25
pyloric orifice has a sphincter called
Pyloric Sphincter
26
controls food movement into the small intestines from the stomach and prevents the S.I. being overwhelmed
Pyloric Sphincter
27
the concave medial surface of the stomach, which is shorter, concave right border
Lesser Curvature
28
the convex lateral surface which is the longer, convex left border
Greater Curvature
29
extending from these curvatures are two mesenteries called
omenta / omentum
30
extends from the liver to the lesser curvature of the stomach
Lesser omentum
31
a saclike mesentery, extends from the greater curvature of the stomach
Greater omentum
32
is the sharp bend on the lesser curvature below its midpoint
Incisura Angularis
33
a lining membrane which forms a longitudinal fold that partly disappear when the stomach is full
Rugae
34
is a convoluted tube 6-7 m (about 20 feet) long in a cadaver but only about 2 m 6(feet) long during life because of its muscle tone
Small Intestine
35
it extends from the pyloric sphincter to the ileocecal valve.
Small Intestine
36
the small intestine is suspended by a double layer of peritoneum the fan-shaped
Mesentery
37
is the first 25 cm (10 inches) of the small intestines which form a double loop.
Duodenum
38
it extends from the pyloric sphincter and cure around the head of the pancreas
Duodenum
39
is the first part of the duodenum
Superior Duodenum
40
passes downward to the right CBD
Desceding Duodenum
41
passes to the left across the midline
Transverse Duodenum
42
passes up behind the stomach to join jejunum
Ascending Duodenum
43
lies in this curve of the duodenum and approximately 7.5cm to pylorus
Head of Pancreas
44
which bile and pancreatic juice enter the duodenum
Hepato - Pancreatic Ampulla
45
continuous with the duodenum extends for 2.5m (about 8 feet) long and occupies the umbilical region of the abdominal cavity
Jejunum
46
the terminal portion of the small intestines is about 3.6m (12 feet) long
Ileum
47
The ileum joins the large intestine at the
Ileocecal valve
48
he ileocecal junction has a sphincter called
Ileocecal Sphincter
49
is about 1.5 m (5 feet) long and extends from the ileocecal junction to the anjs
Large Intestine or Colon
50
Large intestine is also called
Colon
51
it forms an inverted U shaped structure
Large Intestine
52
it describe the (L) lateral abdomen to the pelvis
Large Intestine
53
is that part of the colon that forms a pouch below ileocecal junction
Cecum
54
varies in length from 2-6 inches in length it usually lies below the cecum but may also lie behind, medial or lateral to the cecum
Vermiform Appendix
55
is a continuation with the cecum that us why feces or fecal material from the cecum may pass in and back out of the appendix
lumen or the cavity of the appendix
56
passes up from the cecum
Ascending Colon
57
is a bend of the colon to the (L) under the (R) liver surface
Hepatic Flexure / (R) Colic
58
passes across the upper abdomen
Transverse Colon
59
is a bend of the colon where the transverse colon ends
Splenic Flexures / (L) Colic
60
extends down from the splenic flexure to the brim of the pelvis in the (L) lateral abdomen
Descending Colon
61
is the S shaped curved part of the distal colon
Sigmoid / Pelvic Colon
62
is the final part of the colon
Rectum
63

Anal Canal
64
composed of skeletal muscle
voluntary external anal sphincter
65
composed of smooth muscle
involuntary internal anal sphicter
66
in large intestine the longitudinal muscle layer of the muscularis externa is reduced to three longitudinal muscle
Tenia Coli
67
they cause the wall to pucker into small pocket-like sacs called
