Q

Anatomical basis of hematemesis, spider nevi and caput medusae? (3)

A
  1. Blood from portal venous system is shunted to the periumbilical veins manifesting as dilated paraumbilical collateral veins pattern similar to the head of Medusa.
  2. As the pressure in the portal vein rises , blood flow in the portocaval anastomoses reverses causing portal blood to enter the systemic circulation.
  3. Blood flow forms anastomoses at the inferior end of the esophagus to produce esophageal varices.

Q

Cause of ascites? (3)

A
  1. Increased pressure in the portal vein results in the increase in the pressure in the splenic and superior and inferior mesenteric veins.
  2. Fluid is forced out of the capillary beds into the peritoneal cavity.
  3. Portal hypertension causes protein containing liquid to leak from the surface of the liver to accumulate in the peritoneal cavity.

Q

Methods to reduce portal blood pressure? (2)

A

29
Q

Anatomical changes in the hepatic parenchymal cells in liver cirrhosis? (3)
