Stomach Flashcards
where are the parietal cells located
Body of the stomach
largest artery to the stomach
left gastric artery
What is the nerve in the posterior fundus that is easily missed during truncal or highly selective vagotomy
criminal nerve of grassi
What nerve innervates gastric contraction
vagus nerve from parasympathetic fibers
Location of gastric ulcers associated with increase gastric acid production
pylorus
type II and III
Most serious complication of EGD
esophageal perforation
Advantage of double contrast upper GI series compared to EGD
- diverticula
- fistula
- tortuosity or stricture location
- size of hiatal hernia
Gold standard for H. pylori diagnostic
Histologic examination of antral biopsy with special stains
Test for eradication of H. pylori
urease breath test
Blood type more common duodenal ulcer
type O
Blood type more common gastric ulcer
Type A
Peptic ulcer formed after severe burn injury
curling ulcer
Peptic ulcer formed after severe brain injury
cushing ulcer
Types of ulcer associated with increased gastric acid secretion
Type II and III
Types of ulcer associated with normal or decreased gastric acid secretion
Type I and IV
Ulcer located in the Angularis Incisura
Type I - most common
Ulcer located in the angularis incisura but with accompanying duodenal ulcer
Type II
Ulcer located in the Prepyloric area
Type III
Ulcer located in the GE junction
Type IV
Ulcer caused by NSAID and can occur anywhere
Type V
Indications of endoscopy in PUD
- patient > 45 y.o
- patient regardless of age with alarm symptoms
a. weight loss
b. dysphagia
c. anemia
d. bleeding
e. recurrent vomiting
Location of High risk ulcer for massive bleeding
- lesser curvature of stomach with erosion to left gastric artery
- posterior duodenal ulcer with erosion to gastroduodenal artery
This surgery is done by severing the proxial 2/3 of vagal supply to the stomach, preserves the antrum and pylorus and remaining abdominal viscera
highly selective vagotomy
parietal cell vagotomy
proximal gastric vagotomy
This is a posterior truncal vagotomy and anterior seromyotomy
