Q

The arterial branches from the superior mesenteric artery that supply the small intestine form arcades and have vasa recta (straight vessels) emanating from those arcades to the intestine itself.

The appearance of the arcades and vasa recta differs as the intestine progresses from jejunum to ileum. How?

A

jejunum: long vasa recta and fewer loops - A

ileum: larger arcades and vasa recta are shorter - B

45
Q

If pressure within the abdomen increased which part of the stomach would be most likely to be pushed superiorly through the oesophageal hiatus?

fundus

body

antrum

A

If pressure within the abdomen increased which part of the stomach would be most likely to be pushed superiorly through the oesophageal hiatus?

fundus

body

antrum

phylorus

  • Decreased abdominal muscle tone and increased pressure within the abdominal cavity could lead to the development of a hiatal hernia.*
  • Thus, people who are obese and women who are pregnant may be at an increased risk for developing a hiatal hernia.*
  • A hiatus hernia is when the fundus of the stomach passes through the oesophageal hiatus so stomach acid can pass into the oesophagus.*
