(Splenic Flexure is a watershed region)
Branches of the Celiac Trunk?
Common Hepatic
Splenic
Left Gastric
(these comprise main supply to stomach)
Where does the stomach have good/bad collateral circulation?
Short Gastrics (to fundus from splenic) has poor anastomoses

Strong anastomoses exist between left and right Gastroepiploics (from splenic and gastroduodenal, resp)
AND
Left and Right Gastrics (from celiac trunk and common hepatic, resp)
Who are the Collateral Circulations if the Abd Aorta gets blocked?
Internal Thoracic/Mammary <-->Superior epigastric (internal thoracic)<--->Inf epigastric (ext. ilaic)
Superior Pancreaticoduodenal (Celiac T)<-->Inf Pancreaticoduodenal (SMA)
Middle Colic (SMA)<-->Left Colic (IMA)
Sup Rectal (IMA)<-->Middle Rectal (internal iliac)
Where are the Portosystemic Anastomoses? clinical sign occuring there?
ESOPHAGUS
Left gastric v<-->esophageal v
Varices

UMBILICUS
paraumbilical v (port)<-->superficial and inf epigastric v
Caput Medusae

RECTUM
sup rectal (port) <--> mid and inf rectal
Internal Hemorrhoids
Rx for Portal HTN?
Place a Shunt between Splenic and Left Renal Vein
What forms the Pectinate Line? where is it?
Where hindgut meets ectoderm

In my butt
What goes on above the Pectinate Line? problems? arterial supply? venous drainage?
Internal Hemorrhoids
Adenocarcinoma

Sup Rectal Artery

Drains via Sup Rectal V-->IMV-->portal system
What goes on below the pectinate line? problems? arteries? veins?
External Hemorrhoids
Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Inferior Rectal Artery (from internal pudendal artery)

Inf rectal-->int pudendal--->int iliac--->IVC
Difference between int and ext hemorrhoids?
Int: visceral innervation, so not painful

Ext: somatic innervation (inf rectal nerve from pudendal nerve), so their painful:
What do the different sides of hepatocytes face?
Apical surface faces bile canaliculi
Basolateral surface faces sinusoids
Zones of the liver?

Zone 2: Intermediate Zone
Zone 3: Pericentral Vein (centrilobular)
Which zone is first affected by ischemia?
Centrilobular zone
Which zone is first affected by viral hepatitis?
Periportal zone
Which zone contains the P450 system?
Centrilobular Zone
Which zone is most sensitive to toxic injury?
Centrilobular/Pericentral vein
Which zone gets screwed by alcoholic hepatitis?
Centrilobular/Pericentral vein
What are liver sinusoids?
Irregular "capillaries" w/ fenestrated endothelium, no BM
Allow macromolecules of plasma full access to basal surface of hepatocytes through perisinusoidal space
Oddi vs Vater?
Oddi is the sphincter
Vater is the lumen of the duct
