Q

Function of the pylorus and its different parts?

A

It controls the outflow of chime

It has a pyloric antrum (chamber) and a pyloric canal (outflow region)

17
Q

What are the gastric rugae?

A

Longitudinal folds of mucosa inside the stomach. They increase the surface area of teh stomach and can be either temporary (diminish as stomach distends) or permanant (form the gastric canal).

18
Q

What is the gastric canal?

A

It is the groove that is along the lesser curvature (in the stomach), it can be seen in medical imaging.

19
Q

What is the pyloric sphincter?

A

It is a circular band of smooth muscle and is a junction between the stomach and the small intestine.

20
Q

What is the arterial supply to the lesser curvature?

A
  1. ) Left gastric artery that is a direct branch of the celiac trunk
  2. ) Right gastric artery that comes from the proper hepatic artery
21
Q

What is the arterial supply to the greater curvature?

A
  1. ) Left gastro omental artery that comes from the splenic artery
  2. ) Right gastro omental artery that comes from the gastroduodenal artery
22
Q

What is the arterial supply to the fundus?

A

Short gastric arteries that are branches of the splenic artery

23
Q

What is the venous drainage of the stomach?

A
  1. ) Right gastric veins that drain into the hepatic portal vein
  2. ) Left gastric veins that drain directly into the hepatic portal vein
  3. ) Right gastro omental veins that drain into the superior mesenteric vein
  4. ) Left gastro omental veiins that drain into the splenic vein
  5. ) Short gastric veins that drain into the splenic vein
  6. ) Prepyloric vein that drains into the right gastric vein
24
Q

Parts of the small intestine?

A
  1. ) duodenum
  2. ) jejunum
  3. ) Ileum
25
Q

Parts of the colon?

A
  1. ) ascending colon
  2. ) transverse colon
  3. ) descending colon
  4. ) sigmoid colon
26
Q

What connect the small intestine to the colon and what does it have?

A

Cecum which has the appendix

27
Q

Parts of the duodenum?

A
  1. ) Superior part
  2. ) Descending part
  3. ) Transverse Part
  4. ) Ascending part
28
Q

What is in the superior part of the duodenum and everything else about it?

A
  1. ) It is intraperitoneal (mobile)
  2. ) Duodenal cap or ampulla is continuos with the pylorus of the stomach
  3. ) At the level of L1
  4. ) Superiorly attached by the hepatoduodenal ligament
  5. ) Inferiorly attached by the greater omentum
  6. ) Supplied by the celiac trunk
29
Q

What is in the descending part of the duodenum and everything else about it?

A
  1. ) It is secondarily retroperitoneal (immobile and covered by transverse mesocolon)
  2. ) It lies at the midline and is anterior to the hilium of the right kidney.
  3. ) At the level L2
  4. ) Supplied by the celiac trunk and the superior mesenteric artery
  5. ) Has the major and minor papilla
30
Q

What is the major papilla?

A

It is in the descending part of the duodenum and is an opening for the common bile duct and the main pancreatic duct. It releases pancreatic juice and bile and is larger because of the hepatopancreatic ampulla and sphincter internally.

31
Q

What is the minor papilla?

A

It is in the descending part of the duodenum and is an opening for the acessory pancreatic duct. Releases pancreatic juices only and is about 2 cm superior to the major papilla.

32
Q

What is in the transverse part of the duodenum?

A
  1. ) It is secondarily retroperitoneal
  2. ) Crosses posteriorly under the sueprior mesenteric artery and anteriorly it is over the IVC
  3. ) It is at teh level of L3
  4. ) Longest section of the duodenum
  5. ) It is supplied by the superior mesenteric artery
33
Q

What is in the ascending part of the duodenum?

A
  1. ) It is mostly retroperitoneal
  2. ) It terminates at the duodenojejunal flexure
  3. ) At the level of L2
  4. ) Supplied by the superior mesenteric artery
  5. ) Supported by the suspensory ligament
34
Q

What is the suspensory ligament and why is it clincally significant?

A

It conencts the duodenum to the diaphragm and the posterior abdominal wall.. It also facilitates movement of the intestinal content and marks the point of the duodenojejunal flexure. It divides the GI tract into upper and lower. If upper GI tract bleeding then it is proximal and blood would appear in vomit and stool would be dark. If in lower than it is distal and red blood appear in stool.

35
Q

Specifically what is the arterial supply of the duodenum? (the specific branches from the main arteries)

A
  1. ) Celiac trunk - Anterior and posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal arteries
  2. ) Gastroduodenal artery - supraduodenal artery
  3. ) Superior mesenteric artery - Anterior and posterior inferior pancreatico duodenal arteries
