23
Q

What makes up the hepatic right sagittal fissure?

A

Groove for the gallbladder and IVC

24
Q

Structures delineating the hepatic accessory lobes

A

1) Left, right sagittal fissures

2) Hilum

25
Q

Location of the gallbladder

A

Sits on the anterior visceral surface of liver

26
Q

Three parts of gallbladder

A

Fundus, body, neck

27
Q

Duct linking gallbladder with the common bile duct

A

Cystic duct

28
Q

Quadrant of the pancreas

A

Upper left quadrant

29
Q

Is the pancreas retro- or intraperitoneal?

A

Retroperitoneal

30
Q 
Parts of the pancreas
1)
2)
3)
4)
A

1) Head
2) Neck
3) Body
4) Tail

31
Q

Location of pancreatic head

A

Surrounded by duodenal curve

Attached to descending and transverse duodenum

32
Q

Location of pancreatic tail

A

Closely related to hilum of spleen

Anterior to left kidney

33
Q

Functions of pancreas

A

Endocrine and exocrine

34
Q

Endocrine functions of pancreas

A

Secrete into blood (many small blood vessels in pancreas)

35
Q

Exocrine functions of pancreas

A

Secrete into main pancreatic duct and accessory pancreatic duct into duodenum

Main pancreatic duct+common bile duct –> Major duodenal papilla

Accessory pancreatic duct –> Minor duodenal papilla

36
Q

Quadrant of spleen

A

Left upper quadrant

37
Q

Ribs against which the spleen rests

A

9, 10, 11

38
Q

Danger of breaking ribs 9, 10 or 11

A

Jagged ends can damage splanchnic artery

Heavy bleeding into peritoneal cavity

39
Q

Path of aorta

A

1) Descends through thorax, penetrates diaphragm at T12
2) Splits into common iliac arteries at L4
3) Unpaired branches supply unpaired viscera

40
Q

Aortic branches supplying the gut

A

Celiac trunk (foregut), superior mesenteric artery (midgut), inferior mesenteric artery (hindgut)

41
Q

Structures on anterior aorta

A

Unpaired branches supplying unpaired viscera
- Celiac trunk, superior/inferior mesenteric arteries
Abdominal aorta has paired branches supplying viscera and abdominal walls
- Renal arteries, suprarenal arteries, testicular/ovarian arteries

42
Q

Paired arteries of anterior abdominal aorta

A

Renal arteries, suprarenal arteries, testicular/ovarian arteries

43
Q

Structures on posterior aorta

A

Only paired arteries (parietal arteries)

Phrenic arteries

44
Q

Foregut

A

Begins at abdominal oesophagus

Ends between inferior and superior duodenal papilla

45
Q

Midgut

A

Begins inferior to major duodenal papilla

Ends at distal third of transverse colon

46
Q

Hindgut

A

Begins just before left colic flexure (splenic flexure)

Ends mid anal canal

47
Q

Celiac trunk branches

A

Branches directly to pancreas, duodenum (before major duodenal papilla)

48
Q

Superior/Inferior mesenteric artery

A

Branch directly to the retroperitoneal duodenum, distal third of transverse colon, descending colon, rectum, anal canal

Supplies intraperitoneal jejunum, ileum, sigmoid colon through mesentary

49
Q

Way that paired viscera drain blood to IVC

A

DIrectly

50
Q

Way that unpaired viscera (except liver) drain to IVC

A

Via portal system

51
Q

Venous drainage of peritoneal unpaired viscera

A

Unpaired GIT –> Portal vein –> Hepatic veins –> IVC –> Right atrium

52
Q

Venous drainage of liver

A

Directly to IVC via hepatic veins

53
Q

Veins normally forming portal vein

A

Superior mesenteric vein and splenic vein
