Hepatic portal vein

Operative Management of Portal Vein/SMV Trauma: Can We Just Ligate Case Scenario: A 21-year-old male presented to the emergency department after he was stabbed in the abdomen. On examination, his vital signs were significant for a systolic blood pressure of 70 mmHg, heart rate of 120 beats per minute, and a right upper quadrant stab wound. Given the concern for intra-abdominal bleeding, he was taken to operating room for exploratory laparotomy. The patient had a large right zone 1 retroperitoneal hematoma. The hematoma was entered after obtaining supraceliac aortic control. There was a traumatic transection of the body of pancreas and laceration of the mid-portal vein in the hepatoduodenal ligament. Portal Vein Injury The portal vein is…

with the samples of the hepatic vein, hepatic portal vein, and the mesenteric artery postprandial. The next three test tubes were measured to one centimeter with samples that were extracted from the same areas of the blood vessel system. The difference in the samples was that the second sets of samples were extracted during the fasting state. Water was then added to a beaker and it was set on top of the hot plate. After the water was boiling, Benedict's reagent was placed in to the six test…

The portal venous system is very important in that it collects blood from the spleen, the stomach, pancreas, and the small and large intestine. All the veins from the portal venous system will come together to form the portal vein which then carries substrate-rich venous blood to the liver. The blood in the liver will then be drained by the hepatic veins. Portal hypertension is associated with chronic liver diseases and is a result of an increase in blood pressure in the portal vein. There is a…

Edified, you will become a force to reckon with and hopefully succeed where I had failed. There is another thing that you should know. Many years ago, I was working on a clandestine project with a certain researcher in my employ. This man designed a way to teleport from one place to another without having been there before. I’m certain that you have learned the ability to teleport and as you already have learned, cannot teleport to a place you have never visited. This man designed special…

saving and rebuilding the world and/or oneself. Games such as Half Life 2, DOOM (2016), and Portal 2 typically show this motif to a great extent. A great example out of these three would be Half Life 2 where one plays as Gordon Freeman who wakes from hypostasis on a train that is heading toward City 17. In order to stop the Combine, an interuniversal government, Gordon must make it to Dr. Kleiner’s lab with the occasional help of Alyx Vance. Even though she assists Gordon throughout the game, it…

cells (Wein , 2016). Only during the embryonic stage does the spleen produce red blood cell, platelets and granulocytes but it produces lymphoid cells throughout its entire life. Few lymphocytes, mostly T-cells, comprise the majority of the cells in the spleen (Krause, 2008). Oxygenated blood brought in by the pulmonary veins from the lungs, leaves the heart from the left ventricle through the aortic semilunar valve, passes through the ascending aorta, aortic arch to the descending aorta,…

email address on file. In order to do this, I needed to write an introduction and brief explanation of my survey for the company to use within the email that they would generate. This was not an issue whatsoever. However, the company then informed me that when sending the mass email, the clients would have to remember their own username and password and log into the pet portal themselves. I was not too sure about this idea. I felt that more clients would ignore the survey knowing that they had…

Introduction Upper gastrointestinal bleeding can be manifested with hematemesis, melena or hematochezia. Acute bleeding due to gastroesophageal varices in cirrhotic patients is associated with higher morbidity, mortality rates as well as development of life-threatening complications. This bleeding significantly increase protein concentration in the bowel which results in increased ammonia production by colonic bacteria and precipitation of development of hepatic encephalopathy [1].…

Beat of Another Drum Mr. Rembert is a 65- year old African American male that was transported by ambulance to this Las Vegas, Nevada long term acute care facility. The patient has a substantial history of cardiopulmonary difficulties with a chronic cough and has been diagnosed with COPD (a grouping of both chronic bronchitis and emphysema); Emphysema is injury to the alveoli which are the tiny sacs in the lungs that permit oxygen and carbon dioxide to interchange between the blood stream. This…

There are several causes of high blood pressure (Hypertension) some of which we do not have any direct control over, and yet we can still modify the effects of these factors by ensuring that we pay attention to the things that we do have some control, over. I will discuss both kinds on this page so that by the end you know exactly the kind of things you can easily change to reduce the risks associated with high blood pressure, and you know the things that you cannot change so easily and yet can…
