GI Flashcards
gastroschisis
extrusion of abdominal contents through abdominal folds; no covering
failure of the fusion of lateral folds during transverse folding
right of the umbilical cord
gastRoschsis–Right
prematurity and vasoconstritive agents (cocaine)
exstrophy of bladder
caudal fold closure, anterior abdominal wall.
midgut development
6th week–herniation through umbilical ring
10th week-return to cavity, rotation around SMA
270 degrees.
midgut volvulus/malrotation
green puke, failure of midgut to complete 270 degrees into peritoneal cavity
C loop must be on right side (small intestine, cranial limb) and the caudal limb (large intestine to the left).
caudal limb rotates addition 180 degrees inside, cecum returning last
formation of Ladd bands–malrotation
duodenal atresia
double bubble sign polyhydroaminos low intestinal reabsorption of amniotic fluid . failed recanalization of duodenal lumen annular pancreas (Ladd bands) trisomy 21. bilious vomiting.
H type fistula
still some connection, not as severe. gasless abdomen
EA with distal TEF
most common. blind end esophagus (esophageal atresia). drooling, choking, and vomiting with first feeding. air enters the stomach. cyanosis
failure to pass NG tube into stomach
Pyloric stenosis
marked hypertrophy and hyperplasia of 2 muscular layers of pylorus
palpable “olive” mass in epigastric region
nonbilious projectile vomiting.
hypokalemic hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis.
male first born
correct dehydration first
pyloromyotomy
hungry vomiter
Annular pancreas
ventral pancreatic bud abnormally encircles 2nd part of duodenum
may cause duodenal narrowing
Hirschprung’s disease
absence of ganglion cells in the distal bowel.
failure of differentiation and migration of neural crest cells
neurocristopathy
functional bowel obstruction with dilation of proximal bowel.
failure to pass meconium, constipation, abdominal distension
RET gene
increase risk with down syndrome
Hirschsprung is a giant spring that has SPRUNG in the colon.
imperforate anus
urorectal septum fails to completely separate hindgut
VACTRAL
(tet, ASD, VSD)
(esophageal atresia, duodenal atresia, Hirschprung)
(VCUR, Renal Agenesis)
Vertebral
Falciform ligament
liver to anterior abdominal wall
fetal umbilical vein–ligament teres hepatis
ventral mesentary
hepatoduodenal ligament
liver to duodenum borders the omental foramen, which connectrs greater and lesser sacs portal triad: proper hepatic artery portal vein common bile duct
gastrohepatic ligament
liver to lesser curvature of stomach
gastric arteries
separates greater and lesser sacs on the right. cut to access lesser sac
gastrocolic ligament
greater curvature to transverse colon gastroepiploci arteries part of greater omentum loose connective tissue free fold of visceral peritoneum clinically important in that it adheres to sites of inflammation limiting damage to abdominal cavity.
gastrosplenic ligament
greater curvature and spleen
short gastrics, left gastroepiploic vessels
seperates greater and lesser sacs on the left
