Q

What can happen to a patient with Portal hypertension?

A

The blood can’t be drained into the IVC. The tributers dilate due to excessive blood then with pressure on the tributers it will eventually rupture, causing blood to go-to the esophagus making the patient vomit blood. (hematemesis).

Q

What is the disadvantage of the Cardiac orifice to only have an physiological sphincter?

A

Due to cardiac sphincher not being an anatomical sphicher, HCl can go through the opening causing a heartburn.

Q

Whar is the venous drainage of the stomach? and where do they drain into?

A

The veins drain into the portal circulation. 1. The left and right gastric veins. 2. The short gastric veins and the left gastroepiploic veins 3. The right gastroepiploic vein.

Q

What is the lymphatic drainage of the stomach?

A

The lymph vessels follow the arteries to end into the celiac nodes located around the root of the celiac artery on the posterior abdominal wall.

21
Q

What is the nerve supply of the stomach?

A

Sympathetic fibers (celiac plexus) and parasympathetic fibers (right and left vagus nerves)

22
Q

What does the endoderm forms in the intraembryonic life regarding the GIT?

A

The epithelial lining: mucosa Submucosa Muscularis Serosa

23
Q

What does the mesenchyme (Mesoderm) forms in rhe intraembryonic life regarding the GIT?

A

Forms the surrounding muscles and serous coat.

24
Q

At what part of yolk sac does the esophagus develops from? and from where does it extend?

A
  • foregut - laryngeotracheal groove
25
Q

What does this image represent?

A

Atresia with distal fistula.

26
Q

What are the stages of Stomach development?

A
  1. It starts as a tube just like the esophagus. (midline) 2. Dilates and becomes a fusiform shape. 3. The dorsal border dilates more. (J shape) 4. Rotates 90 to the RIGHT. 5. The surfaces of the stomach was Rt and Lf and after the Ventral mesentery rotates left and becomes lesser momentum and the dorsal mesentery becomes greater momentum the surfaces becomes Ant and Post.
27
Q

what is the clinical disease in this image?

A

Congenital hypertophic pyloric stenosis.

The pyloric sphincter muscles are thicker than normal that it completely closes the sphincher!

The baby will drink milk and due to the closure, it’ll fills the stomach till he vomits it all in around 24hrs. Surgical: open the stenosis.

28
Q

What is the length of the duodenum?

A

25cm/10in.

29
Q

What is the junction that lies between the caudal portion of the foregut and the proximal part of midgut?

A

Major duodenal papilla

30
Q

To what degree does the duodenum rotates? and to what direction?

A

The C- shaped loop (duodenum) rotates 90 to the right (with stomach).

31
Q

What are the stages of the duodenum development?

A
  1. Rotates 90 RIGHT. 2. The ventral mesentery that held the duodenum degenerates. (Duodenum doesn’t have a peritoneum from behind! only from the front=retroperitoneal). 3. The RIGHT layer of the dorsal mesentery degenerates.
32
Q

What are the stages of the liver development?

A
  1. An entodermal hepatic diverticulum develops from the ventral wall of the duodenal loop. 2. The hepatic diverticulum grows ventral and cranial to enter the ventral mesentry. 3. It divides into 2 parts: pars hepatica and pars cystica. 4. Pars hepatica form common hepatic duct. It divides into right and left hepatic duct. The cranial end of hepatic ducts divides to form liver cells. The stroma is derived from the ventral mesentry.
33
Q

What are the stages of the pancreas development?

A
  1. It develops from 2 buds: - Dorsal pancreatic bud: from dorsal wall of the duodenum - Ventral pancreatic bud: from proximal end of hepatic diverticulum 2. The 2 buds come close together in the concavity of duodenum 3. The dorsal bud elongates faster head (upper part) ,neck, body, and tail. (NBT). 4. Ventral bud grow slower and makes the head (lower part) and uncinate process.
34
Q

What does this image represent?

A

Annular pancreas

35
Q

What are the stages of pancreas development? and explain each?

A
  1. 2 pancreatic buds (dorsal bud from dorsal wall of the duodenum and ventral bud from the proximal end of hepatic diverticulum).
  2. With the rotation of the duodenum and the ventral mesentery, the ventral pancreatic bud becomes under the dorsal pancreatic bud. (2 buds come close together in the concavity of duodenum)
  3. The dorsal pancreatic bud. (becomes way bigger than the one that came from the ventral).
36
Q

What are the stages of the rectum and anal canal development?

A
  1. The cloaca is the dilated caudal part of the hindgut. 2. The cloaca is divided by the urorectal septum (mesoderm) into: - Ventral part called primitive urogenital sinus. - Dorsal part called anorectal canal. - The anorectal canal gives rise to the mucosa of rectum and upper 1⁄2 of anal canal - The lower 1⁄2 of anal canal develops from ectodermal depression called proctodeum.
