Q

What is important to remember about the non-glandular part

A

It has no protection from stomach acids, so if stomach acid touches the non-glandular part it can cause ulcers

Q

Describe the descending part of the duodenum

A
  • Has a relationship w/ the mesoduodenum

Q

What side of the abdomen is the descending duodenum found

A

The right side

21
Q

What is the red arrow pointing to?

A

The descending duodenum found in front of the last rib (18th rib)

22
Q

Where is the jejunum found

A

Dorsal & left to the midline

23
Q

Describe the ileum found in equine

A
  • Communicates immediately w/ the caecum instead of the colon (like in dogs)
  • Communicates medially w/ the caecum by the Ileocaecal orifice
24
Q

Label the following

25
What is the red arrow pointing to
The jejunum
26
Label the following
27
Describe the development of the large intestine in equine
* The position @ first is similar to dogs * The caecum & colon undergo remarkable enlargements & take up most of the abdomen
28
Describe the cecum found in equine
* Base found in the dorsal right side * Body is in the right ventral abdomen * Apex is found central & ventral to the midline btw/ the left & right colon
29
What forms the taenias & why is it important
* The longitudinal smooth muscles * Important for movement * 4 in the cecum
30
What are haustras, what is found between them, & why are they important?
* Haustras = sacculations * Btw/ them = semilunar folds * Communicates directly w/ the ileum (by the ileal papilla) surrounded by a sphincter & the right ventral colon (caecolocolic orfice)
31
Label the cecum superficial structures:
32
Label the following cecum:
33
Describe the path of the ascending colon (large colon)
right ventral colon -> sternal flexure -> Left ventral -> Pelvic flexure -> left dorsal -> diaphragmatic flexure -> right dorsal
34
Label the following colon:
* A: Right ventral * B: Sternal flexure * C: Left ventral * D: Pelvic flexure * E: Left dorsal * F: Diaphragmatic flexure * Right dorsal
35
What is the smallest part of the colon? How can this cause problems?
* The left dorsal part of the ascending colon * Can cause entrapment of digesta in equine
36
What is the biggest part of the colon
The right dorsal part of the asending colon
37
What is the only peritoneum found around the colon (remanent of the mesocolon)
Intercolic ligament (found between the ventral parts & dorsal ventral parts of the ascending colon)
38
Label the following colon
39
Label the following (1,3,4,5 & 6, 8, 10, & 12)
1: base of the cecum 12: Right ventral ascending colon 10: Sternal flexure 8: left ventral 6 & 5: Dorsal left 4: Diaphragmatic flexure 3: Dorsal right
40
Label the following
41
T/F: The descending & transverse colon don't have a mesos connecting them to the abdomen
False they both have a mesos
42
Can you do an abdominal palpation on large animals
No b/c they have strong abdominal mulsces & large organs so you have to auscultated
43
What can be auscultated in the right dorsal quadrant of the free stomach
* Base of the cecum * Mixing movement
44
What can be auscultated in the left dorsal quadrant of the free stomach
* Small intestine (jejunum) * Descending colon
45
What can be auscultated in the left ventral quadrant of the free stomach
* Left ventral colon * Left dorsal colon
46
What can be auscultated in the right ventral quadrant of the free stomach
* Right ventral colon * Body of the cecum
47
What is the technical term for a gut sound
Borborygmus (pleural = borborygmi)
48
How many borborygmi is considered normal, hypomotile, & hypermotile
* Norm: 1 to 3 per min * Hypo: < 1 per min * Hyper: > 3 per min
