16
Q

The mucous membrane of the duodenum presents circular folds called ___ which start at

A

Valves of Kerckring

Starts in the second part of duodenum

17
Q

Special features in the interior of second part :

A
  1. Major duodenal papillae
  2. Minor duodenal Papillae
  3. Arch of plica semicircularis
  4. Plica longitudinalis
18
Q

What is Major Duodenal Papillae

A

Well marked conical projection and the posteromedial surface of 2nd part of duodenum; On its summit opens the common hepatiopancreatic Duct

19
Q

What is Minor Duodenal Papillae

A

Small conical projection near the major duodenal papillae; On its summit opens the accessory pancreatic duct.

20
Q

Arch of Plica semicircularis :

A

Plica semicircularis forms an arch over Major duodenal papillae like a hood called Monks Hood

21
Q

Plica Longitudinalis :

A

Vertical Tortuous fold extending downwards from Major duodenal papillae

22
Q

The suspensory ligament, which suspends the duodenojejunal flexure to the right crus of diaphragm is called

A

Ligament Of Treitz

23
Q

What is duodenal Recess

A

In the region of duodenojejunal junction, small pocket like pouches of peritoneum called duodenal recesses occur

24
Q

Important peritoneal recesses

A 
Superior  duodenal  recess
Inferior duodenal  recess
Paraduodenal Recess
Retroduodenal Recess
Mesenteroparietal recess
25
Q

Superior Duodenal Recess location:

A

It lies to the left upper end of the fourth part of the duodenum, behind the superior duodenojejunal peritoneal fold with its mouth looking downward

26
Q

Inferior Duodenal Recess

A

It lies a little below the superior recess behind the inferior duodenojejunal peritoneal fold with its orifice looking upward.

27
Q

Paraduodenal Recess

A

It is the lowest when present. It lies
to the left of the fourth part of the duodenum behind the paraduodenal fold of the peritoneum with its orifice facing medially. “The paraduodenal fold contains inferior mesenteric vein in its free border” edge.

28
Q

Retroduodenal Recess

A

It is the largest of duodenal
recesses, but is rarely present. If present, it lies behind the third and fourth parts of the duodenum. Its orifice looks downward and to the left

29
Q

Mesenteroparietal Recess

A

It is found only in 1%
individuals. It lies below the duodenum behind the upper part of the mesentery. The superior mesenteric vessels lie in the anterior wall of its opening.

30
Q

Arterial Supply

A

Upper Half Supplied By : Celiac Trunk
Lower Half Supplied By : Superior Mesenteric Artery

  1. Superior Pancreatoduodenal Artery ( B. of Celiac Trunk )
  2. Inferior Pancreatoduodenal Artery ( B. of S. Mesenteric Artery )

These 2 arteries each divided into anterior and posterior branches; Each respective branches form anastomosis to form anterior posterior pancreaticoduodenal arcades
Each arcade forms a vasa recta

  1. Supraduodenal artery of “Wilkie” ( Branch of gastroduodenal branch of Celiac trunk supplying ant. and post. part of first part of duodenum )
  2. Retroduodenal branches of the gastroduodenal artery.
  3. Leash of branches of the hepatic artery.
  4. Branches from the right gastroepiploic artery.
7. Artery  from  the  first  jejunal  branch  of  the  superior  
mesenteric  artery ( Supplies the 4th Part )
31
Q

Venous drainage :

A

Veins corresponds to the arteries but are superficial compared to them and drain into Splenic, Superior Mesenteric and Portal Vein

32
Q

LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE :

A

Drain into pancreaticoduodenal nodes lying along the inner curve of the duodenum

33
Q

Nerve Supply :

A

Sympathetic nerves to the duodenum are derived from :T6–T9 segments

Parasympathetic nerves from both the vagi through coeliac and superior mesenteric plexuses.
