Q

What medical complications can arise form the peritoneal cavity?

A

It can become an actual space that can contain up to several liters of fluid (ascites)

25
Q

Lateral Umbilical folds

A

Cover the inferior epigastric vessels

26
Q

Peritoneal pouches

A

Potential peritoneal spaces in standing patients
They become actual spaces in recumbent/reclined patients
Pathological fluids can accumulate here

27
Q

Hepatorenal pouch

A

Bound by the liver, right kidney, colon, and duodenum
Lowest part of peritoneal cavity when recumbent
Fluids can move down to retrovesicle/rectouterine pouch when reclining or standing up

28
Q

Rectovesicle Pouch

A

Males only
Another low point of peritoneal cavity when recumbent
Fluids here may travel up to Hepatorenal pouch wheen in Trendelenberg position

29
Q

Rectouterine Pouch

A

Females only
Another low point of peritoneal cavity when recumbent
Fluids here may travel up to Hepatorenal pouch wheen in Trendelenberg position

30
Q

Liver function

A

Detoxifies chemical products and produces bile

31
Q

Liver divisions

A

Visceral liver and Porta Hepatis

Diaphragmatic Liver

32
Q

Porta Hepatis

A

On the visceral liver

Location of the portal triad

33
Q

Portal Triad contents

A

Proper hepatic artery (Superficial medial)
Hepatic portal vein (deep)
Common bile duct (Superficial lateral

34
Q

Visceral liver

A

Posterior portion of liver

35
Q

Diaphragmatic Liver

A

Anterior portion of the liver

36
Q

What are the lobes of the liver

A

Right (anterior)
Left (anteiror)
Caudate (posterior superior)
Quadrate (posterior inferior)

37
Q

Gallbladder

A

Stores bile for emulsification of fats
Attached to the inferior surface of the liver
Receives bile produced by the liver via bile ducts
Has its own arterial supply

38
Q

Pancreas

A

Consists of a head, neck, body, tail, and uncinate process
Retroperitoneal
Transverses across posterior abdominal wall
Surrounded by duodenum on the right, and spleen on the left

39
Q

Spleen

A

Lymphatic organ lateral to the stomach

Shaped like a ball of putty that was smashed

40
Q

Hilium

A

Connective tissue in the middle of the spleen

41
Q

R and L Hepatic duct

A

Receive bile from R and L lobes of the liver respectively.

Drain to the Common Hepatic duct

42
Q

Common Hepatic duct

A

Collect bile from R and L Hepatic ducts

Drain bile to the Common Bile duct

43
Q

Cytic duct

A

Can collect bile from gallbladder or Common Hepatic duct

Drains to either the gallbladder or the Common Bile Duct

44
Q

Common Bile Duct

A

Collects bile from the Common Hepatic duct and Cystic duct

Joins the Main pancreatic duct and drains to the major duodenal papilla

45
Q

Main pancreatic duct

A

Enters the duodenum with bile duct at major duodenal papilla

46
Q

Accessory pancreatic duct

A

May enter the duodenum

If present, it is 2 cm superior to the major papilla

47
Q

Celiac Trunk

A

1st major branch of the abdominal aorta

Supplies the liver, gallbladder, stomach, pancreas, and spleen

48
Q

What are the 3 main branches of the Celiac Trunk?

A

Common Hepatic Artery
Left Gastric Artery
Splenic Artery

49
Q

Common Hepatic Artery

A

Right branch of Celiac Trunk
Runs towards the liver and gallbladder
Splits into the Proper Hepatic Artery and the Gastroduodenal artery

50
Q

Proper Hepatic Artery

A

Superior branch of the Common Hepatic Artery
Runs toward the liver medial to the bile duct
Splits into the R and L Hepatic arteries

51
Q

Gastroduodenal Artery

A

Inferior branch of Common Hepatic Artery
Runs towards the lesser curvature of the stomach
Sends Superior Panctreaticoduodenal arteries and R Gastroepiploic artery

52
Q

Left Gastric Artery

A

Superior branch of Celiac Trunk
Runs toward the lesser curvature of the stomach
Supplies the stomach and esophagus via esophageal branches

53
Q

Superior Pancreaticoduodenal artery

A

Branch of Gastroduodenal artery

Supplies the pancreas and duodenum

54
Q

Right Gastroepiploic artery

A

Branch of Gastroduodenal artery

Supplies the greater curvature of the stomach

55
Q

Splenic Artery

A

Left branch of the celiac trunk
Runs towards the spleen
Sends off Short Gastric artery and L Gastroepiploic artery

56
Q

Short Gastric arteries

A

Branch of Splenic artery

Supplies the greater curvature of the stomach

57
Q

Left Gastroepiplouc arteries

A

Branch of Splenic artery

Supplies the greater curvature of the stomach

58
Q

Cystic artery

A

Arises form R hepatic artery
75% of time, it runs posterior to common hepatic duct
24% of time, it runs anterior to common hepatic duct
1% of time, it splits into to
Supplies the gall bladder and cystic duct

59
Q

Right Gastric Artery

A

Usually arises from proper hepatic artery
However, it can arise from common hepatic or gastroduodenal arteries
Anastamoses with L gastric arteries
Supplies lesser curvature of teh stomach
