Blood supply of foregut?
Celiac trunk
Blood supply of mid gut?
Superior mesenteric artery, abdominal aorta
Blood supply of hindgut?
Inferior mesenteric artery
Derivatives of foregut?
Oesophagus, stomach, duodenum (proximal to the entrance of the bile duct), liver, gall bladder, pancreas
Adult derivatives of midgut?
Duodenum, jejenum, ileum, ascending colon, caecum, proximal 2/3 transverse colon.
Adult derivatives of hindgut?
Distal 2/3 transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, rectum, upper anal canal, internal lining of bladder and urethra.
Blood supply of pancreas?
Celiac trunk AND superior mesenteric artery
Blood supply of duodenum?
Celiac trunk (prox to bile duct entrance) SMA (distal to bile duct entrance)
What does the intra-embryonic coelom become?
Divided into thoracic and abdominal cavities by the diaphragm
Where is dorsal mesentery present? Where is ventral present?
Dorsal is present in all fore mid and hind gut areas. Ventral is present only in the foregut region.
What is secondary retroperitoneal?
Structures that began invested with peritoneum but with more growth lose it by fusing to posterior abdominal wall
What is the greater omentum formed from?
Dorsal mesentery
What is the lesser omentum formed from?
Ventral mesentery
Where is the greater omentum present?
Hangs from the greater curvature of the stomach
Where is the lesser omentum?
Runs from liver to the lesser curvature of the stomach
