abdomen 2 Flashcards
branches of SMA
Intestinal (jejunal and ileal) branches
Inferior pancreaticoduodenal arteries
Middle colic artery
Right colic artery
Ileocolic artery
Appendicular artery
branches of IMA
Left colic artery
Sigmoid arteries
Superior rectal artery
marginal artery is made of
anastomes between
right colic
left colic
middle colic
there are less arcases and longer rects near the
jejunum
there are more arcades and shorter vasa recta near the
ileum
inferior pancreaticoduodenal arteries supply
the pancreas and duodenum and anastomose with the superior pancreaticoduodenal arteries
the middle colic supplies
transverse colon
right colic artery travel
to right to supply the ascending colon
ileocolic artery travels
toward the ileocecal junction to supply the distal ileum and cecum
the appendicular artery
is a branch of the ileocolic artery that supplies the appendix
left colic travels
travels to the left to supply the descending colon
sigmoid artery
is often present as several branches that supply the sigmoid colon
superior rectal artery
descends to supply the superior part of the rectum
hepatic portal vein
formed by splenic vein and superior mesenteric vein joining together, the inferior mesenteric vein drains into the splenic
cranial parasympathetic outflow to the abdominal viscera
Preganglionic parasympathetic neuron arises from brainstem
Conveyed in vagus nerve (CN X)
Innervates gut tube until the splenic flexure
Sacral parasympathetic outflow to abdominal viscera:
Preganglionic parasympathetic neuron arises from S2-S4
Conveyed in pelvic splanchnic nerves
Innervates gut tube distal to the splenic flexure
vagus nerve
Carries preganglionic parasympathetic neurons from the brainstem to the stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, appendix, ascending colon, and transverse colon
