Upper GI tract Flashcards
Epithelial lining of GI tract
A. Visceral mesoderm
B. Endoderm
B
Gives rise to parenchyma of hepatocytes and pancreas
A. Visceral mesoderm
B. Endoderm

Forms stroma of the glands in the GI
A. Visceral mesoderm

Late PAC
Peritoneum
Anterior Abdominal Wall
Coelom or Intraembryonic Coelomic Cavities
At what week does the connecting bridge narrow and caudal part of foregut and midgut and major hindgut are suspended from the abd. wall by the dorsal mesentery
5th
Appearance of esophagus at 4 wka old
Respiratory bud/respiratory diverticulum
Appearance of stomach at 4 weeks old
Fusiform dilatation of the foregut
In the ff weeks, the appearance of the stomach and its position changes due to the its rotation
90 degrees clockwise around a longitudinal AP axis
Rotation of the stomach cause Left side to face
Left anterior right posterior
Vagus nerve location
LARP
Reason why there are greater and lesser curvatures
Posterior wall of the stomach grows faster
Both ends of the stomach originally lie in the midline but after rotation…
Caudal/Pylorus is
Cephalic/Caudal is
Right and upward (pYlorus - RU)
Left and backward
Determines the final position of the pancreas —> retroperitoneal
Dorsal mesogastrium
It lengthens —> fuses with post. abd wall —> degenerates
Dorsal mesogastrium
These cells become the spleen
Dorsal mesogastrium cells
Spleen is intraperitoneal. T or F.
T. Suspended by splenicorenal ligament and gastrolienal ligament
Greater omentum is derived from
Dorsal mesentery/mesogastrium
D1 and D2 are formed from the
Terminal foregut
D3 and D4 is formed from
Cephalic midgut
Reason why duodenum takes form of a C-shaped loop and rotates to the right side of abd cavity
Stomach rotates on AP axis
