Q

What are 2 ways you can get into the lesser sac?

A

Lesser sac (post) and the greater sac (ant) are created by the ligaments
On L: gastrosplenic
On R: gastrohepatic

Q

What are connects the sup + inf mesenteric arteries

Proper hepatic
1. Into liver via hepato-duo lig (portal triad)
2. R gastric art (lesser curve)
Gastroduo art
1. R gastroepip (greater curve, L coming from splenic)

Q

What are the 3 veins that varices are trying to get access to for shunting

A

GOAL = direct drain into IVC
Esophagus - back up into L gastric so get into azygos
Caput medusae - open paraumbilical veins into small epigastric veins
Anorectal varices - back up into sup rectal to get into middle inf rectal

Q

A/LN/V and cancer above the pectinate line

A

A: sup rectal (IMA)

17
Q

A/N/V/LN and cancer below the pectinate line

A

A: inf rectal (int pudendal) - ↓BS post causes anal fissure
V: inf rectal -> internal iliac -> IVC (↑bioavail for drugs)
LN: superficial inguinal
N: pudendal nerve = somatic innervation = painful hemroid
SCC (HPV)

18
Q

What do Ito cells? What organ?

A

Liver
Store vit A
Produce ECM

19
Q

Which zone liver affected by metabolic toxins

A

3

This is where p450 is - activates the drugs therefore ↑est risk damage

20
Q

Zone for alcoholic vs viral hepatitis

A

1 - viral

3 - alcoholic (p450)

21
Q

Zone for yellow fever

A
2
Yellow fever = flavi (+ssRNA) 
Back pain
Jaundice
Bloody stool 
Aedes mosquito, live atten vaccine
22
Q

Role of Kupffer

A

Liver macrophages

Breakdown RBCs to make BR

23
Q

Structures in the femoral triangle vs sheath

A

NAVL
Triangle = N, A, V
Sheath = A, V, deep inguinal LN in femoral canal
Go medial for central venous access

24
Q

What is the double duct sign

A

Stone obstructs ampulla vater

See the main and accessory pancreatic ducts dialted

25
Q

3 parts Hesselbach triangle

A

Rectus ab
Inf epigastric vessels
Inguinal ligament
Why direct hernias are medial to inf epi vessels (vs indirect lateral)

26
Q

What hernia gives you
Hourglass stomach
Fundus stomach into thorax
Entire stomach into thorax

A

Sliding hiatal
Paraesophageal
Hiatal

27
Q

Where are K cells - what do they excrete?

A

D +J
GIP = incretin
↑insulin release
↓gastric acid (stop digesting, we’ve got it down here)
INCRETIN EFFECT is why you get so much more insulin with PO > IV glucose loads

28
Q

Symptoms of a VIPoma

A

VIP stim parasympa (M3) @ sphincters, GB, SI - rest, digest (also how macrolides stim GI motility)
Watery diarrhea
HypoK
Achlorhydria

29
Q

Fxn secretin

A

↑bicarb from pancreas to make SI more basic for enzymes to work

30
Q

Where does CCK vs secretin work in the pancreas?

A

CCK @ acinar cells - ↑secretions

Secretin @ ductal cells - ↑bicarb

31
Q

Enzyme for protein digestion

A

Pepsin from chief cells in stomach

Acid in stomach activates - therefore protein digestion starts in stomach

32
Q

2 ways vagus ↑acid secretion

A

ACh @ parietal cells
GRP = gastrin releasing peptide @ G cells (duo) -> gastrin into circulation to bind parietal and #1 ECL cells (release H)

33
Q

3 phases of acid secretion

A
  1. Cephalic = small, thought, taste - vagus
  2. Gastric = stomach distension - gastrin
  3. Intestinal ↓acid via YY peptide from ECL cells
34
Q

SI BB enzymes that activate trypsin

A

Enterokinase

Enteropeptidase

35
Q

What 2 AAs do bile acids get conj to making them H2O sol?

A

Glycine or taurine

36
Q

What enzyme is the rate lim step of bile acid synthesis

A

Cholesterol 7alpha hydrox

37
Q

2 SI receptors that absorb monosacc

A

SGLT1 - glucose + galactose
Na co-trans (use the Na gradient)
GLUT 5 - facilitated diffusion fructose

38
Q

Enzyme that converts UCBR into CBR in the liver to make H2O sol

A

UDP glucuronosyl transferase
Gut bacteria convert CBR -> urobili
Stercobilin - feces
Urobilin - urine

39
Q

Which fold failures cause omphalocele + gastroschisis vs bladder exstrophy

A

O/G - lateral fold closure defect

Bladder out - caudal fold closure defect

40
Q

Cause jejunal and ileal atresia

A

Disrupt mesenteric vessels -> ischemic necrosis
Triple bubble or apple peel
Vs duodenal atresia = fail recanalize
Double bubble

41
Q

Exposure to macrolide ↑risk what

A

Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
1st born males too
Olive mass 2-6 wks after bith
PROJECTILE vomiting

42
Q

Fore vs mid vs hind gut derivatives

A

Fore - mouth -> duodenum (celiac art)
Mid - duodenum -> prox 2/3 transverse (SMA)
Herniates through umbilical ring to grow
Hind - to above the pectinate (IMA)
