Q

Cirrhosis is a consequence of chronic liver disease characterized by replacement of liver tissue by [] , [] and [] , leading to loss of liver function. [3]

What do the sinuses look like? [1]

A

Cirrhosis is a consequence of chronic liver disease characterized by replacement of liver tissue by fibrosis, scar tissue and regenerative nodules leading to loss of liver function.

Wavy sinuses: increases vascular resistance

18
Q

Oesophageal Varices occur at the anastomoses of which two veins? [2]

At the [] junction [1]

A

left gastric vein with oesophageal veins at Gastro-oesophageal junction

19
Q

Variceal bleeding is the most severe complication of [] and is the second most common cause of mortality among the patients

A

Variceal bleeding is the most severe complication of cirrhosis and is the second most common cause of mortality among the patients

21
Q

Which vein does NOT drain directly into the inferior vena cava?

Left renal vein
Splenic vein
Right hepatic vein
Right testicular vein

A

Which vein does NOT drain directly into the inferior vena cava?

Left renal vein
Splenic vein
Right hepatic vein
Right testicular vein

The splenic vein drains into the portal system, which in turn empties into the inferior vena cava.

22
Q

Which of the following is not a tributary to the splenic vein?

Short gastric veins
Pancreatic veins
Left gastric vein
Left gastro-omental vein

A

Which of the following is not a tributary to the splenic vein?

Short gastric veins
Pancreatic veins
Left gastric vein
Left gastro-omental vein

The left gastric vein is a tributary of the portal vein.

23
Q

What does this CT show?

A

Ascites

24
Q

Explain mech. of portal htn causing ascites

A
25
Q

Why does hepatic portal HTN cause splenomegaly? [1]

A

increased HPV pressure causes blood to back up into spleen causing enlargement

26
Q

What causes caput medusae?

A

portal hypertension leading to re-canalisation of ligamentum teres

27
Q
A

A: cystic duct
B: common hepatic duct
C: Right hepatic duct
D: Left hepatic duct
E: Common bile duct

28
Q

Bile is produced by which cells? [1]

Describe the flow of bile from these cells to the gall bladder [2]

A

bile produced by hepatocytes in sinusoids and flows through bile canalliculi into bile ducts

R and L hepatic bile ducts > common hepatic duct > gall bladder

29
Q
A
30
Q

Gall stone in common bile duct causes which symptoms? [2]
Why? [1]

A

jaundice with biliary colic

bile blocked from leaving liver and gall bladder

31
Q

Gall stones in gall bladder causes which symptoms? [1]

A

often asymptomatic

32
Q

Gall stones in gall bladder causes which symptoms? [1]

A

often asymptomatic

33
Q

What symptoms would occur from this situ? [2]

A

Stone blocks bile leaving the gall bladder, when gall bladder contracts,

RUQ pain AND Bilary colic

(Biliary colic happens when the gallbladder contracts and causes a gallstone to temporarily block the duct).

34
Q

What is cholechystitis and what is it caused by? [2]

A

Acute inflammation of gall bladder: usually caused by gall stone obstructing bile flow

35
Q

Why does jaundice occur if gall stone occurs in common bile duct?

A

Stone blocks bile leaving the gall bladder and the Liver.

So bilirubin in bile is not able to be broken down

accumulates in blood causing jaundice and biliary colic.

36
Q

What symptoms would occur here? [3]

A

biliary colic, jaundice and pancreatitis

37
Q

Portosystemic Anastomoses at the Esophagus is made from? [2]

A

splenic (HPV) and azygous veins (IVC)

38
Q

Caput meduase is caused by htn in anastomoses in which two veins?

A

Paraumbilical veins (ligamentum teres recanalised)

Intercostal and inferior epigastric veins

39
Q

Label A-F

A

A: splenic artery
B: gastroduodenal artery
