30
Q

the septum transversum ultimately becomes what (in relation to liver and diaphragm)?

A

central tendon of diaphragm

31
Q

the liver is enclosed in what?

visceral peritoneum of ventral mesentery

32
Q

the part of the liver not covered by visceral peritoneum is called what

A

bare area

33
Q

the gallbladder and ventral pancreatic bud arise from what?

A

hepatic diverticulum

34
Q

dorsal pancreas develops as a bud off of what?

A

dorsal surface of developing duodenum

35
Q

the common stay of the liver and gall bladder becomes what?

A

common bile duct

36
Q

as the foregut rotates to the right what happens to duodenum

A

duodenum becomes C-shaped and ends up to the right of midline

37
Q

as the foregut rotates to the right what happens to pancreas and bile duct and why

A

the pancreas and bile duct migrate dorsally

due to duodenum growing more quickly on the dorsal wall coupled with rotation

38
Q

during what week do the two pancreatic buds fuse

A

6th week

39
Q

the ventral pancreatic bud becomes what?

A

head and uncinate process

40
Q

the dorsal pancreatic bud becomes what.

A

body and tail of pancreas

41
Q

42
Q

Annular pancreas (what is it, what causes it, why is it significant)

A

rare congenital abnormality characterized by a ring of pancreatic tissue that encircles the descending portion of the duodenum
thought to originate from incomplete rotation of the pancreatic ventral bud
pancreatic tissue can constrict the duodenum and obstruct the intestine

A

as an independent condensation of mesoderm between layers of the dorsal mesentery of the stomach

47
Q

the confused part of the dorsal mesentery that extends posterior to the spleen becomes what?

A

splenorenal ligament

48
Q

physiological umbilical herniation

A

normal

as the midgut elongates the intestinal loops project into the umbilical cord

49
Q

Gastroschisis

A

ventral body wall defect that results in herniation of intestinal loops into the amniotic cavity
due to failure of the body wall to close

50

descending colon

60
Q

midgut-hindgut transition (where does it occur)

the cloaca is divided into what?

64
Q

what divides the cloaca

A

growing urogenital septum between the hindgut and allantois

65
Q

proctodeum (what is it)

A

an indentation of the body wall

forms distal opening of tube as septum grows

66
Q

what happens to the proctodeum as the septum grows

A

pushes inward toward the anorectal cannot form the distal opening of the tube

67
Q

fully formed anal canal is derived from what

A

cloaca (part of embryonic hindgut)

proctodeum (part of body wall)

68
Q

the separation of the two region of the anal canal is called what?

A

the pectinate line

69
Q

below the pectinate line where does the anal canal receive blood and innervation from?

A

innervated by spinal nerves

70
Q

above the pectinate line where does the anal canal receive blood and innervation from?

A

inferior mesenteric artery

autonomic nerves

71
Q

what about the anal canal is important in understanding a variety of clinical conditions from rectal cancer to hermorrhoids

A

knowing about dual innervation, blood supply, and lymphatic drainage
