Gastrointestinal Development Flashcards
Most common congenital GI anomaly
Intestinal obstruction
When does part of inestines herniate out and back in ?
Week 6-10
Foregut
Esophagus Stomach Proximal duodenum Pancreas Liver Biliary system
Midgut
Distal duodenum Most small intestine Cecum Appendix Ascending colon Right 1/2 of tvs colon
Hindgut
Distal 1/2 tvs colon Descending colon Sigmoid colon Rectum Superor part of anal cnaal
Gut tube formed by
Incorporation of dorsal yolk sac into embryo
Gut tube extends from
oropharyngeal to cloacal membrane
Vitelline duct
Connects yolk sac to midgut
Celiac artery supplies
Foregut except pharynx, resp tract, and intra-thoracic esophagus
Mid gut supply
Suprior mesenteric artery
Hindgut supply
Inferior mesenteric
Parasympathetic innervation of gut
Vagus nerve innervates foregut and midgut
Pelvic splanchnis innervates hindgut (S2-S4)
Foregut derivatives
Pharynx and deriv Lower resp Esophagus and stomach Duodenum (superior half) Liver, biliary, and pancreas
Stomach formation
Dorsal stomach wall becomes greater curvature
Ventral stomach wall becomes lesser curvature
From caudal foregut
Stomach rotates how?
Clockwise
Left becomes ventral and right becomes dorsal
Ventral wall/dorsal wall of stomach innervation
Left vagus - ventral
Right vagus - dorsal
How is stomach suspended from dorsal and ventral ab walls
Mesogastrium (dorsal and ventral mesenteries)
Dorsal mesogastrium becomes
Greater omentum
Rotation of dorsal mesogastrium forms
OMental bursa (lesser sac)
Ventral mesogastrium becomes
Lesser omentum
Pyloric stenosis
Thickening of smooth muscle in pyloric region of the stomach
Prevents food from emptying properly into duodenum
Duodenum formed from
Caudal foregut and cranial midgut
Where does common bile duct attach?
Junction of foregut and midgut
Rotation of stomach rotates duodenal loop
To the right and pushes pancreas and udodenum into retroperitoneal postion
Duodenal stenosis
When lumen narrowed as a result of failed recanalization
Vomiting
Duodenal atresia
When lumen is occuded
Associated with other severe conditions
Double bubble
