extrusion of abdominal contents through abdominal folds but not covered by peritoneum is called?
Gastroschisis
Foregut encompasses what structures?
esophagus to first 1/2 of duodenum
With gastroschisis, what marker is increased?
alpha FP
Midgut encompasses what structures?
2nd 1/2 of duodenum to proximal 2/3 of transverse colon
Hindgut encompasses what structures?
distal 1/3 of transverse colon to anal canal above pectinate line
persistence of herniation of abdominal contents into umbilical cord, sealed by peritoneum is called?
Omphalocele
omphalocele and gastroschisis are both due to what type of defective closure of the anterior abdominal wall?
Lateral fold closure
Pectus excavatum or ectopia cordis due to what type of defective closure of the anterior abdominal wall?
rostral fold closure
Intestinal obstruction in newborn babies who have Down syndrome is due to failure to?
Duodenal atresia due to failure to recanalize. double bubble sign.
Ectopia vesicae is due to
bladder exstrophy is due to Caudal fold closure failure
Bonus q: polyhydramnios is seen with which congenital intestinal abnormalities? (DM mother)
-Anenecephaly - facial cleft - Duodenal atresia - Esophageal atresia - Tracheoesophageal fistula - Diaphragmatic hernias
Exstrophy of the bladder is associated with what other congenital anomaly?
Epispadias
After delivery of a cyanotic baby, doctor fails to pass nasogastric tube into stomach.
Clinical test for Tracheo-Esoph fistula
At — midgut herniates through umbilical ring.
6th week
Cyanosis in TEF is 2° — to avoid reflux-related aspiration.
laryngospasm
At — midgut returns to abdominal cavity + rotates around —-.
10th week SMA
Newborn drools or chokes with first feeding. On Xray, you see air in the stomach. Dx?
Trach-esoph fistula
Apple peel bowel on xray due to a disruption of what vessels?
mesenteric vessel disruption –> ischemic necrosis –> jejunal and ileal atresia.
Which Tracheoesophageal anomalies shows gasless abdomen on CXR?
In pure Esoph Atresia
3 Pathologies due to malrotation of midgut,
- intestinal atresia or stenosis, - volvulus
—- abnormally encircles 2nd part of duodenum; Annular pancreas
ventral pancreatic bud
Pancreas divisum—ventral and dorsal parts fail to fuse at—–.
8 weeks
Spleen—arises in mesentery of stomach hence is —- but is supplied by —-.
mesodermal foregut, celiac artery.
what structures contribute to the pancreatic head?
Both the ventral and dorsal buds
Circumferential ectopic pancreatic tissue can cause what?
Stenosis of second part of duodenum
The dorsal pancreatic bud becomes which structures?
body, tail isthmus accessory pancreatic duct
Hepatoduodenal ligament encompasses what structures?
Portal triad: Proper hepatic artery Common bile duct Portal vein
—- ligament separates greater and lesser sacs on the right and — ligament separates greater and lesser sacs on the Left.
Gastrohepatic GastrospLenic
Describe the Pringle maneuver?
Hepatoduodenal ligament compressed between thumb and index finger at the lesser border of omental foramen to control bleeding.
If after doing Pringle maneuver, bleeding continues, what could be the source of the bleed?
inferior vena cava or the hepatic vein
Which ligament may be cut during surgery to access lesser sac?
Gastrohepatic
Layer that contains Meissner nerve plexus and secretes fluid?
Submucosa
layer that contains Auerbach and is for motility?
Muscularis externa (Myenteric nerve plexus)
which GI structure has the fastest frequency of basal electric rhythm?
Duodenum—12 waves/min
T or F? Brunner glands are only found in duodenum.
T (hypertrophy)
which GI structure has the slowest frequency of basal electric rhythm?
Stomach—3 waves/min
Erosions are in which layer/s?
mucosa only
The only 2 digestive organs not containing crypts of Lieberkühn?
stomach and esophagus
Brunner glands location and function?
HCO3 secreting cells of submucosa of duodenum
Which structure has the largest number of goblet cells in the small intestine?
Ileum
T or F? Peyer patches are found in the same structure as where vit B12 is absorbed.
T
which structure has crypts of Lieberkühn but no villi?
Colon
Describe the Superior mesenteric artery syndrome?
occurs when the transverse portion (third part) of the duodenum is entrapped between SMA and aorta, causing intestinal obstruction.
