Term

Bare Area of Liver

1) location and what it is.

Definition

1) immediately adjacent to diaphragm.

not covered by visceral peritoneam.

 

Term

Hepatorenal recess

1) where and what?

Definition

1)  Recess of peritoneal cavity btwn liver & kidney.

1)  Fluids can accumulate in lumber curve of vertebral colun, most posterior part of cavity while supine.

 

Term

1) Rectovesical pouch:

*what is vesicular?

2) Rectouturerine pouch

 

Definition

1) *vesicular= bladder. 

In males btwn rectum and urinary bladder.

 

2) In females between rectum and uterus.

 

 

fluid may collect while lying down

Term

Liver:

1) attached to.....via....

2) Superior border (R,L) of neutral position.  Orientation?

3) R lobe, sup border, on expiration

4) R lobe, sup border, on inspiration

5) Protection

Definition

1) resp diaphragm via serous membrane

2) (at anterior mcl)R= 5th ICS; L= 6th ICS.  OBLIQUE

3) 4th ICS

4) Inferior to costal margin.

5) Not completely protected by ribs

Term

Liver:

1) Location

2) Falciform Ligament

3) Relationship of size of lobes

4) Smooth outer membrane

5) Vital?

6) gallbladder (*stores bile) location

7) Round ligament

 

Definition

1) intraperitoneal, except for bare area

2) boundary btwn L/R lobes

3) R>L

4) Viceral peritoneum

5) yes

6) protrudes inferiorly from R lobe of liver.  IN URQ.

7) non functional, remnant of embryologic umbilical vein, attached to anterior wall of abdom cavity

Term

IVC and liver:

 

1) IVC is physiclly attached to...

2) path to heart from here.

3) What drains into IVC (in relation to liver)?

Definition

1) most superior of liver. 

2) passes up through resp diaphragm at T8, then immediately enters RA of heart.

3) Veins of the liver

 

Term

Portal Triad

1) point of entry of liver

2) contents

Definition

1) porta hepatis

2) hepatic portal vein, hepatic a., bile passages associated with papilliary system

Term

Visceral surface of liver:

**Pattern shape?

1) Structures more R and in line w/ each other

2) Structes more medial 2

3) structure btwn #1 & #2

4) Gastric area.  Approximates...

5) colic area.  which flexure here?

6) R kidney recess: name and location

Definition

**H pattern

1) IVC (sup) & gallbladder (inf)

2) caudate lobe (sup) & quadrate lobe (inf)

3) porta hepatis

4) Sup L lobe, approximates lesser curve of stomach which may extend over.

5) inferior portion.  Flexure of ascedning and transverse colons

6) superior portion on R.  Hepatorenal recess.

Term
R colic flexure or hepatic flexure
Definition
Juncture of ascending and transverse colon.  At colic area (inf portion) of liver.
Term

Duct system of Liver/Pancreas/Gallbladder:

1) R & L hepatic ducts form...

2) Common hepatic duct drains...

3) cystic duct: function of origin organ.

4) Common Bile duct formed by...

5) pancreatic duct joins...enters....

6) bile flows...

 

Definition

1)from liver.  Join to form common bile duct.

2) drains entire liver of bile

3) from gall bladder ( stores bile, making it more concentrated).

4) cystic and common hepatic ducts uniting

5)common bile duct....part 2 of duodenum at hepatopancreatic ampulla

6) both ways

Term

1) Liver lobules:

2) shape

3) center feature

4) periphery structures (3):  direction of flow via...

5) sinusoid structure, function, flow.  What branch drains into sinusoid?

6) hepatocytes function

Definition

1) microscopic divisions of liver

2) hexagonal

3) central vein

4) branches of portal triad:

Hepatic a and hepatic portal vein flow INTO liver via central vein via sinusoid.

Bile duct flows OUT of liver via bile canaliculi: ¨capillaries¨of biliary system run btwn hepatocytes of bile.  Flows to periphery of lobule.

5) functional ¨capillaries¨ of liver (enlarges) with simple endolthelium for a wall, which allows movement of materials and waste across its membrane. Not true capillary.  Flow into central vein of lobule.

6) make bile, detoxification

Term

Portal triad flow in Liver lobule:

 

1) INTO LIVER

1a) branch of hepatic portal vein drains....

1b) Components of blood in sinusoid

1c) central vein leads to...

 

 

2) OUT OF LIVER

 

**3) definition of portal system

 

Definition

1) Braches of hepatic a and hepatic portal vein on periphery of lobule drain blood to central vein via sinusoids.

1a) digestive system and spleen

1b) MIXED: Venous blood from digestive tract (low O2, high CO2, + freshly digested nutrients) and

 richly oxygenated blood from hepatic a.

1c) hepatic veins

 

2) bile caniliculi are smallest vessels of bilary system.  Run btwn hepatocytes and flow to periphery of lobule.

**3) system of veins between 2 capillary beds

the h. portal vein is between cniculi and capilary of digestive

 

Term

Hepatic Portal Vein:

1) formed by what 2 veins

2) what does each drain

3) inferior mesenteric v comes from....drains into...

 

Definition

1) superior mesenteric v & splenic v.

2A) superior mesenteric drains small intestine and proximal part of large intestine

2B) splenic vein drains spleen and stomach, pancreas & inferior mesenteric vein

3) Comes from distal large bowel....drains into splenic vein....

 

 Distal lg intestine>Inferior mesenteric v>splenic v.

Small intestine & proximal lg intestine>superior mesenteric v. >hepartic portal v.

Spleen & stomach> splenic v. > hepatic portal v

Term
Inferior mesenteric vein drains into....
Definition
splenic v., not superior mesenteric.
Term

Union of inf mesenteric v with splenic v & junction of splenic v. and sup mesenteric v.

 

form....

occur on....

 

Definition

hepatic portal vein

 

posterior side of pancreas

 

Term
Caput medusae
Definition

In cirrhosis of the liver, venous flow

Anastomoses with vessels around umbilicus to get to IVC. we see vericose veiins in stoomach around umbilicus
