stomach final absite Flashcards
Inferiorly, the stomach is attached to ___ via___
Transverse colon via gastrocolic omentum
The lesser curvature is thethered to the liver by
Hepatogastric ligament (lesser omentum)
What’s posterior to the stomach
Lesser omental bursa and pancreas
Right gastroepiploic artery rises from
Gastroduodenal artery (GDA) behind the first portion of the duodenum
Left gastroepiploic artery arises from
Splenic artery, meets the right one on the greater curvature
The right gastric artery arises from
The hepatic artery (proper hepatic) near the pylorus and hepatoduodenal ligament
The right and left gastric veins drain into
Portal vein
Right gastroepiploic vein drains into
SMV near the inferior border of pancreatic neck
Components of the celiac trunk
Left gastricCommon hepatic arterySplenic artery
Branches of the splenic artery that supply the stomach
Left gastroepiploic and short gastric
Blood supply to the greater curvature
Right and left gastroepiploics, short gastrics
What is the right gastroepiploic a branch of?
Gastroduodenal artery
Blood supply of lesser curvature
Right and left gastrics
What is the right gastric a branch off?
The common hepatic artery
Blood supply of the pylorus
Gastroduodenal artery
Left gastroepiploic vein drains into the
Splenic vein
What supplies the gastric remnant following a radical subtotal gastrectomy
Short gastric as long as spelling artery is ok
Common hepatic branches into
Proper hepatic and GDA
Type of cells making up the stomach
Simple columnar cells, and mucus secreting cells mostly in cardiac
Fundus and body cells and stimulation
Parietal cells (release acid and intrinsic factor), chief cells secrete pepsinogen (chief role so chief cells).
Stimulation of parietal cells
Stimulated by Vagus via Ach, gastrin from g cell, and histamine
Stomach antrum secretes
G cells and D cells (somatostatin)
Produces pepsinogen (1st enzyme in proteolysis)
Chief cells
Release hydrogen and intrinsic factor
Parietal cells
If retained antrum syndrome, basal stomach acid, gastrin level in response to secretin
Basal high bc still masking gastrin, gastrin high, gastric acid secretion in response to secretion stimulations test would drop in comparison to gastronoma.
Secretin normally would decrease gastric acid, high in gastronoma.
Antrum syndrome, hyperstimualtion of gastrin from lack of acid hitting g cells and downregulating them
Role of somatostatin
Inhibits secretin of gastric acid, pepsinogen , pancreatic secretions, decreased GB contraction, decreased insulin and glucagon release
organioaxial vulvus - stomach
Triggered by reduceding volvues, need Nissan. GE junction to pylorus.
Forceful vomiting and hematemesis following
Mallory weiss tear, mucosal tear, EGD and clip along lesser curve MC
Truncal vagotomy
Go 5 cm up one esphagus and get left and right, trying to get criminal nerve of grassi, increase emptying of liquid. Lose innervation fo pylorus so solids also affected. Unless you perform a pyloroplasty. Decrease gastric acid production by 90%, increase gastrin overall from gastrin cell hyperplasia, decrease exocrine pancreatic function, decrease bile flow, increase GB volume, decreased in vagaly mediated hormones
Selected vagotomy
Trying to Maintain vagus innervation below the liver, so below hepatic branches to get stomach fibers. Normal solid emptying
Hepatic branches
LARP- left become anterior continues over to the liver, posterior becomes the celiac
Emptying of stomach following vagotomy
Increased because lose the receptor reflex, increased emptying liquid of stomach.
What are patients complain off after a vagotomy, treatment?
Diarrhea, give cholestyramine for treatment
What causes bile secretion?
Cholinergic stimulationcausescontraction of the gallbladder and relaxation of the sphincter of Oddi, which means thatbileissecretedinto the intestine.

Low along body lesser curve, 50-60%
Poor mucosa protection
Gastric ulcers - type IV?
high lesser curve < 10%, poor mucosa protection
Type 2 gastric ulcer
2 ulcers (lesser curve and duodenal); similar to duodenal ulcer with high acid secretion
Type 3 gastric ulcer
pre-pyloric ulcer; similar to duodenal ulcer with high acid secretion
Types related to high acid secretion?
