A

Cardia doesn’t move but part of the fundus and

peritoneum passes through the esophageal hiatus. *Usually no regurgitation

90
Q

Gastric Ulcers Not Responding to Drugs

A

Acid

92
Q

Sympathetic Innervation of Stomach

A

Splanchnic nerves, celiac ganglion, which are to inhibit peristalsis and pyloric contraction and gastric secretion

93
Q

Operation Performed to Correct Gastroesophageal Reflux

A

Fundoplication, upper portion of the stomach (the fundus) is wrapped (plicated)
around the lower portion of the esophagus and anchored securely below the diaphragm

94
Q

Gastritis

A

Inflammation of the gastric mucosa which is erosive or non-erosive, can be chronic or acute (due to infection or toxicity)

95
Q

Hypertriophic Gastritis

A

Giant rugal folds simulating cancer, mucosa is atrophic and associated protein loss, also called Menetrier’s Disease

96
Q

Gastric Ulcers

A

Due to defective mucosal barrier, on the lesser curvature, has a pain which is increased by eating, vagotomy is surgical procedure

97
Q

Vagotomy

A

Treating gastric ulcers not responding to drudger perforated ulcers, control gastric secretion, pylorus, reroute or remove so gastrin production is less
