type C
-esophageal atresia w/ a DISTAL TE fistula
-distal fistula -> abdomen distends (air in GI tract from lungs)
what do you do for child born with fistula or esophageal atresia?
get ECHO & renal US
esophageal atresia in infant
polyhydramnios in mother
hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
- thicken pyloric musculature -> outlet obstruction
- projectile NON-billous vomit
- palpable olive
- DOUBLE BUBBLE sign
Meckel’s Diverticulum
- contains gastric mucosa
- current jelly bleeding
- rule of 2’s -> 2% of population, 2 feet from ileocecal valve, 2 inches or younger, 2 years or younger, 2 different mucosae
Gastroschisis
- paraumbilical defect
- bowel protrudes NOT in sac
- elevated MSAFP
Omphalocele
- midline defect
- bowel contents contained within membrane
Hirschsprung disease
- aganglionic colon
- aut. dominant -> RET mutations
- empty rectal vault
- associated w/ Waardenburg and Downs
- Dx: rectal SUCTION biopsy
achalasia
- failure of LES to relax
- bird beak appearance
- nocturnal regurg and weight loss
- treat with Heller myotomy or per oral endoscopic myotomy
Ogilvie’s syndrome
-if cecal diameter >9cm -> emergency
what can bacteria do to folate & vit. B 12?
bacteria metabolized B12 and produce folate
how is glucose absorbed at brush border?
with Na+ via SGLT1
most common carbohydrate malabsorption disorder
lactose intolerance
-deficiency in lactase enzyme
medium chain TGs
-absorbed directly into portal bloodstream w/o the need for micelles
what do you see with fat malabsorption?
steatorrhea and fat soluble vit. deficiencies
what do you see with protein malabsorption?
edema, ascites, muscle atrophy
small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)
- see bloating and diarrhea
- draw vit. B12 and folate levels -> bacteria eat B12 and produce folate
what happens if you resect terminal ileum?
won’t absorb bile salts
-cholestyramine only works up to 100cm of recection
Crohns disease (IBD)
- creeping fat
- terminal ileum most affected - can be ANY portion of GI tract
- transmural involvement
- cobblestoning mucosa
- ASCA Abs or C-bir1
- diagnosed with CTE + colonoscopy
- smoking makes worse
- granulomas
Ulcerative Colitis (IBD)
- ONLY involves colon
- PSC
- p-ANCA
- bloody diarrhea
- smoking helps
- crypt abscesses
type 1 peripheral arthritis from IBD
- paucyarticular
- associated w/ IBD activity
- LARGE joints
- other extra intestinal manifestations
- self limited
type 2 peripheral arthritis
- polyarticular
- independent of IBD
- SMALL joints
- no association w/ other extra intestinal manifestations
- chronic
ankylosing spondylitis
- HLA-B27 +
- bamboo spine
- Tx: anti-TNF
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
- inflammation/strictures of INTRA and EXTRAhepatic bile ducts
- associated with UC
- p-ANCA +
- associated with cholangiocarcinoma and colorectal carcinoma
- yearly colonoscopy after Dx
Celiac Disease
- immune response to gliadin
- Dermatitis Herpetiformis
- Dx: small bowel biopsies -> distal duodenum
- Tx: gluten free diet
- Anti-gliadin, anti-endomysial, anti-TTG
- HLA-DQ2, HLA-DQ8
- crypt hyperplasia, flattened villi
PUD
-due to H. pylori and NSAIDs
gastric ulcers
-post-prandial pain and weight loss
duodenal ulcers
- eating and antacids help with pain
- weight gain
1st line Treatment for H. pylori
-Clarithromycin (or Macrolide if already taken macrolide)
what do you do for ALL H. pylori gastric ulcers?
follow up EGD
what are you at risk for with H. pylori?
MALT lymphoma
infectious gastritis
- H. pylori most common bacteria
- CMV most common virus
stool osmotic gap
- GAP <50 -> SECRETORY diarrhea w/ more volume
- GAP >100 -> OSMOTIC diarrhea w/ less volume
290 - 2(stool [Na+] + [K+])
cholestryamine
- works up to 100cm resection of terminal ileum
- change to MCT diet w/ >100cm resection
