GIT Flashcards
KCP 2
pathology
What is Hirschsprung disease?
dilatation of colon proximal to inactive segment
pathology
What causes Hirschsprung disease?
caused by absence of enteric ganglia (parasympathetic postganglionic neuron cell bodies) in lower part of colon.
Congenital: failure of migration of neural crest to form myenteric plexus
embryology
How is primitive gut tube formed?
Incorporation of yolk sac into embryonic disc during craniocaudal and lateral folding of embryo
embryology
Which germ layer give rise to different tissues of GIT?
Endoderm: endothelial + glands of GIT
splanchnopleuric mesoderm: muscular, connective tissue
embryology
What is vitelline duct?
Connects primitive gut tube with yolk sac
embryology
Embryological basis of errors in esophageal development
- Esophageal stenosis: incomplete esophageal recanalisation
- Achalasia cardia/achalasia: failure of relaxation of musculature in lower part of esophagus/ failure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) to relax that is caused by the degeneration of inhibitory neurons within the esophageal wall
- Tracheosophageal fistula: incomplete fusion of tracheoesophageal septum
- Short esophagus: failed to elongate, stomach exists inside thoracic cavity, cause congenital hiatal hernia
embryology
Developmental process of stomach
Along longitudinal axis: 90 clockwise
Along ant.-post. axis: pyloric part right and upwards, cephalic part left and downwards
embryology
Developmental process of stomach with errors
Congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis: hypertrophic of circular muscle at pylorus
embryology
Source and developmental errors of pancreas
Source: endoderm of developing duodenum
Error: annular pancreas- ventral pancreas splits and forms a ring around duodenum, duodenum stenosis
embryology
Derivatives of ventral and dorsal pancreatic bud
Ventral bud: uncinate process and head of pancreas
Dorsal bud: remaining parts of pancreas
embryology
Derivatives of developing mesentery
Dorsal mesentery:
-dorsal mesogastrium/greater omentum
-dorsal mesoduodenum
-mesentery proper
-dorsal mesocolon
Ventral mesentery
-falciform ligament
-lesser omentum
embryology
Which artery form the axis of primary intestinal loop?
SMA
embryology
Rotation of midgut
-physiological herniation (6th week): 90 counterclockwise (entering yolk sac)
-retraction (10th week): 90 counterclockwise (cecal bud goes upwards at cranial limb)
-total retraction: 90 counterclockwise (cecum starts descending after 270)
embryology
Developmental error of midgut
- Rotation issue
-non rotation
-reverse rotation: all rotations clockwise
-subhepatic cecum and appendix - Recanalization failure
-exomphalos/omphalocele: failure of physiological herniation
-congenital umbilical hernia: ant. abdominal wall defect - Vitelline duct issue
-vitelline cyst
-vitelline/umbilical fistula
-Meckel’s diverticulum
4.duodenum
-atresia and stenosis
embryology
Developmental errors of hindgut
- Rectal fistulae: imperforated anus and rectal atresia
- Imperforate anus: got anal pit and cloacal membrane
- Congenital megacolon/ Hirschsprung’s disease:parasympathetic fails to develop/ enteric NS
pharm PUD
What are the drugs used for peptic ulcer disease?
- Agents that reduce intragstric secretion/acidity
- proton pump inhibitors (PIP): omeprazole
- H2-receptor antagonists:cimetidine, ranitidine
- anti-muscarinic agents: pirenzepine
- antacids: aluminium hyroxide, calcium carbonate, Mg(OH)2, NaHCO3 - Mucoprotective agents
-prostaglandin analogues: misoprostol
-miscellaneous: bismuth compounds, sucralfate - Drugs for treatment of H. pylori infection
-triple therapy (PPI+clarithromycin+amoxicillin/metronidazole)
mnemonic:OCLAM
-quadruple therapy (PPI+metronidazole+bismuth subcitrate+tetracycline)
mnemonic: OBMT
pharm PUD
therapeutic use of PPI (omeprazole)
zollinger ellison syndrome (produce too much gastric acid)
dose reduction required in severe liver failure
pharm PUD
MOA of omeprazole
irreversible inhibition of proton pump H+/K+ ATPase> inhibit basal and stimulated acid secretion
pharm PUD
MOA of H2 receptor blockers (cimetidine, ranitidine)
competitively and reversibly block H2 receptor on parietal cells>adenylyl cyclase not activated>protein kinase not activated>inhibits histamine induced gastric secretions
promote mucosal healing and decrease pain
pharm PUD
AE of H2 antagonist: cimetidine and ranitidine
gynecomastia
impotence
galactorrhea
can cross BBB
decrease metabolism of CP450 inhibitor
pharm PUD
MOA of anticholinergic drug (pirenzepine)
block muscarinic M1 receptors on parietal cells> no Ca2+>protein kinase not activated> PP not activated>inhibit gastic acid secretion
used together w/ H2 receptor blockers like cimetidine, ranitidine
decrease pain in PU
pharm PUD
MOA of antacids (sodium bicarb, calcium carbonate, aluminium OH, magnesium OH)
binds to HCL, increase pH, neutralise gastric acid, inhibit pepsin
sodium bicarb causes stomach distension due to liberation of CO2
pharm PUD
AE of aluminium OH and magnesium OH
aluminium OH: constipation
magnesium OH: diarrhea
*no stomach distension
*when combine can avoid both AE
pharm PUD
MOA of sucrose octaphosphate+Al2(OH)3 (sucralfate)
in acidic condition, it dissociated into sucrose octaphosphate and an antacid
SO + positively charged protein (that coats ulcer)>inhibits pepsin>promotes healing
do not administer w/ H2 blockers
