comp. anatomy of abdominal wall and gastrointestinal tract Flashcards
external abdominal oblique
internal abdominal oblique
transversus abdominis
rectus abdominis muscle in layers of rectus sheath
muscles of the abdominal sheath
tunica flava
yellow fascia of abdomen
linea alba
at the midline of the abdomen
the peritoneal cavity has 2 layers
parietal and visceral layers
t/f horses are monogastric. The only adaptation they have for fermentation is the significant expansion of the cecum and ascending colon.
true
The equine stomach is divided into
glandular and non-glandular
What structure divides the equine stomach
margo plicatus
the non-glandular portion of the horse stomach will have a dilation termed
saccus cecus = blind sac
The greater omentum arises from
greater curvature of the stomach
pylorus is assoc. with the
duodenum
The duodenum receives bile and pancreatic fluid from
liver and pancres
t/f horses have gallbladders
FLASE
the duodenum transforms in
jejunum
The jejunum transforms in
ileum
Ileum attaches to the cecum by the
ileocecal junction delineated by the ileocecal fold and ileal papilla
the cecum is divided into
base
body
apex
the ascending colon is very large and is attached to the cecum by
cecolic junction
the ascending colon, past the cecolic juntion is divided in 7 portions
right ventral colon
sternal flexure
left ventral colon
pelvic flexure
left dorsal colon
diaphragmatic flexure
right dorsal colon
Ascending colon turns into
transverse colon
transverse colon turn into
descending colon
accesory GI organs
liver
pancreas
spleen
t/f Eq. do not have gall bladder but the biliary tree will remain intact
true
the hepatic duct will empty into a common bile duct into the
dudenum
The pancreas is situated in the
mesoduodenum
The pancreas possesses pancreatic ducts emptying into the
duodenum
The spleen in Eq. is located in which side of the body
LEFT
NEPHROSPLENIC LIGAMENT
CONNECTS THE SPLEEN WITH THE LEFT KIDNEY
The cecum, RVC, LVC, transverse colon, and descending colon posses
sacculation or haustra
pelvic flexure of ascending colon is located ventral to
left tuber coaxae
located along the distal ends of ribs 6-15
left and right dorsal colon
located dorsally but under the proximal aspect of the
last 3 ribs on the left
theliver is sligtly posiotioned to the right at proximal midel level of ribs ____ and is accessible in the ___ rib for ultrasound
6-15
12-14
teniae
bands of smooth m. to distinguish part of the intestinal tract
torsions occur because
there are part of the gastrointestinal tract that have longer mesenteries
common sites of GI torsions
jejunum= epiploic entrapment
Distal left ventral colon, pelvic flexure, proximal left dorsal colon
apex of the cecum
common sites for impacrion of ingesta
ileocecal and cecocolic junctions
pelvic flexure
trnasiiton between right dorsal colon into transverse colon
porcine are
monogastric
porcine stomach posses a
gastric diverticulum witin fundus
torus pyloricus is found at the
junction of pylorus and duodenum
in porcine, the ascending colon is also called
spiral colon
