Q

Caput medusae are caused by what portion of the postocaval anastomotic system?

Q

What are the differences between jejunum and ileum?

A

Jejunum - simple archades, long vasa recta, dense plicae circularis, and responsible for most of the absorption in the GI tract

Ileum: compound vasculature arcade, short vasa recta, fewer plicae circularis

Q

How can you tell the large and small colon apart?

A

Large - taenia coli (thick packing tape around colon), epiploic appendices (fat tags), semilunar folds inside, housetrays, and pockets

Small - smooth

16
Q

How many lobes does the liver have, and what are their names?

A

Four lobes

Right, left, quadrate (more square than codate), and codate

17
Q

What are the round, falciform, and coronary ligaments? Where are they found, and what are they the embryologic remnants of? What is the last hepatic ligament not mentioned, and where is it located?

A

Round - aka. ligamentum teres hepatis. Thickening at the bottom of faciform. Remnant of the umbilical vein, continuous with ligamentum venosum (remnant of ductus venosus)
Falciform - at hilum of liver, connects liver to anterior wall. Remnant of umbilical vein.
Coronary - peritoneal reflections that hold the liver to the inferior surface of the diaphragm. Dorsal to falciform ligament.

Triangular ligament - on either side of coronary ligament.

18
Q

What is the flow of bile through the bile duct system?

A

Stored in liver –> right and left hepatic ducts for secretion —> common hepatic duct –> cystic duct –> common bile duct –> duodenum

19
Q

What are the contents of the foregut?

A

Stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and first 1/2 of duodenum

20
Q

What are the contents of the midgut?

A

Second 1/2 of duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum,ascending colon, and 2/3 of transverse colon

21
Q

What are the contents of the hindgut?

A

Left 1/2 of transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum

22
Q

What are the parts of the duodenum, and what are the unique features of each?

A

Superior - where hepatoduodnal ligament (contains portal triad) attaches to lesser omentum
Descending - where bile and pancreatic ducts empty
Inferior - crosses inferior vena cava and aorta, is crossed anteriorly by mesenteric vessels
Ascending - portion tethered by suspensory ligament at duodenojejunal flexure

23
Q

What are the mesenteries of large intestine components?

A 
Ascending - retroperitoneal
Transverse colon - transverse mesocolon 
Descending colon - retroperitoneal 
Sigmoid colon - sigmoid mesocolon 
Rectum - retroperitoneal
24
Q

What are the primary differences between the internal and external anal sphincters?

A

Internal -involuntary, smooth muscle, parasympathetic innervation
External- voluntary, skeletal muscle, somatic innervation

25
Q

How do you differentiate the lobes of the liver?

A

1) Right lobe - largest lobe
2) Quadrate lobe - between gallbladder and round ligament of liver
3) Caudate lobe - between the IVC, ligamentum venosum, and porta hepatis
4) Left lobe

26
Q

What is the bare area of the liver?

A

Area pressed against diaphragm that lacks visceral peritoneum

27
Q

What is the porta hepatis?

A

Site at which vessels, ducts, lymphatics, and nerves enter and leave the liver

28
Q

Journey of bile after secretion by hepatocytes?

A

Passes into canaliculus (capillary) –> intralobar ductules –> bile ducts –> collects in right and left hepatic ducts –> common hepatic duct –> cystic duct where it is stores and concentrated in the gall bladder –> vagal efferent stimulation by CCK moves bile out of gallbladder –> inferiorly down common bile duct –> hepatopancreatic ampulla –> empties into second part of duodenum
