25
The hepatic diverticulum (liver) and cystic diverticulum (gallbladder) grow from the (dorsal/ventral) side of the duodenum.
ventral
26
The pancreas develops from dorsal and ventral pancreatic buds that fuse (before/after) gut rotation
after
27
During the 5th week of development the stomach rotates 90o around its _____ axis
craniocaudal
28
the midgut is suspended from the (dorsal/ventral) mesentery
dorsal
29
Rapid elongation of the midgut and mesentery | results in the ____
primary intestinal loop
30
due to spatial constraints, the primary intestinal loop protrudes into the umbilicus
physiological umbilical herniation
31
Reversed rotation of the gut is due to a (clockwise/counterclockwise) 180degree rotation as it retracts
clockwise
32
Midgut rotation defects can result in twisting of | the intestine known as
volvulus
33
consequences of volvulus
obstruction, compromised blood flow
34
a persistent remnant of the | vitelline duct projecting from the ileum
Meckel's diverticulum
35
consequences of Meckel's diverticulum
usually asymptomatic
36
(umbilical hernia/omphalocele): covered by skin
umbilical hernia
37
a protrusion of bowel through the umbilical ring covered by a thin membrane that may rupture
omphalocele
38
the protrusion of the bowel | lateral to the umbilical ring with no covering
gastroschisis
39
While outside the abdominal cavity, the intestine undergoes a 90o (clockwise/counterclockwise rotation)
counterclockwise
40
The cloaca is partitioned into the anorectal canal and | the urogenital sinus by the
urorectal septum
41
The cloacal membrane ruptures and the tip of the urorectal septum forms the _____
perineum
42
Defects in formation of the cloaca or urorectal septum can | result in a ____ or ____ fistula
rectourethral or rectovaginal
43
____ or ____ occurs if the | cloacal membrane fails to breakdown properly
Imperforate anus or anal stenosis
44
the three constrictor muscles are supplied by what nerves
from pharyngeal plexus
45
role of three constrictor muscles
decrease lumen of pharynx
46
role of three longitudinal muscles
elevate pharynx and larynx during swallowing and phonation
47
innervation of three longitudinal muscles of pharynx
pharyngeal plexus, except stylopharyngeus muscle--CN IX
48
where are adenoids (pharyngeal tonsils) located relative to Eustachian tube
posterior and superior to opening of Eustachian tube
49
three problems if adenoids are enlarged
infection, impair hearing, block air passage
50
where is the oropharynx
beneath soft palate and anterior to epiglottis
51
two important landmarks for tonsillectomy
palatoglossal and palatopharyngeal arches
52
post op problems for tonsillectomy
bleeding from damage to ascending pharyngeal and facial arteries
53
edema in region of tonsillectomy may impinge on which nerve
CN IX
54
damage to CN IX causes what symptom
loss of taste
55
something stuck in pririform recess would impinge on which nerves
internal and recurrent laryngeal nerves
56
five soft palate muscles
levator veli palatini, tensor veli palatini, palatoglossus, palatopharyngeus, musuclus uvulae
57
innervation of muscles in soft palate
pharyngeal plexus (vagus), except tensor veli--V3
58
what group of muscles controls descent of the larynx during the third stage of swallowing
infrahyoids
59
component fibers present in branch of glossopharyngeal nerve found in tonsillar bed
somatic motor to stylopharyngeus muscle, general sensory from mucosa of pharynx/tonsils/soft palate and posterior 1/3 of tongue, special sensory post 1/3 tongue
60
component fibers present in branch of glossopharyngeal nerve found in tympanic branch
general sensory-mucosa of tympanic cavity, auditory tube, mastoid air cells lesser petrosal nerve--pregang parasymp to otic ganglion
61
which CN's must be intact for swallowing
