Tail of pancreas
which artery ruputures
in DU ?

To gain access to Coeliac axis , which structure must be divided in surgery ?
Lesser omentum
Rectum
Length ?
Diameter ?
Extent ?
Length - 12-15cm
Diameter - 4cm ( in empty state )
Extent - S3 to tip of coccyx
Describe about folds of Rectum .
3 transverse rectal folds (or) valves of Houston
- left
- right
- left
Peritoneal coverings of Rectum
Superior 1/3 - anterior & lateral surfaces
Middle 1/3 - anterior only
Lower 1/3 - no peritoneal covering
Posterior - extraperitoneal
Anterior relations of rectum
male / female
Male
- rectovesicle pouch
- base of bladder
- seminal vesicle
- prostate
Female
- rectouterine pouch ( of Douglas )
- posterior wall of Vagina
Posterior relations of rectum
- Sacrum
- Coccyx
- lower sacral nerves
- middle sacral artery
What separates rectum & prostate in male ?
Fascia of Denonvilliers
Lateral relations of rectum
Levator ani
Coccygeus
Fascias anterior & posterior of rectum
Anterior - Denovillier fascia ( bet rectum & prostate )
Posterior - Waldeyer fascia ( bet rectum & sacrum coccyx )
Arteries supplying rectum & anal canal ( and their origin )
Superior rectal A ( IMA ) - above pectinate line
Middle rectal A ( IIA ) - below pectinate line
Inferior rectal A ( internal budendal artery of IIA )
Ischianal fossa boundaries
Anterior - UG diaphragm
Posterior - Gluteus maximus
Lateral - Ischial tuberosity , Obturator externus
Medial - Levator ani , anal sphincter
Importance of pectinate line
- It forms the junction between endoderm & ectoderm .
- Above - supplied by ANS
Below - by somatic nerves and is sensitive to pain - Above - Veins drain into portal system
Below - into system veins - Above - lymphatics drain into aortic LN
Below - drains into inguinal LN
Blood supply of Large Intestine
from SMA & IMA
SMA branches
Ileocolic > caecum & ascending colon
Right colic > ascending colon
Mid colic > transverse colon
IMA branches
Left colic > descending colon
Sigmoid branches > sigmoid colon
Superior rectal > rectum
Blood supply of appendix
Appendicular artery
from where it comes from Ileocolic artery
Blood supply of caecum
Ileocolic artery
Which structure can be identified at the point at which all the teania coli converge ?
Appendix base
Variable positions of the appendix
Retrocaecal ( 75% ) Pelvic ( 20% ) Preileal Postileal Paracaecal Subcaecal
What structure should be divide if the retrocaecal appendix is difficult to access ?
Lateral peritoneal attachments of the caecum
Large intestinal diameter
Caecum - 8 cm
Ascending - 6.5 cm
Descending - 6.5 cm
Transverse - 6 cm
Rectum - 6 cm
