Q

two different types of dumping syndrome and causes

A

Q

Parietal cells release what?

A

H+ and intrinsic factor

Q

A

activate phospholipase which increases Ca (PIP -> DAG + IP3 to increase Ca), Ca-Calmodulin activates phosphorylase kinase -> increases H+

38
Q

Q

truncal vagotomy versus proximal vagotomy?

proximal: highly selective, divides individual fibers, normal emptying of solids

47
Q

most common problem following vagotomy, tx

A

diarrhea: caused by sustained MMCs (migrating motor complex) forcing bile into the colon and leading to osmotic diarrhea

Q

what is ZES?

A

gastric acid hypersecretion, peptic ulcers, gastrinoma

52
Q

what are 3 surgical options for acid-reducing surgery? assoc recurrence rate of ulcers?

A
  1. proximal vagotomy: 10-15% recurrence, 0.1% mortality
