  • original posterior wall grows faster than anterior wall to form the two curvatures
29
Q

What is the space behind the stomach? What is a function of it?

A
  • Omental bursa

- allows room for stomach expansion when it’s filled

30
Q

What is pyloric stenosis? What can cause it? What symptoms will you see?

A
  • extreme narrowing of pyloric lumen because of hypertrophy of circular muscle there
  • erythromycin that’s given when babies are born to prevent blindness
  • severe projectile vomiting especially after feeding, dehydration, always hungry, no urine output
31
Q

Where does the spleen develop from? What ligaments are connected to it?

A
  • From mesoderm within the dorsal embryonic mesentery

Q

When does the liver, gallbladder, and extrahepatic ducts develop?

A

Week 3

33
Q

What is the difference between extrahepatic biliary atresia and intrahepatic biliary atresia?

A
  • extra: correctable, outside liver

- intra: fetal infection cause it and is lethal, inside liver, need a liver transplant

34
Q

What do the two pancreatic buds form?

A
  • ventral: uncinate process, inferior part of head of pancreas

35
Q

How is the pancreas formed? What forms the main pancreatic duct? Where does the accessory pancreatic duct come from?

A
  • duodenum posteriorly rotates ventral bud around and fuse it with dorsal bud at the 2nd PART OF THE DUODENUM
