A

duodenum (last two-thirds) - secondary

33
Q

A

pancreas - secondary

34
Q

ureters

35
Q

kidneys - primary

37
Q

The E in SAD PUCKER

A

esophagus - primary

38
Q

The R in SAD PUCKER

A

rectum - primary

39
Q

What four structures is the foregut composed of?

A

1) pharynx
2) esophagus
3) stomach
4) 1st third of duodenum

40
Q

Outpocketings of the foregut gives rise to which structures (5)?

A

1) pharyngeal pouches
2) lower respiratory system
3) liver
4) pancreas
5) gallbladder

41
Q

True or False. Both esophagus and trachea develops from one common tube

A

true

42
Q

What is the difference between atresia and fistula of the esophagus and trachea?

A

Atresia is caused by blockage due to narrowing of closing leading to the esophagus becoming a dead end
Fistula is the joining of both the esophagus and trachea. This condition is worst because food goes into the airway

43
Q

True or False. Dorsal border of the stomach grows slower than the ventral border.

A

FALSE. Dorsal grows faster.

44
Q

Which border, dorsal or ventral, gives rise to the greater curvature of the stomach?

A

dorsal

45
Q

Which border, dorsal or ventral, gives rise to the lesser curvature of the stomach?

A

ventral

46
Q

What kind of rotation does the stomach undergo during development?

A

90 degrees clockwise along the longitudinal axis

47
Q

Which curvature moves to the right? Which to the left?

A

Lesser - R

Greater - L

48
Q

True or False. R and L vagus nerves do not rotate with the stomach

A

FALSE. They rotate with the stomach as well, that’s why R vagus is on the dorsal surface and L vagus is on the ventral surface of the stomach

49
Q

_____ ends just distal to the common bile duct

A

foregut

50
Q

Solid ventral outgrowths of the _____ form the ducts for the liver, pancreas and gall bladder

A

duodenum

51
Q

Pancreas forms two buds, which is the shorter bud and which is the longer bud?

A

Ventral - shorter bud

Dorsal - longer bud

52
Q

How does the pancreas become its adult shape?

A

As the rotation occur, the two buds slap on top of each other

53
Q

How is the spleen form?

A

outpocketing of the mesoderm in the dorsal mesentery

54
Q

What is this condition called? Ring of pancreas around gut tube, blockage of small intestine = deformities

A

annular pancreas

55
Q

True or False. The spleen is derived from the same germline as the stomach and pancreas

A

FALSE.
spleen - mesoderm
stomach and pancreas - endoderm

56
Q

What five structures is the midgut composed of?

A

1) small intestine (exclude 1st third of duodenum)
2) cecum
3) appendix
4) ascending colon
5) proximal two-thirds of transverse colon

57
Q

What is the condition called when there’s too much amniotic fluid?

A

polyhydraminos

58
Q

What is allantois?

A

aminotic fluid (baby pee)

59
Q

What type of rotation does the midgut undergo during development?

A

rotation of the intestines counter-clockwise around the SMA (supercoil)

60
Q

As midgut grow in length, what is its axis and what is its apex?

A

axis - SMA

apex - yolk stalk

61
Q

How does the midgut cause secondary retroperitoneal configuration?

A

rotations of the midgut press many organs against the posterior body wall, the peritoneum fuses to the dorsal body wall

62
Q

What is volvulus and what are some causes?

A

twisting of the intestines around a focal point, can be with itself or other structures

63
Q

What are the five structures that composes the hindgut?

A

1) distal third of transverse colon
2) descending colon
3) sigmoid colon
4) rectum
5) superior portion of anal canal

64
Q

Outgrowth of the hindgut gives rise to which structures?

A

1) urinary bladder

2) most of the urethra

65
Q

What is the urorectal septum?

A

1) divides allantois and yolk stalk

2) separates cloaca into urogenital membrane and anal membrane

66
Q

What separates caudal hindgut from proctodeum?

A

anal membrane

67
Q

What germ layer is derived from above the pectinate line?

A

endoderm

68
Q

What germ layer is derived from below the pectinate line?

A

ectoderm

69
Q

How do drainage and innervation differ in tissues above and below pectinate line?

A

above - drainage and innervation = hindgut

below - drainage and innervation = abdominal wall

70
Q

Which condition is this, anus still has membrane over it?

A

non-perforate anus

71
Q

Which condition is this, anal canal is not at the anal pit?

A

anoperineal fistula

72
Q

Which condition is this, anal canal has fused with urethra?

A

rectourethral fistula

73
Q

Which condition is this, anal canal has fused with vagina?

A

rectovaginal fistula
