Sauderland Posterior wall Flashcards
The YOLK STALK (vitelline duct) connects the small bowel to the yolk sac. Usually, the duct fully obliterates around the 9th week of gestational age. If it does not fully obliterate (in 2% of cases) . . . then what?
You get meckel’s diverticulum
What can result with fecal matter entering umbilicus?
meckel’s diverticulum
What can result in a fibrous cord connecting small intestine with umbilius and result in strangulation of small bowel?
meckel’s diverticulum
What is the rule of 2 that meckel’s diverticulum follow?
The Rule of 2: 2 inches (5 cm) long 2 feet proximal from ileocecal valve 2% of population 2% symptomatic 2 types of ectopic tissue: gastric & pancreatic
What is the most prevalent congenital abnormality of the GI tract?
Meckel’s diverticulum
Meckel’s diverticulum with heterotopic gastric mucosa can develop into a (blank)
peptic ulcer
Meckels divericulum can create inflammation, adhesion and gangrene and peritonitis which can result in (Blank)
appendicitus
(blank) has alkaline secretions which can also cause ulcerations.
Ectopic pancreatic tissue
(blank) is An acquired condition which results from herniation of the mucosa through defects in the muscle coats where blood vessels pierce the wall; at the mesenteric side of the two lateral taeniae coli; often at the base of the appendices epiploicae.
diverticulosis
(blank) do not occur in the rectum
Diverticula
(blank) is an Inflammation in and around diverticula
occurs in only a small percentage
of patients with diverticulosis.
diverticulitis
Acute inflammation of diverticulum can lead to general (blank) or (blank)
peritonitis
abscesses
(blank) can erode tissue or form fistulas
abscesses
(blank) are commonly found in the colon and sigmoid colon and may undergo malignant transformation
polyps
Hereditary polyposis manifests itself in the (blanK) decade of life.
2nd
(blank) is an Endoscopic examination of colon and distal end of small bowel with a fiberoptic camera. Length: 4-5 feet (120-150 cm).
colonoscopy
(blank) is an Endoscopic examination of sigmoid colon (120-150 cm).
sigmoidoscopy
(blank) uses 2D and 3D imagery reconstructed from CT scan and MR (not good to find small legions, can remove polyps or tumors)
virtual colonoscopy
(blank) is a twisting of the intestine
causing bowel obstruction
If left untreated, it may result in
vascular compromise of the
involved intestine
volvulus
(blank) volvulus refers to twisting
of the entire midgut around the
superior mesenteric artery (SMA
midgut
What is this:
The enfolding of one segment
of the intestine within another
A part of the intestine has invaginated
into another section of intestine
A serious disorder in which part of the intestine
slides into an adjacent part of intestine
intussusception
What is this:
the distal portion of the ileum together with the ileocecal valve passes into the ascending colon
ileocolic intussusception
What is this:
the distal portion of the ileum passes through the ileocecal valve into the cecum
ileocecal intussusception
What is this:
one portion of the ileum is ensheathed in another portion
ileoileal intussuception
