Q

glucose-dep insulinotropic peptide source and function

A

K cells (duodenum, jejunum)

decreases gastric acid secretion
increases insulin release (why oral glucose leads to more insulin release than IV)

35
Q

motilin souce and function

A

small intestine

produce migrating motor complexes during fasting state

36
Q

vasoactive intestinal peptide source and function

A

parasympathetic ganglia in sphincters, gall bladder, and small intestine (vagal stim.)

increases intestinal water and electrolyte secretion
relaxes intestinal smooth muscle and sphincters

37
Q

VIPoma

A

islet pancreatic tumor- secretes VIP

watery diarrhea
hypokalemia
achlorhydria

38
Q

pancreatic secretions types

A

alpha amylase
lipases
proteases
trypsinogen

39
Q

what is high in low flow in pancreatic secretions and what is high in high flow

A

low flow –> high Cl

high flow –> high HCO3

40
Q

apthous ulcer

A

painful superficial ulcer due to stress

gray base surrounded by erythema

41
Q

behcet syndrome

A

recurrent apthous ulcers, genital ulcers, uveitis

due to immune complex vasculitis of small vessels

42
Q

sialadenitis

A

inflammation of salivary gland

stone obstruction –> staph aureus

43
Q

pleomorphic adenoma

A

benign mixed tumor (most in parotid)

chondromyxoid stroma (cartilage) and epithelium (glands)

recurs if not excised completely (irregular border)

44
Q

warthin tumor

A

papillary cystadenoma lymphomastum-

benign, cystic with germinal centers

parotid gland mostly

45
Q

mucoepidermoid carcinoma

A

malignant salivary tumor (parotid)

mucinous and squamous

facial nerve - pain or paralysis

46
Q

lymph node spread in upper 1/3 of esophagus

A

cervical nodes

47
Q

lymph node spread in middle 1/3 of esophagus

A

mediastinal

tracheobronchial

48
Q

lymph node spread in lower 1/3 of esophagus

A

celiac and gastric nodes

49
Q

complications of ulcer

A

—hemorrhage:
if gastric–> lesser curvature–> left gastric artery
if duodenal–> posterior–> gastroduodenal artery

—obstruction

—perforation:
anterior duodenum
free air under diaphragm- referred pain to shoulder

50
Q

vit E deficiency symptoms

A

ataxia
impaired prioception and vibratory sense
hemolytic anemia

look out for some form of malabsorption in anecdote

51
Q

Abetapoproteinemia

A

MTP mutation –> defect in apoliprotein B (absent chylmicrons, VLDL)

–> lipids cant be absorbed –> accumulate in intestinal epithelium –> enterocytes with clear/foamy cytoplasm

–> malabsorption of fat-sol vitamins, neuro problems, acanthocytes

Q

acute hep A on histo

A

hepatocyte ballooning degeneration and apoptosis with mononuclear cell infiltrate
