Q

A

25
What part of the duodenum receives the ampulla?
2nd pt. at the duodenal papilla
26
What bridges the 4th part of the duodenum to the diaphragm?
- Suspensory muscle of the diaphragm from RIGHT CRUS of diaphragm - Happens at the duodenojejunal junction
27
What structures are located in the "nutcracker" and what makes the "nutcracker?"
- Left renal artery - 3rd part of the duodenum - Uncinate process of pancreas
28
What parts of the duodenum are in contact with the pancreas?
1st, 2nd, and 3rd parts
29
What part of the pancreas is in the transpyloric plane?
Neck
30
Describe the relationship of the pancreas to the SMA
Neck - is anterior to the SMA | Uncinate - posterior to the SMA
31
What is the relationship of the pancreas to the Portal v.?
the PORTAL VEIN forms from the splenic v. and SMV POSTERIOR to the NECK of the pancreas - THIS OCCURS IN THE TRANSPYLORIC PLANE
32
What parts of the GI tract make up the foregut and what is its arterial supply?
- Mouth to papilla in the 2nd pt of the duodenum | - Celiac Trunk
33
What parts of the GI tract make up the midgut and what is its arterial supply?
- papilla of 2nd part of the duodenum almost to the splenic flexure - SMA
34
What parts of the GI tract make up the hindgut and what is the arterial supply?
- Splenic flexure to anus | - IMA
35
What makes up the proximal 2/5 of the small intestines?
Jejunum | - so the ileum is the longest part
36
What anatomical features help to differentiate the jejunum from the other parts of the SI?
- More absorptive, Thicker walls - translucent mesentery (less fat) and larger windows - only two tiers of arteries (arcades)
37
What is the longest part of the small intestines?
- Ileum (distal 3/5)
38
What anatomical features help to differentiate the ileum from other parts of the SI?
- Thinner, less absorptive walls - Mesentery is more fatty - more extensive arterial arcades
39
Where does the large intestine begin?
At the cecum
40
What parts of the large intestine are intraperitoneal?
Transverse and Sigmoid
41
Is there collateral circulation to the large intestine, if so what is it?
- Yes | - This is provided by the marginal a.
42
What are 3 distinguishing features of the large intestine?
1. Tenia coli (large longitudinal bands of muscle) 2. Haustra ("pouches") 3. Appendices epipcolae (little appendages of fat)
43
Where is McBurney's point and what does it approximate?
- 1/3 of the way up on a line drawn from ASIS to the Umbilicus - Marks the ileocecal junction
44
Why is McBurney's point clinically important?
- it becomes tender in appendicitis
45
At what vertebral level does the abdominal aorta bifurcate into the R and L common illiac arteries?
L4
46
Where is the inferior vena cava formed and by what?
- L5, by the R and L common iliac veins
47
Where does the thoracic duct begin?
at the cisterna chyli
48
What part of the kidney is located in the transpyloric plane?
Hila of both kidneys
49
How does drainage of the gonadal v. and suprarenal v. differ on the R and L?
On the Right: Drain to the IVC On the Left: Drain to the Left Renal V.
50
T or F: the Left renal vein is in the nutcracker formed by the SMA.
True
51
What posterior structure does the L. Renal vien get pressed against in the nutcracker?
Aorta
52
What is the order of the structures entering the hilum of the kidney?

53
What is the flow of urine through the structures of the kidney?
1. Medullary Pyramid 2. Minor Calyx 3. Major Calyzx 4. Renal Pelvis 5. Ureter
54
What structure do the kidney's come into contact with medially?
psoas major
55
What muscle lies posterior to the kidney?
quadratus lumborum
56
What gives arterial blood supply to the suprarenal glands?
1. Superior Suprarenal a. => Inferior Phenic a. 2. Middle Suprarenal a. => aorta 3. Inferior suprarenal a. => renal a.
57
What take the venous return from the suprarenal glands?
Right: IVC Left: Left Renal v.
58
What forms the median arcuate ligament?
- R and L crura from the diaphragm attach to the lumbar vertebral bodies - This creates the aortic hiatus
59
What does the right crus of the diaphragm do?
- Forms esophageal hiatus (extends from left side of esophagus to right side of aorta) - Forms Suspensory ligament (extends over right side of the diaphragm to attach to duo-jej junction)
60
What passes under the median arcuate ligament?
Aorta | Thoracic duct
61
What structures does the medial arcuate ligament span?
- L2 body | - L1 transverse process
62
What passes posterior to the medial arcuate ligament?
- Psoas major
63
What structures does the lateral arcuate artery span?
- L1 transverse process | - Rib 12
64
What passes posterior to lateral arcuate ligament?
quadratus lumborum
65
What are some major structures in the transpyloric plane (L1/L2)?
- 1st part of duodenum - pylorus of stomach - origin of SMA - fundus of gallbladder - neck of pancreas - formation of portal v. - hilum of right and left kidey
66
What nerve rides on top of psoas major?
Genitofemoral n.
67
What does the genital portion of the genitofemoral n. innervate?
cremaster muscle
68
What nerve is deep to psoas major?
obturator n.
69
What nerve is deep and lateral to psoas major and obturator n.?
Femoral n.
70
What nerve "Splits the iliacus"?