Type II, lesser curve and duodenum from high acid
Type III, prepylorus also high acid
Which gastric ulcer is secondary to meds?
Type 5, 5% NSAID use
Main-stem treatment?
Trugnal vagotomy, antrectomy, consider separate ulcer excision and exclude cancer
Antrectomy, reconstructions
Vagotomy first
- Bilroth I - hooking stomach directly to duodenum, complications
- Bilroth II - hooking stomach into jejunum, symptoms of dumping and alkaline, common complications: afferent loop obstruction
- RNY - preferred in younger patients.
Anatomy of modern Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Modern gastric bypass consists of a divided pouch gastroplasty with Rouxen-Y jejunojejunal reconstruction. The Roux limb is most commonly placed in the antecolic position. Intestinal limbs are termed with either standard Roux (Roux, afferent, efferent) or bariatric (alimentary, biliopancreatic, common channel) nomenclature as shown.
Afferent loop syndrome, tx?
Overgrowth of bacteria can present with megaloblastic anemia, b12 deficiency, bile reflux gastritis (tx to convert to RNY, need at least 6 cm from pancreatic/biliary limb to avoid this)
Conversion of Billroth II gastrojejunostomy to Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy. The afferent limb is divided (A) and intestinal continuity is reestablished by anastomosis 50 to 60 cm downstream from the original gastrojejunostomy (B).
Most common benign gastric neoplasm, although can be malignant
Symptoms: usually asymptomatic, but obstruction and bleeding can occur
GIST
What will be positive in biopsy of GIST?
C-KIT
GIST receptor
Receptor CK
What are poor options for surgical repair of gastric ulcers?
Omental patch and ligation of bleeding vessels are poor options for gastric ulcers due to high recurrence of symptoms and risk of gastric CA in the ulcer.
What’s CK
Tyrosine kinase receptor
Dx and tx of GIST
Dx: biopsy - are C-KIT positiveTx: resection with 1 cm margins; Chemotherapy with imatinib (Gleevac, tyrosine kinase inhibitor) if malignant
When are GIST considered malignant?
> 5 cm or > 5 mitoses / 50 HPF (high-powered field)
TK inhibitor that can be treatment for malignant GIST?
Imatinib (Gleevax; tyrosine kinase inhibitor)look at pathology report and seize, if > 5 cm: tx with adjuvantGleevax, look at mitosis per hpf, If >5, use this.
Resection margins for GIST
1 cm margins
How do GISTs look on ultrasound?
Hypoechoic on ultrasound; smooth edges
Macroscopic margins
Don’t need macroscopic margins

Hiatal hernia treatments
2,3,4 all need surgical intervention - 2,3 risk stratified if too frail may need to avoid surgery
Ultimately: nissen fundoplication
Bouchards triad
Chest pain retching without vomiting and inability to pass NGT
Tenets to nissen
Reduce hernia and sac, excise sac out of chest, mediastinal mobilization of esophagus (2-3 cm intraadbominally) reaproxiamte crura, perform wrap over a large 50-54 French bougie to recreate natural valve to prevent reflux
Complication after Nissen
MC: dysphagia, some is expected so put them on CLD, if worried barium swallow. Ar they tolerating their own secretions? If not, then OR too tight wrap and swelling.
What if you cant get esophagus down the stomach?
Coulis gastroplasty - elongate esophagus by coming down to tubliainzg stomach in greater curve
What stimulates parietal cells?
Acetylcholine (vagus nerve), gastrin (from G cells in antrum), and histamine (from mast cells) cause H+ release
What is the pathway of acetylcholine (vagus nerve) and gastrin?
Activates phospholipase (PIP -> DAG + IP3 + Increase Ca); Ca-calmodulin activates phosphorylase kinase -> H+ release
What is the pathway of histamine?
Activates adenylate cyclase -> cAMP -> activates protein kinase A -> increased H+ release
How do phosphorylase and protein kinase A work?
Phosphorylate H+/K+ ATPase to increase H+ secretion and K+ absorption
Blocks H+/K+ ATPase in parietal cell membrane (final pathway for H+ release)
Omeprazole
Inhibitors of parietal cells
Somatostatin, prostaglandins (PGE1), secretin, CCK
Binds B12 and the complex is reabsorbed in the terminal ileum
Intrinsic factor
