GI embryology Flashcards
foregut, midgut and hindgut divisions
foregut - pharynx to duodenum
midgut - duodenum to proximal 2/3 colon
hindgut - distal 1/3 colon to anal canal
foregut rotation
90 degrees clockwise
failure of lateral fold closure causes
gastroschisis or amphalocele
duodenal atresia due to…
failure to recanalize (trisomy 21)
jejunal, ileal, or colon atresia due to
vascular accident
midgut development
6th week it herniates through the umbilical ring
10th week returns to abd cavity and rotates around the SMA
=270 degree couterclockwise turn (view from below)
90 during herniation and 180 as it goes back
gastroschisis
extrusion of abd contents through abd folds NOT covered by peritoneum
omphalocele
persistence of herniation into umbilical cord; IS sealed by peritoneum (not incontact with amniotic fluid)
EA with distal TEF
drooling, choking and vomiting with first feeding
TEF allows air to enter stomach visible on CXR
cannot pass a nasogastric tube into stomach!
presents with polyhydramnios
isolated EA CXR
CXR shows gassless abdomen
congential pyloric stenosis
hypertrophy of pylorus causes obstruction
palpable olive mass in epigastric region and nonbilious projectile vomiting at 2-6 weeks old
achalasia
failure of LES to relax
oligohydramnios vs poly hydramnios
oligo - too little amniotic fluid, decreased volume
poly - too much; fetus isnt swallowing
in pharyngeal gut, lining is derived from?
cartilage, muscles, and nerves from?
endoderm
pharyngeal arches
in for, mid, and hind guts,
epithelial lining is from?
muscles and CT from?
enteric nervous system from?
endoderm
splanchic mesoderm
neural crest
gut tube is suspended by
dorsal mesentery
midgut is temporarily connected to yolk sac by____
vitelline duct
