20
Q

What is the origin of the common hepatic artery?

A

Coeliac trunk

21
Q

What are the branches o fit ecommon hepatic artery?

A

Gastroduodenal, RIght hepatic, left heptic

22
Q

what are the bifurcation o the richt hepatic artery?

A

Anterior and posterior branches of the right hepatic artery

23
Q

Where does the right hepatic artery run?

A

Posterior t the hepatic bile duct

24
Q

What veins form the hepatic portal vein?

A

SMV ad Splenic veins

25
What 3 structures form the portal canal?
Portal vein, hepatic artery and tributaries to he bible ducts
26
Where does lymph from the liver drain?
To 3 or 4 nodes around the portal hepatis
27
What are the contents of the portal hepatic?
Hepatic bile duct, Hepatic artery ad portal vein
28
What is the arrangement of the hepatic lobule?
Central vein in the centre, with 6 portal triads at each point of a hexagon
29
Where does bile originate and where does it run?
Synthesised by the hepatocytes, it runs away from the central vein and towards the portal triad
30
Wha are the hepatic sinusoids
Grooves between the cords of hepatocytes, lined ty fenestrate endothelium
31
What is special about hepatic endothelium?
Contains kupffer cells and fenestrations
32
Outline the bile pathway through the liver
Made by hepatocytes }-> collected in the canaliculi }-> along the portal canals in the bile duct tributaries ]-> then to the right and left heatic ducts, emerging at porta hepatis }-> joining of right and left hepatic ducts form the common hepatic duct
33
What is the function of the gallbladder?
Stores and concentrates the bile secreted by the liver
34
What is the shape of the gallbladder?
globular and pear shaped with a fundus, body and neck
35
The ___ artery, which originates from the ____ ____ artery, supplies the gallbladder
The cystic artery, which originates from the right hepatic artery, supplies the gallbladder
36
The boundaries of Calot's triangle are as follows:
Visceral surface of the liver, common hepatic duct and cystic duct
37
why is the cystic artery of clinical importance?
it must be ligated prior to cholecysctomy
38
Name the 3 parts of the common bile duct and their relations
Supraduodenal: lies on the free edge of the lesser omentum Retroduodenal: posterior to the first part of the duodenum Pancreatic: feeds into the duodenum and is joined by the pancreatic duct
39
What is the hepatopancreatic ampulla?
A swelling in the common bile duct just after it has joined the pancreatic duct
40
what is the sphincter of Oddi?
A ring of smooth muscle on the common bile just proximal to the hepatopancreatic ampulla. It is therefore located just before the common bile duct and the pancreatic duct join
41
What are the spiral valves of the cystic duct?
The muscular arrangement of the cystic duct to maintain patency and allow for bile motiliy
42
where is the gall bladder located?
Gall bladder fossa
43
What is thesurace anatomy of the gall bladder's funds?
MCL, 9th costal cartilage
