ACCURATE SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
⩥ Transverse Fascia. Answer: defects in the transverse fascia can cause
direct & indirect hernias
⩥ hernia. Answer: rupture
⩥ Pantaloon Hernia. Answer: when a direct & indirect hernia are present
⩥ Umbilical Hernia. Answer: due to developmental deficiencies
congenital umbilical hernia or weakness in linea alba in area of
umbilicus
⩥ Inguinal Hernia. Answer: hernia occuring in the groin area, more
common in males
*landmarks inguinal ring, inferior epigastric vessels, and spermatic
vessels
⩥ McVays Repair. Answer: used to repair femoral hernias(transverse
fascia &conjoined tendon to cooper's lagament(pectenial ligament)
,⩥ Ligament of Cooper's. Answer: lateral extension of lucuner ligament,
surrounds spermatic cord & testies. Cremaster muscle forms a ring
around spermatic cord, continuation of internal oblique, Genito femoral
intervals cremaster muscle & over middle surface of the thigh
⩥ McBurneys Incision. Answer: oblique RLQ incision appendix
removal
⩥ Gerotas Fascia. Answer: a fibrous capsule that encircles the kidney to
aid in keeping the kidney in the correct anatomical position and to
cushion it from injury
kidneys live retroperitoneal with the ureters
⩥ nephroblastomas. Answer: Wilm's tumor(commonly found in
children)
cause obstruction of the vena cava, hepatic veins or renal veins
⩥ open gallbladder
laparoscopic. Answer: dissected anti-grade
dissected retrograde
⩥ duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Answer: make up small intestines
,⩥ duodenum. Answer: first of small intestines where all food digestion
is complete; associated with Brunner's gland; connects the pylori of the
stomach to the jejunum
⩥ jejunum. Answer: absorption of digested foods, vitamins,&
electrolytes; thick wall with larger lumen in diameter and more
vascularity compared to ileum; color; deep red
⩥ ileum. Answer: final portion of small intestines,connects to the cecum;
absorbs nutrients the jejunum doesn't ; Meckel's Diverticulum found
here color;pale pink Peyer's patches
⩥ Superior Mesenteric Artery
SMA. Answer: blood supply to the distal pancreas,duodenum, cecum,
and the ascending and right transverse colon;
what are some medical conditions that may mimic anorexia?
What is the most common vessel blocked with intestinal ischemia?
The inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery branches off which artery?
⩥ Inferior Mesenteric Artery
IMA. Answer: oirgin: abdominal aorta; Supplies the left half of the
transverse colon, the descending/iliac/and sigmoid colon, and part of the
rectum; often sacrificed during AAA REPAIR, COLONIC ISHEMIA
CAN OCCUR
, ⩥ 5 MAJOR ARTERIES THAT SUPPLY THE LARGE INTESTINES.
Answer: Iliocolic artery, right colic artery, middle colic artery, left colic
artery, and the superior rectal artery
⩥ layers of the stomach and intestines. Answer: serosa, mucosa, and
submucosa
⩥ large intestines. Answer: cecum, ascending colon, transverse colon,
descending colon, sigmoid, and rectum; water absorption back into the
bloodstream, and eliminates food wastes ;
⩥ ileocecal valve. Answer: regulates discharge of small intestinal
contents into large intestines; permits movement of fecal matter and gas
in either direction which helps prevent obstructions
⩥ cecum. Answer: widest and smallest part of the colon; first part of the
large intestines; appendix is attached ;where the distal ilium enters and
forms the ileocecal valve; intraperitoneal covered by mesocecum
⩥ appendix. Answer: mass of lymphatic tissue that helps contribute to
immunity; connects to the cecum;possible cause of appendictis in adults-
fecal matter blocking the lumen; appendisitis in youth- hyperplasia of
lyphatic follicles in appendix occludes the lumen
