Q

the fore gut and the midgut split at the ___ ___ ____

25
bc the distal duodenum and the pancreas become pressed against the posterior abdominal wall as the stomach rotates and their mesenteries fuse with the parietal peritoneum, they are considered ____ ____
secondarily retroperitoneal
26
the _____ _____ emerges ventrally from the endoderm of the distal ______ (week #__), grows superiorly toward septum transversum and gives rise to ____, ___ ___, and ___ ___
- hepatic diverticulum - fore gut (week #4) - liver, gall bladder, and bile ducts
27
the pancreas emerges from the distal fore gut as two ______ ____
endodermal buds *dorsal bud and ventral bud
28
what causes the fusing of the ventral and dorsal buds of the pancreas?
the rotation of the duodenum
29
what two things does the ventral bud become?

30
duct that is the distal portion of the bud duct and the ventral bud duct
main pancreatic duct
31
duct that is the proximal dorsal bud duct
accessory pancreatic duct
32
a(n) ____ ____ occurs with the ventral buds of the pancreas fail to fuse during rotation and wrap oppositely around the duodenum and fuse with each other, forming an ___ ____
- annular pancreas | - obstructive ring
33
what are the 6 derivatives of the midgut?
- distal 1/2 of duodenum (just after major duodenal papilla) - jejunum - ileum - cecum and appendix - ascending colon - proximal 2/3 transverse colon
34
what is the connection between midgut and yolk sac
vitalline duct
35
what three things are in the cranial limb of the midgut?
- distal duodenum - jejunum - proximal ileum
36
what 4 things are in the caudal limb of the midgut?
- distal ileum - cecum + appendix - ascending colon - proximal 2/3 transverse colon
37
____ ____ in the abdominal cavity leads to temporary herniation of midgut loop into the proximal umbilical cord, causing ___ ____ ____
- insufficient room - physiological umbilical hernia *week 6-10
38
a ____ _____ is a persisting umbilical hernia within the ____ umbilical cord
- congential omphalocoele | - proximal
39
congenital omphalocoeles are often associated with _____ malformations (chromosomal abnormalities) so mortality rates are _____
- severe | - high
40

- 6 - 90 - counterclockwise rotation - SMA
43
the second midgut rotation occurs at week ___ and is a ____ degree _____ rotation to bring the intestines into normal position
- 10 - 180 - counterclockwise rotation
44
the ascending and descending colon become ____ ____ due to their dorsal mesenteries being lost after fusing with the parietal peritoneum of the posterior abdominal wall
secondarily retroperitoneal
45

- urogenital septum | - small
58
____ ____ affects variable portions of the bowel where the neural crest cells fail to migrate to form the enteric nervous system -the a ganglionic portion constricts, bowel distends proximal to constriction, can lead to severe constipation/ failure to thrive
