Q

What is recanalization?

A

Hollowing of the primitive gut tube. Done at vacuoles. Errors cause atresia (blockage) or stenosis (narrowing)

Q

What develops off the foregut?

A

Pharyngeal pouches, lower respiratory system, liver, pancreas, gallbladder

17
Q

What creates the curvatures of the stomach?

A

the dorsal border grows faster than the ventral border (creates greater and lesser curvatures)

18
Q

Describe stomach development

A

Rotates 90 degrees along longitudinal axis
Lesser curve moves right
Greater curve moves left
Vagus nerves twist with stomach, R ends up on dorsal surface, L on ventral surface.

19
Q

What is spleen derived from?

A

NOT endoderm. Splanchnic Mesoderm of dorsal mesentary

20
Q

How does the pancreas form?

A

Two buds: one ventral (small) and other dorsal, as it twists they get smacked together to form one pancreas

21
Q

What forms the ducts for liver, pancreas and gallbladder?

A

Solid ventral outgrowths of the duodenum

22
Q

What is an annular pancreas?

A

Pancreas strangling the gut tube due to improper rotation.

23
Q

What does the midgut rotate around during development?

A

Superior mesenteric artery (also the primary artery of midgut)

24
Q

What are the contents of the midgut?

A

Small intestine (besides 1st 1/3 of duodenum), cecum, appendix, ascending colon, proximal 2/3 of transverse colon.

25
Q

Describe midgut rotation

A

Rotates counter-clockwise viewed from ventral side.

26
Q

What errors can occur during midgut development?

A

Non rotation
Mixed rotation and volvulus (blockage due to intestine twisting around itself)
Reversed rotation
Internal hernia (mesentary enclosing intestines)
Midgut volvulus with duodenal obstruction

27
Q

What develops from hindgut

A

urinary bladder and most of urethra

28
Q

What are the contents of the hindgut?

A

distal 1/3 of transverse colon, descending colon, rectum, superior part of anal canal

29
Q

What does the urorectal septum divide?

A

Allantois and yolk stalk. Separates cloaca into urogenital membrane and anal membrane.

30
Q

What is the pectinate line and some significant features of it?

A

Separates anal canal into endoderm (above) and ectoderm (below). No pain receptors above the lie. Above the drainage and innervation is same as hindgut. Below is abdominal wall.

31
Q

Rectourethral fistula clinical presentation

A

Peeing feces due to connection of rectum and urethra

32
Q

Rectovaginal fistual clinical presentation

A

Feces coming out of vagina due to connection of rectum and vagina.
