Embro: Digestive System and Peritoneal Membranes Flashcards
What are the 4 germ layers found in the GI system?
1. Endoderm
2. Splanchnic mesoderm
3. Neural crest cells
4. Ectoderm
The digestive system is made up of endoderm, ectoderm, splanchnic mesderm and NCC.
What does the endoderm make?
All epithelium, except the mouth and anal canal.
The digestive system is made up of endoderm, ectoderm, splanchnic mesderm and NCC.
What does the ectoderm make?
- Mouth (from the 1st arch)
- Anal canal
The digestive system is made up of endoderm, ectoderm, splanchnic mesderm and NCC.
What does the splanchnic mesoderm make?
- Smooth muscle
- Connective tissue
The digestive system is made up of endoderm, ectoderm, splanchnic mesderm and NCC.
What does the NCC make?
Autonomic ganglia
The endoderm is divided into three sections, the foregut, midgut and hingut. What divides them into sections?
yolk sac
What is made from foregut? (7)
- Pharynx
- ESO
- Respiratory system
- stomach
- Liver/pancreas
- Biliary apparatus
- Proximal duodenum
What is made from midgut? (4)
- SI, starting at the major duodenal papilla of the duodenum
- Cecum and appendix
- Ascending colon
- Right half of the transverse colon
What is made from hindgut? (5)
- left half of transverse colon,
- descending colon,
- sigmoid colon,
- rectum,
- superior anal canal
What are the main vessesl for foregut, midgut and hindgut?
celiac
superior mesenteric artery
inferior mesenteric artery
TE fistula abnormality: what happens?
-
Failure of the tracheoesophogeal folds –> midline–> and form the tracheoesophogeal septum at week 5.
*
What are the two types of TE fistula?
- Esophageal atresia--> blind end ESO
- TE fistual–> abnormal passage between trachea and ESO
Where does the skeletal and smooth muscle of the esophagus come from?
skeletal–> mesoderm of the pharyngeal arch 4/6
smooth–> splanchnic layer of lateral plate
What is the best cause for TE fistula prenatally and what can be seen at birth?(6)
Remember this can be diagnosed by seeing coiling of a NG tube
Prenatally: polyhydramnios
Birth: coughing, gagging, cyanosis, vomiting, drooling
During the 4th week the stomach grows, faster on the dorsal surface.
How does it rotate and what are the degrees?
@ wk 4:
- Stomach grows faster on the dorsal surface, growing larger and forming an out-pocket.
- Rotate 90 on its longitudinal axis
- Ventral part–> right
- Right part–> dorsal
- Dorsal part–> left
- Left part–> ventral
- Rotation occurs at the AP axis
- cranial end goes inferior and to the left
- Inferior end goes superior and to the right
Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is very common, is when circular and some longitudinal muscles of the pylorus hypertrophy. What is the presentation? (3)
- immediate PROJECTILE vomiting that is nonbilious right after eating
- Small stool
- Cannot gain weight–> may lose weight
What vertebral level/ plane is the pylorus of the stomach at?
L1
Hepatic diverticulum gives rise to what 3 things?
liver, gallbladder and ventral pancreatic bud
In reference to the SEPTUM TRANSVERSUM, where do the liver and GB form?
Liver grows superiorly of the septum transversum.
GP splits off and will then fuse to the liver
Stroma and other cells (cupler cells) in the liver come from where?
mesoderm
Liver and biliary system all come from where?
SINGLE DIVERTICULUM: HEPTATIC DIVERTICULUM
- Liver is a ______ organ: makes _____.
- Bile is made by wk ____.
- Hematopeisis: occurs during wk___- wk___
- hematopoetic cells come from ______
Liver is a hematopoetic organ: makes RBC.
Bile is made by wk 12.
Hemtopeisis: wk6- wk 30
hematopoetic cells come from mesoderm
How does the pancreas form?
The pancreas begins as two buds: ventral pancreatic bud (from the hepatic diverticulum) and the dorsal pancreatic bud.
- Duodenum rotates right–> moving the VPB dorsally
- VPB will fuse with the DPB
- Ventral primordia will make the [head and uncinate process]
- Dorsal primordia will make [some of the head and tail]
What does the main pancreatic duct make?
ventral duct
What is annular pancreas, which presents with similar symptoms as pyloric stenosis except with bilious vomit if it is below the bile duct, without if it is above bile duct?
there is a bifed ventral pancreatic bud,
which wraps around the duodenum and obstructs it.
many patients are asymptionic tho
What determines if the annular pancreas will produce bilious vommitting?
Depends on the location of the stenosis
