Anatomy of gall bladder

Question 1

Region of abdomen?

Answer 1

Right hypochondrial region

Question 2

Sections of gallbladder (superior to inferior)

Answer 2

Fundus
Body
Neck

Question 3

Biliary tree (+ function for gallbladder)

Answer 3

Series of gastrointestinal ducts

Allows newly synthesises bile (from liver) to be concentrated + stored in the gallbladder

Question 4

Biliary tree

Answer 4

Common Hepatic duct + Cystic duct 
Common Bile duct
Pancreatic Duct 
Ampulla of Vater 
(Empties into duodenum via major duodenal papilla) - gaurded by sphincter of Oddi

Question 5

Arterial supply

Answer 5

Coeliac Trunk → Common Hepatic Artery → Right Hepatic Artery → Cystic Artery → Gallbladder

Question 6

Venous drainage of neck

Answer 6

Gallbladder → Cystic Veins → Hepatic Portal Vein

Question 7

Venous drainage of fundus + body

Answer 7

Via Hepatic Sinusoids

Question 8

Parasympathetic innervation

Answer 8

via Vagus Nerve
Produces contraction of gallbladder
Contraction = bile into cystic duct + relaxation of sphincter of Oddi

Question 9

Sympathetic innervation

Answer 9

via Coeliac Plexus + Sensory Fibres

Most of response mediated by circulatory hormone (cholecystokinin) + gustatory response (taste)
