Secretin normally would decrease gastric acid, high in gastronoma.
Antrum syndrome, hyperstimualtion of gastrin from lack of acid hitting g cells and downregulating them

Q

Truncal vagotomy

A

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

  • 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.

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).

115
Q

What type of volvulus is a gastric volvulus?

A

Organoaxial volvulus

116
Q

Dx/Tx: Mallory Weiss Tear

A

EGD with hemo-clips; tear is usually on the lesser curvature (near GE junction)

117
Q

Where is the Mallory Weiss Tear located?

A

Usually on the lesser curvature (near GE junction)

118
Q

What if you have continued bleeding after EGD with hemo-clips for Mallory Weiss tear?

A

If continued bleeding, may need gastrostomy and oversewing of the vessel.

119
Q

What is the physiologic effect of vagotomy?

A

Both truncal and proximal forms increase liquid emptying -> vaguely mediated receptive relaxation if removed (results in increased gastric pressure that accelerates liquid emptying)

A

Truncal vagotomy
