Q

The duct of the dorsal pancreas fuses with the…

A

duct of the ventral pancreas

51
Q

What becomes the definitive pancreatic duct?

A

Duct of the ventral pancreas (dorsal degenerates)

52
Q

A

budding of cells from the ducts

54
Q

You see a pt with pancreatic tissue in the wall of the stomach, duodneum and ileal diverticulum. What causes this?

A

Accessory pancreatic tissue occurs b/c the pancreatic tissue develops from ENDODERMAL EPITHELIUM of the developing GI tract

55
Q

What is attached at the apex of the midgut loop, bewteen the cephalic and caudal limbs of the loop?

A

omphaloenteric duct (yolk stalk)

56
Q

What happens to the omphaloenteric duct in an adult?

A

if present, it’s located 2 ft cranial to the ileocecal jxn and may form an ileal diverticulum

57
Q

When does herniation of the developing intestine into the umbilical stalk occur?

A

6th or 7th week b/c of rapid intestinal growth and limited space in the abdominal cavity d/t large size of the liver and kidneys

58
Q

When does the intestine return to the abdominal cavity?

A

10-11 weeks

Cephalic limb of midgut loop grows rapidly and forms the small intestine, while caudal limb undergoes little change. Rotation of the midgut loop with the small intestine returning first forces the distal colon to the left.

59
Q

What supplies the midgut and serves as a pivot point for a counter clockwise rotation (270 degrees) of the caudal midgut limb around the cephalic midgut limb to bring the colon across the small intestine?

A

superior mesenteric artery

60
Q

What happens to the cecum when the colon return to the abdominal cavity?

A

it goes to the lower right quadrant

61
Q

When does heterotopic gastric mucosa and pancreatic tissue occur?

A

when cells lining the stomach or pancreatic tissue develop at sites OTHER than the stomach

62
Q

What is an ileal diverticulum? Greater prevalence in M or F?

A

present in 2 to 4 per cent of people and is 3 to 5 times more common in MALES than females.

A Meckel diverticulum is a persistence of the proximal part of the YOLK STALK (duct) (omphaloenteric duct). The diverticulum can become inflamed.

May end as a blind pouch, be attached to the umbilicus by a fibrous cord or a fistula (omphaloenteric fistula), or result in a condition known as volvulus (twist around) that can lead to ischemia or strangulation of the bowel.

May be sight for ectopic stomach tissue and pancreatic tissue

63
Q

What causes a congenital omphalocele?

A

failure of the intestinal loops to return from the umbilical cord to the abdominal cavity during the 10th week and the ventral abdominal wall to close.

Herniated loop covered by amnion (epithelium of the umbilical cord).

64
Q

What causes a congenital umbilical hernia?

A

the ventral abdominal musculature fails to close the umbilical ring.

Protruding mass is covered by subcutaneous tissue and skin

65
Q

What causes gastroschisis?

A

a defect near the median plane of the right ventral abdominal wall. The cause of gastroschisis is uncertain, but may be due to ischemic injury to the anterior abdominal wall

66
Q

What causes non-rotation of the midgut?

A

the caudal limb returns to the abdomen first, and the small intestine lies on the right side of the abdomen and the large intestine on the left.

67
Q

What forms the mesentery and attaches all of the intestine to the posterior abdominal wall?

A

dorsal mesentery

68
Q

The greater omentum, transverse mesocolon and sigmoid mesocolon are all derivatives of..

A

dorsal mesentery

69
Q

What causes the duodenum and ascending/descending colons to be retroperitoneal?

A

perineal body

75
Q

A

upper 2/3- anal canal

lower 1/2- proctodeum

76
Q

What is the site of the ANAL MEMBRANE and is where the endoderm of the hindgut becomes continuous w/ the ectoderm of hte proctodeum?

A

pectinate or anorectal line

77
Q

How do the arterial/venous systems differ for the hindgut and proctodeum?

A

hindgut- inferior mesenteric

proctodeum- inferior rectal branch of the internal pudendal

78
Q

lymphatics from the hindgut drain to…

A

inferior mesenteric nodes

79
Q

lymphacts from the proctodum drain to…

A

superficial inguinal nodes

80
Q

What is an anocutaneous line?

A

where the anal epithelium changes from simple columnar to stratified squamous

81
Q

What is a congenital megacolon (hirschsprung’s disease)?

A

absence of parasympathetic ganglia in the wall of the colon d/t failure of NCC to migrate into the splanchnic mesoderm

82
Q

What causes an imperforate anus?

A

persistence of the cloacal (anal) membrane to atresia (anal atresia) of the anal canal/rectum.

83
Q

What are hindgut fistulas?

A

Connect the hindgut with the vagina (rectovaginal fistula), urethra (rectourethral fistula), or the bladder (rectovesical fistula).

84
Q

What causes a hindgut fistula?

A

Occur because of incomplete division of the cloaca by the urorectal septum into the rectum/anal canal and urogenital sinus.
