26
Describe the camelid stomach (chambers and interior)
Three-chambered stomach (C1, C2 and C3). All have glandular saccules.
27
Where does the esophagus open into in camelids
The esophagus opens into caudo-dorsal sac of the rumen
28
Describe the camelid greater omentum compared to ruminant
less fat, smaller than ruminant and no omental sling.
29
Describe C1 external structure of the camelid
Rumen Divided by a groove into 2 sacs: Cranioventral sac (small and has glandular sacs inside) Large caudodorsal sac. (ballon-like) presents: * Right & left ruminal grooves for ruminal vessels, nerves & Lnn. * Its dorsal surface has no peritoneum (attached to diaphragm & sublumbar M.)
30
Where is the spleen attached in camelids
The spleen is attached to the large caudodorsal sac on the caduodorsal surface.
31
1) spleen 2) cd dorsal rumen sac 3) C1 4) saccular region 5) abomasum 6) cranial ventral rumen sac 7) C1 8) saccular region 9) reticulum, C2 10,11) C3, omasum
32
Describe the interior of C1
Non keratinized and non papillated The mucus membrane has 2 types: a. Wrinkled mucous membrane with Corrugated folds. Glandular sacculated ruminal chambers (SRC) water sac
33
list the three groups of water sacs
Group in the cranioventral sac Two groups in the caudodorsal sac (separated by longitudinal muscular band) ( Each group consists of musculomembranous ridges connected by muscular folds enclosing square spaces (2-3 cm) in depth.)
34
Describe the shape and location of C2
Reticulum bean shape right to to the median plane (between 7th -10th rib) Does not reach to abdominal floor Separated from the diaphragm by the omasum
35
Describe the interior of C2
It is a pseudo-reticulum (no honey comb reticular cells) has reticular cells (12 circular parallel musculo-membranous ridges, which subdivided by 2ry and 3ry folds into smaller squares (like bird nests) giving the spongy consistency of the reticular wall.
36
Which camelid chamber of the stomach is this
C2, reticulum
37
Which camelid chamber of the stomach is this
C1, rumen
38
Describe the shape and location of C3
omasoabomasal complex long sausage shape In the right side of intrathoracic part of abd. Cavity. (7-10th rib) Ventral to the cardia Lies dorsal to the cranial sac of C1
39
Describe the interior of C3
omasal part: 40-50 omasal lamellae of equal height (longitudinal mucosal folds) omaso-abomasal junction seen on interior (no demarcation externally) Abomasal fundic region: (has 18-20 thick mucosal parallel folds) form 2/3 of abomasum. Abomasal pyloric region: smooth, It forms the distal 1/3. has well developed torus pyloricus which extends like a long pencil in the abomasal mucosa.
40
Describe the shape and location of the camelid spleen
Crescent-shaped (convex cranially and concave caudally where it embraces the left kidney). Caudodorsal to rumen Lies in the left flank. Attached to stomach by gastrosplenic lig.
41
Describe the camelid liver and lobes
No gall bladder Right lobe Left lobe (divided) Caudate (caudate and papillary processes) Quadrate (quadrate process)
42
Where is the camelid liver located and describe its appearance
The liver covers C2 and most of C3 Abundant connective tissue, external surface appears cut by a knife
43
Describe camelid cranial duodenum
Has ampulla duodeni and sigmoid loop
44
Describe camelid cecum appearance and location
It Looks like that of ruminants Smooth, no tenia & conical in shape apex directed toward the pelvic inlet. It continues as the colon and the line of demarcation is the ileocecal ligament. Has Ileocecocolic opening
45
Describe camelid colon
Resembles that of ruminant with terms of arrangement only. It has large diameter, which is interrupted by some constrictions of variable lengths and diameter. The colic disc (spiral colon) is more massive where centripetal gyri are superficial while centrifugal gyri are deeper in position. Ascending, spiral loop, descending (with sigmoid colon)
46
How many centripetal gyri are there in cows vs sheep vs goats vs camelids
2 in ox, 3 sheep 4 in goat 5.5 in camel and equal # of centrifugal gyri.
47
Describe camelid external kidney
Not lobated Look like dog and small ruminant kidneys Smooth exterior
48
Describe camelid internal kidney
Unipyramidal Well developed renal crest thick medulla (lots of filtration to save urine) Pelvic recesses
49
true/false: camelid kidneys are symmetrical in location in the body
false, left is more caudal
