Study Notes
Gastrointestinal Anatomy and Physiology
- The ampulla of Vater is responsible for transporting bile and pancreatic juices into the duodenum.
Gastrointestinal Pathology
- Hydrops refers to the distension of the gallbladder due to obstruction of the cystic duct.
Sphincters and Muscles
- The sphincter of Oddi regulates the flow of bile and pancreatic juices into the duodenum.
- Circular muscle fibers surround the end parts of the common bile duct and main pancreatic duct.
Hepatobiliary System
- The common hepatic duct transports bile from the liver and gallbladder into the cystic duct.
- The gallbladder acts as a reservoir, storing and concentrating bile produced by the liver.
Blood Supply and Nerve Stimulation
- The cystic artery supplies the arterial blood to the gallbladder.
- Cholecystokinin (CCK) stimulates the liver to produce more bile and activates intestinal and pancreatic enzymes.
Pathological Conditions
- Adenomyomatosis presents as cholesterol polyps, a variant of which is characterized by hyperplastic changes in the gallbladder wall.
- Murphy's sign is a positive sign implying exquisite tenderness over the area of the gallbladder upon palpation.
- Klatskin tumor is a type of cancer that occurs at the bifurcation of the hepatic ducts, causing asymmetrical obstruction of the biliary tree.
- Jaundice is characterized by excessive bilirubin accumulation, causing yellow pigmentation of the skin.
- Gallbladder polyps are small, polypoid projections from the gallbladder wall.
