A

in the free edge of the lesser omentum

111
Q

what is contained within the portal triad

A

the hepatic artery
hepatic portal vein
common bile duct

112
Q

what is the common bile duct part of

A

the common bile duct which is part of the biliary tree linking the stomach to duodenum

113
Q

A

retroperitoneum

114
Q

where does the celiac trunk arise

A

T12

115
Q

what does the celiac trunk supply

A

the organs of the foregut

116
Q

what does the celiac trunk trifurcate into

A

splenic artery
hepatic artery
left gastric artery

117
Q

how is the splenic artery different to most arteries

A

it has a very tortuous course whereas most arteries are relatively straight

118
Q

where is the spleen located

A

its an intraperitoneal organ within the left hypochrondrium

deep to ribs 9-11

119
Q

should you be able to palpate a normal spleen

A

no

120
Q

where does the blood supply to the stomach come mainly from

A

right and left gastric arteries which run along the lesser curvature

121
Q

where does the right and left gastro-omental arteries run

A

along the greater curvature and anastomose together

122
Q

where does the blood supply from the liver come from

A

the hepatic artery

which branches into right and left hepatic artery

123
Q

how can the structure of the liver be described

A

4 anatomical segments or 8 functional segments

124
Q

what are the 4 anatomical segments of the liver

A

right lobe, left lobe, caudate lobe, quadrate lobe

125
Q

how many functional segments does the liver have and what does each segment have

A

8 functional segments and each has its own blood supply (hepatic artery, hepatic portal vein) venous drainage and bile drainage

126
Q

how is venous drainage in the liver carried out

A

venous drainage from the liver is via 3 main hepatic veins to the IVC

127
Q

how are the IVC and hepatic veins different to other veins

A

they lack valves

128
Q

how does the lack of valves in the IVC and hepatic veins affect the liver

A

a rise in central venous pressure is directly transmitted to the liver and the liver can enlarge as it engorges with blood (hepatomegaly)

129
Q

what is contained within a liver lobule

A

central vein in middle and an interlobular portal triad at each corner

130
Q

what are sinusoids like in structure

A

sinusoid is quite like a large capillary

131
Q

what are sinusoids lined by

A

hepatocytes

132
Q

what does the central vein do

A

collects ‘cleaned’ blood and drains into the hepatic veins

133
Q

what are the 2 clinically important areas of the peritonea cavity related to the liver

A
hepatorenal recess (morison's pouch)
subphrenic recess
134
Q

where are the recesses in the liver located

A

in the greater sac

135
Q

when may the hepatorenal recess be of greatest clinical relevance

A

it is one of the lowest parts of the peritoneal cavity when the patient is supine
so pus from an abcess in the subphrenic recess can drain into the hepatorenal recess when a patient is bedridden

136
Q

what does the IVC drain from the liver

A

it drains the cleaned blood from the hepatic veins into the right atrium

what is the ligamentum teres/round ligament a remenant of

A

the embryological umbilical vein

140
Q

where does the gallbladder lie in relation to the duodenum
