How can an infection travel from the supracolic to infracolic compartments?
- Right and Left paracolic gutters
- left paracolis gutter cannot flow cranially due to restrictions of the phrenicocolic ligament
Infection or inflammation of the peritoneal cavity
Peritonitis
Adhesiotomy
surgical separation of the adhesions of fibrous peritoneum
Intraperitoneal injections/peritoneal dialysis
Therefore anesthetic agents may be injected into the peritoneal cavity by IP (intra-peritoneal) injections.
During renal failure, waste products will start to accumulate in the blood and tissues which can ultimately reach fatal levels. Soluble substances and water can be removed through peritoneal dialysis by introducing a dilute sterile solution allowing it to flow through the cavity, and after a period of time it is removed. Peritoneal dialysis is only a temporary solution, more long term situations it is preferred to use direct blood flow through a renal dialysis machine.
Foregut, midgut, and hind gut arteries
celiac (stomach liver gallbladder), SMA (small intestines cecum ascending colon), IMA (colon rectum)
arterial supply of the esophagus
left gastric artery esophageal branch
Liver cirrosis can cause what venous issue?
- esophageal varices
- as the portal venous blood is shunted into the caval system using portosystemic anastomoses
- paraumbilical veins (tributary to portal vein) and epigastric veins (draining into systemic circulation) in the anterior abdominal wall
sensory and motor innervation of the esophagus is by the
vagus nerve
where the esophagus enters the stomach
cardia
Retroperitoneal organs
rest of duodenum, ascending colon, descending colon, middle part of rectum, pancreatic head and body, kidneys, adrenals, IVC, aorta
Stomach para and sympathetic innervation
- The parasympathetic nerve supply from the anterior and posterior vagal trunks and their branches
- The sympathetic nerve supply is from T6-T9 segments of spinal cord which passes to celiac plexus via the greater splanchnic nerves.
gallbladder arterial supply
cystic artery
spleens job
- Filtration of blood (immune system)
- Storage of white blood cells
- Recycles red blood cells

What was the vestige of ligamentum theres hepatis
obliterated umbilical vein
In the supine position, fluid draining from the omental bursa flows into this recess
hepatorenal recess
is a typical dissection point for hilar bile ducts
