Study Notes
Embryonic Development of the GI Tract
- Embryonic folding transforms a flat disk into a cylindrical structure, essential for gut formation.
- The intraembryonic coelom forms isolated spaces in the lateral and cardiogenic mesoderm, leading to the division into somatic and splanchnic layers.
- The splanchnopleure, comprising splanchnic mesoderm and endoderm, forms the embryonic gut.
- The diaphragm develops from fusion of pleuroperitoneal membranes, muscular components from somites (C3-C5), and the esophageal mesentery.
Anatomy of the Gastrointestinal Tract
- Components include the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.
- The duodenum arises from the foregut and midgut, forming a C-shaped loop and becoming retroperitoneal after stomach rotation.
- Blood supply to the GI tract is primarily through the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric arteries based on embryonic origins.
Congenital Disorders
- Congenital diaphragmatic hernia occurs in 1 in 2,000 births due to muscle cells failing to populate the pleuroperitoneal membranes.
- Pyloric stenosis involves hypertrophy of the pylorus, leading to gastrointestinal obstruction marked by projectile vomiting.
- Duodenal atresia and stenosis arise from incomplete recanalization, with symptoms including bile-stained vomiting.
Development of Gastrointestinal Structures
- The liver bud (hepatic diverticulum) emerges from the foregut and forms the liver and biliary apparatus, connecting to the duodenum via the bile duct.
- Cecal diverticulum development leads to formation of the cecum and appendix; structural growth continues postnatally.
- Conditions such as omphalocele and gastroschisis result from abdominal wall defects, with contents either covered by amnion or exposed.
Developmental Implications
- Meckel's diverticulum occurs from persistence of the yolk stalk, which may cause symptoms resembling appendicitis.
- Umbilical hernias can arise from improper closure of the umbilical ring.
- Vitelline cysts form when the vitelline duct remains patent, creating a connection between the umbilicus and intestines.
Innervation and Blood Supply
- The esophagus is innervated by the vagus nerve for the upper two-thirds and the celiac plexus for the lower third.
- Hindgut structures, including the left third of the transverse colon and rectum, receive blood supply from the inferior mesenteric artery.
Development of the Cloaca
- The cloaca serves as a terminal part of the hindgut, dividing into the urogenital sinus and the rectum via the urorectal septum, crucial for future urinary and digestive structures.
