Embryology

Digestive System

QuestionAnswer
Q The primitive gut is a tube of what? A Endoderm
Q What are the divisions of the digestive system? A Pharynx, Foregut, midgut, hindgut
Q Which division of the digestive system extends from the buccopharyngeal membrane to the tracheobronchial diverticulum A The pharynx
Q What does the foregut span? A from the pharynx to the entrance of the bile ductinto duodenum
Q Which division of the DS extends from duodenum (distal to bile duct entrance) to proximal 2/3 of transverse colon? A This is the midgut, which grows the most.
Q: What does the hindgut span? A distal 1/3 of transverse colon to the cloacal membrane
Q What artery supplies the foregut? A celiac artery
Q which gut does the sup. mesenteric artery supply? and which the inf. mesenteric artery? A sup. to the midgut, inf. to the hindgut
Q Do you remember what the septum that divides the digestive/respiratory tubes is called? A esophagotracheal septum
Q What structures are found in the foregut? A esophagus, stomach, duodenum, liver, gall bladder, pancreas
Q Which portion of the esophagus is striated m., and which smooth? A upper 2/3 striated, lower 1/3 smooth
Q When the proximal portion of the esophagus ends in a blind sac, it is called_____ A atresia, this condition also results in polyhydramnios
Q When the distal portion of the esophagus connects to the trachea, it is called ______ A esophagotracheal fistula. This also results in polyhydramnios
Q What is the innervation of the stomach? A VEGAS BABY
Q: describe the rotation of the stomach from the orignal noodle. A check her notes for more info. mainly it rotates longitudinally clockwise, and the dorsal side ends up inferior to form the greater curvature
Q This condition involves hypertrophy of the muscular layer of the stomach, which narrows the pyloric lumen, and obstructs passage of food. A pyloric stenosis
Q Which gut(s) form the duodenum? A foregut, and midgut
Q does the lumen of the duodenum persist throughout developement? A no, it is obliterated and then recanalized.
Q which gut(s) is the liver formed from? A foregut
Q This structure penetrates into the septum transversum during growth A the liver
Q what does the liver's connection to the foregut form? A the bile duct
Q what does the outgrowth of the bile duct form?> A the gall bladder and the cystic duct
Q What are the hepatic sinusoids derived from? A vitelline veins
Q CT, Kupffer cells, and hematopoietic cells are derived from ______ A mesoderm
Q Which mesogastrium developes into the greater omentum? A the dorsal mesogastrium
Q which mesogastrium is derived from the septum transversum? A the ventral mesogastrium
Q which mesogastrium is attached to the greater curvature of the stomach? A the dorsal
W which mesogastrium is divided into two parts by the developing liver? A the ventral is divided into the lesser omentum (between liver and stomach) and the falciform ligament (between the liver and ventral body wall)
Q what gut is the pancreas derived from? A the foregut
Q The pancreas is developed through two buds of endoderm in the duodenal region. Which bud attaches via the "duct of Santorini"? A the dorsal bud, in the dorsal mesentery
Q How does the ventral bud of the developing pancreas attach to the duodenum? A the ventral bud lies close to the bile duct. It attaches via the "duct of Wirsung"
Q Which pancreatic bud forms the inf. part of the head of the panreas, and the prox. part of the main pancreatic duct. A the ventral bud. The main pancreatic duct is called the "duct of wirsung". KNOW THIS.
Q The dorsal bud of the develping pancreas is the major portion of the gland. What ducts are found in this portion?? A The distal portion of the main pancreatic duct (what is it called again?) and the dorsal duct, which may persist as an accessory pancreatic duct.
Q Which bud of the pancreas encircles the duodenum in an "annular pancreas"? A the ventral bud, and may constrict or ostruct the pancreas
Q Where is accessory pancreatic tissue most commonly found? A in the stomach or Meckel's diverticulum.
Q A unique structure appears in the pancreas in month three, and insulin is secreted two months later. What is this? A Islets of Langerhans
Q this structure elongates rapdily and extends out into the connecting stalk A The primary intestinal loop
Which portion of the prox. intestinal loop covers the distal duodenum, jejunum, and pox ileum? A cephalic limb
Q What does the caudal limb of the primary intestinal loop cover? A distal ileum, cecum, appendix, ascending colon, and prox 2/3 of transverse colon
Q The midgut rotates 270 degrees counterclockwise around what axis? A around the axis of the sup. mesenteric artery.
Q Other than the distal 1/3 colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum, what are derivatives of the hindgut? A the prox portion anal canal, and the internal lining of the bladder/urethra
Q This is an endoderm lined cavity in contact w/ surface ectoderm at the cloacal membrane? A the Cloaca. remember, ENDODERM lined cavity, in contact with surface ECTODERM
Q What divides the terminal portion of the hindgut into a primitive urogenital sinus and an anorectal canal? A the urorectal septum
Q The cloacal membrane is divided into what two membranes? A the urogenital membrane, and the anal membrane
Q What marks the junction between the endodermal/ectodermal regions of the anal canal? A the pectinate line
Q The upper part of the anal canal is lined by endoderm of columnar epithelium, what is the lower part lined by? A ectoderm(proctodeum) of startified squamous epithelium
Q what is a persistent portion of the vitelline duct called? A Meckel's diverticulum
Q If the end of the vitelline duct close, and leave the middle portion intact it is called a cyst
