Rosai Chapter 15 - Small Bowel Flashcards
(129 cards)
The anatomic landmark for the duodenojejunal junction, at which site the bowel becomes unfixed and wrapped in mesentery
Ligament of Treitz
other name of Transverse mucosal folds in the innerside of the small bowel
Valvulae conniventes or Kerckring folds
a two-lip structure in which lymphoid tissue and often adipose tissue tends to accumulate and where the small bowel ends
ileocecal valve
What small bowel segment?
Mucosa is Short and Stubby (sometimes leaf-like)
Duodenum
What small bowel segment?
Mucosa is Tall and Club-like
Jejunum
What small bowel segment?
Mucosa is of intermediate height
Ileum
IHC of Normal small bowel enterocytes
Pattern of CK7 and CK20
- CK7 neg
- CK20 pos
Most common location of heterotopic pancreas
Duodenum (particularly in the region of the Ampulla of Vater)
The consequence of a persistent patency of the entire vitelline duct
Enteroumbilical fistula
Most common complication of total intestinal aganglionosis
Enterocolitis
Transverse mucosal folds in the proximal jejunum
Prominent
Transverse mucosal folds in the terminal ileum
Flat or Absent
Location of Peyer patches in the terminal ileum
Antimesenteric side
This comprise the lower 20% of the small bowel epithelium and represent its proliferative zone
Crypts of Lieberkuhn
A type of transmembrane glycoprotein involved in signaling and adhesion and has been found to stain the human lymph (lacteal) vessels of the bowel but not the lymph vessels of other organs
CD38
Characteristic feature of the ileum
Peyer patches
Lymph drainage of duodenum (2)
- Portal nodes
- Pyloric nodes
Lymph drainage of jejunum and proximal ileum (2)
- Nodes located in the mesentery
- Nodes located around the SMA
Lymph drainage of Terminal ileum
Ileocolic nodes
An abnormal thickening of the pylorus that causes small bowel obstruction in the neonatal population
Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
The result of persistence of the proximal portion of the vitelline duct
Meckel diverticulum
Usual location of Meckel diverticulum in adults
approximately 80 cm proximal to the ileocecal valve
Characteristic location of Jejunal diverticula
along the Mesenteric border
a congenital anomaly resulting from an error in intestinal development such that (most commonly):
- Cecum is on the left
- Duodenal-jejunal flexure is on the right
- Mesentery is narrow and unstable in position
Malrotation
