18
Q
  • Gastroschisis
A

​Failure of the body wall to close during WK 4-herniation of abdominal contents

Typically occurs on the right side

19
Q
  • Hirschprung’s Disease/Congenital Megacolon
A
  • Embryological mechanism: NCCs
  • Absence of ganglion cells (parasympathetics) which leads to constriction points along the GI tract (sympathetics taking over)
  • Areas that contain feces do have ganglion cells/parasympathetics present
20
Q
  • Congenital diaphragmatic hernia
A
  • Herniation of abdominal contents into thoracic cavity
  • Happens b/c pleuroperitoneal canals do not duse with septum transversum
  • Large opening in posterolateral diaphragm (Foramen of Bochdalek)
  • 85-90% occur on left side
  • Characteristics
    • Hypoplastic lungs
    • Polyhydramnios
21
Q
  • Midgut non-rotation
A
  • SI on right
  • LI on left
  • Some asymptomatic
  • Increased likelihood of obstruction d/t tighter turns
22
Q
  • Mid-gut reversed rotation
A
  • Transverse colon is posterior to the duodenum
  • Common to have obstructions in the transverse colon
23
Q
  • Formation of the definitive gut lumen
A
  1. Hollow gut tube
  2. Endothelial lining proliferates
  3. Recanalization
  4. Creation of definitive hollow gut tube

What can go wrong:

  • Duplication (not true diverticulum, but can accumulate food and lead to wall rupture)
  • Stenosis (apoptosis did not occur correctly; leads to narrowing of canal and increased likelihood of obstruction)
24
Q
  • Meckel’s Diverticulum
A
  • Abnormality of the vitelline duct (which normally regressesm but instead it is pulling on the ileum)
  • Projection of ileum to abdominal wall
  • Can lead to intestinal obstructionm GI bleeding, Bowel Sepsis

RULE OF 2s:

  • 2% pop, 2 x more likely males, Age 2
  • 2 ft inferior to ileocecal junction
  • 2 in long
  • 2 types of ectopic tissue (gastric and pancreatic)
25
Q
  • Omphalomesenteric fistula
A
  • Vitellointestinal duct remains open
  • Feces coming out of umbilicus
26
Q
  • Omphalomesenteric cyst
A
  • Usually detected post-mortum
  • Cyst develops in vitelline duct
27
Q
  • Omphalomesenteric ligament
A
  • Fibrous band connecting ileum to umbilicus but didn’t pull enough on ileum to cause a diverticulum
28
Q
  • The cloacal membrane is made of what two germ layers?
  • _ septum grows towards the cloacal membrane and divides the hindgut into the:

  • Parietal layer of the peritoneal cavity comes from _ mesoderm
A
  • Serous membrane/splanchnic mesoderm
  • Dorsal
  • Ventral
  • Splanchnic
  • Somatic
36
Q
  • Regional specializations of the mesentaries
  • Thoracic esophagus and anus are _
A
  • Foregut and heart

Q
  • What makes up the dorsal mesogastrium?
A
  • Splenorenal (leinorenal ligament)
  • Gastrolienal ligament
  • Greater omentum

Attaches posterior body wall to stomach

38
Q
  • What makes up the ventral mesogastrium?
A
  • Lesser omentum
39
Q
  • What makes up the ventral mesentary?
A
  • Falciform ligament (liver to anterior abdominal wall)
40
Q
  • The greater omentum comes from _ mesogastrium and has _ layers
A
  • Dorsal
  • 4
41
