PANCREAS Flashcards
THE EXOCRINE FUNCTION OF THE PANCREAS IS TO SECRETE
LIPASE,TRYPASE, AND AMYLASE
THE ENDOCRINE FUNCTION OF THE PANCREAS IS TO SECRETE ______ VIA THE ISLETS OF LANGERHANS
INSULIN
HEAD OF THE PANCREAS IS _______ TO THE IVC
ANTERIOR
HEAD OF THE PANCREAS IS _______ TO THE DUODENUM
MEDIAL
CBD IS _____/_______ TO THE PANCRETIC HEAD
POSTERIOR LATERAL
GASTRODUODENAL ARTERY IS _______/______ TO THE PANCREATIC HEAD
ANTERIOR LATERAL
THE COMMON HEPATIC ARTERY DIVIDES INTO THE
PHA AND THE GASTRODUODENAL ARTERIES
THE CELIAC AXIS GIVES OFF THE LEFT GASTRIC ARTERY AND THEN DIVDES INTO THE
COMMON HEPATIC ARTERY AND SPLENIC
______ ARTERY COURSES ALONG THE SUPERIOR BORDER OF BODY AND TAIL OF PANCREAS
SPLENIC
SPLENIC V IS LOCATED
POST ASPECT OF PANCREAS
SPLENIC V JOINS THE SMV TO CREATE THE
MPV
CBD AND DUCT OF WIRSUNG (MPD) JOIN TO BECOME THE
HEPATICOPANCREATIC AMPULLA (AMPULLA OF VATER)
IS USUALLY DUE TO STONES WITHIN WIRSUNGS DUCT FROM CHRONIC PANCREATITIS OR A STONE AT THE AMPULLA OF VATER
PANCREATIC DUCT DILATION
THE MOST COMMON CAUSES OF ACUTE PANCREATITIS ARE
GALLSTONES AND ALCOHOL ABUSE
MOST COMMON CAUSE OF CHRONIC PANCREATITIS IS
ALCOHOLIC CHRONIC PANCREATITIS
EXOCRINE GLAND DISORDER RESULTING IN VISCOUS SECRETIONS CAUSING PANCREATIC DYSFUNCTION
CYSTIC FIBROSIS
PSEUDOCYSTS MORE COMMONLY OCCUR AT THE PANCREATIC
TAIL
IN CHILDREN THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR A PANCREATIC PSEUDOCYST IS
ABDOMINAL TRAUMA
THE PANCREAS IS LOCATED WITHIN THE
ANTERIOR PARARENAL SPACE OF THE RETROPERITONEUM
CONGENITAL ANOMALY WHERE THE VENTRAL PANCREAS ENCIRCLES THE SECOND PORTION OF THE DUODENUM; MAY PRESENT AS DOUBLE BUBBLE SIGN
ANNULAR PANCREAS
FAILURE OF THE DORSAL AND VENTRAL PANCREATIC SUCTAL SYSTEMS TO FUSE
PANCREAS DIVISUM
90% OF PATIENTS WITH PANCREATIC CARCINOMA PRESENT WITH______ AND ______ SPREAD OF THE TUMOR
LYMPHATIC AND METASTATIC
PANCREATIC CARCINOMA TYPICALLY ARISES FROM THE
HEAD
PANCREATIC CARCINOMA APPEARS AS A
SOLID HYPOECHOIC MASS
THIS PROCEDURE IS PERFORMED WITH CANCER OF THE HEAD OF THE PANCREAS
WHIPPLE OR PANCREATICODUODENECTOMY
-BENIGN
-ASSOCIATED WITH VON HIPPEL-LINDAU DISEASE
-CLUSTER OF GRAPE LIKE CYSTS
PANCREATIC SEROUS CYSTADENOMA
UNCOMMON NEOPLASM, YET CONSIDERED THE MOST COMMON CYSTIC MASS OF THE PANCREAS
-DIFFICULT TO DISTINGUISH FROM SEROUS CYSTADENOMA
MUCINOUS CYSTIC NEOPLASMS
MOST COMMON ISLET CELL TUMOR
INSULINOMA
SECOND MOST COMMON ISLET CELL TUMOR
GASTRINOMA
ALTHOUGH NOT A CHARACTERISTIC OF INSULINOMAS AND GASTRINOMAS, MANY OF ISLET CEL TUMORS ARE COMMONLY FOUND IN THE
BODY AND TAIL
-AN INHERITED ENDOCRINE DISORDER
-MOST COMMON SITES OF INVOLVEMENT ARE PARATHYROIDS, ADRENAL GLANDS,THYROID, PITUITARY, AND ISLET CELLS
MULTIPLE ENDOCRINE NEOPLASIA (MEN)
