W5. Esophagus, stomach duodenum Flashcards
atresia
orifice/passage in body is closed of absent
stenosis
abnormal narrowing of tube or orifice
esophageal webs
anywhere
-dysphagia
plummer-vinson(paterson kelly syndrome
-cervical esicphageal we
-mucosal lesion in mouth and parync
iron deficiney anemia
schatzki ring
-lower esophgaheal narrowing in GE junction
-asymp
true diverticiulm
outpouchin containng all layer
false diverticul
no muscular layer like senker and epiphrenic
senker diverticul: where and typical symtpom
-false
-men over 60
-high in esopaheu-cricoparhyngeal mucle
-regurgation
midesopahgeual /traction diverticul
-middle of eso
-motor funciton disorder or adhesions
- aymptomatic
epiphreni diverticuls
-false
-distal eso
-mototr dysfunctions
motor fisorder of eso
1.systemic diseas of SM: myasthenia grvais,amyloidosus, hypothyroidism, myxedema
2. neurological disease affecting nerves to skeletal or smooth muscle
3. peripheral neuropathy associated with diabetes of alcholsims
achalasia/cardiospasm
A disorder of the lower esophageal sphincter, which is not able to relax during swallowing (Due to decreased number of Nitric oxide secreting neurons)
result: esophagus hypertorophy and dilates
hiatal hernia
protrusion of stomach into chest through enlarged diaphragamtic opening
types
1. sliding(axial): move upward above diaphragm
-asymp, GE refluc
- ## paraesopahgeal (non axial): thorgh eso hiatus
refluc esophagitis
cause and develop bc
-due to refluc of gastric or duodenal content into lower eso
-reflux develop as incompentetn lower esopagheal sphincter
refluc esophagitid risk factors andn long term consequences
risk:
-smoker, tobaco, obestiy, pregnancy, CNS depressent, hiatal hernia
long term:
- bleeding
-stricture
-baretts esop
baretts eso
eso squamos epi–>columnar (intestinal) epi as result of chronic GERD
major risk factor for ESO ADENOCARCINOMA
eosinopilic esophagitis
allergird ot ingested food aro inhaled allergens
children
infective esopahtitis
-associated with immunosuppresion
-most common: CANDIDA ESOPHAGITIS (MYCOTIC ESO)-fungus
-herpetic, CMV
esopagel varices
dileted vein prone to rupture and hemorrhage
-LOWER third of eso
-associated with hepatic cirrhosis and portal hypertension
Without treatment they lead to life-threatening bleeding in about 1/3 of patients
Mallory weiss syndrome
-lacration of GSTRIC SIDE: lower eso and upper gastric
-Heavy alcholol –>vomiting
-acute upper GI bleeding SEEN
-dont reperent caus eof peptic ulcer
-self-resolving, usually not need surgical intervention-so dont belong toACUTE ABDOMEN
Boerhaave sundorme
-esopahgeal side
-no acute upper GI bleeding
-posterlat wall of loer third of eso
most common bening tumors of eso
LEIOMYOMA:
: Spindle cell —> mesenchymal. Males affected in median age of 35
most common malignant ymor of eso in the world
squamos cell carcinoma
- no kertinzation
-middle 1/3 of eso
-smoking and alco
most comon malignant tumor of eso in the western
adenocarcinoma
-distal 1/3 of eso
-males
- It occurs in the background of intestinal metaplasiaTrue: Esophageal adenocarcinoma typically arises in the background of Barret’s esophagus and long standing GERD
