GI anatomy Lecture: 5 د. عصام طارق Objectives: To describe anatomy of stomach, duodenum & pancreas. To list their main relations. To define their blood & nerve supply. To list their lymph drainage. To relate to some clinical conditions like peptic ulcer.
The stomach is an Elongated, distensible muscular sac Epigastrium Left Hypochondrium Although it undergoes considerable variation Volume of its content Position of the body Phase of respiration J- shaped Umbilical Region
Cardiac Notch Fundus To The Greater Curvature Angular Notch Body To The Greater Curvature
The stomach possesses: 1- Two orifices (cardiac & pyloric) 2- Two borders (greater & lesser curvatures) 3- And two surfaces (anterior & posterior)
Median Plane Cardiac Sphincter Cardiac end of stomach 1 inch

Gastric ulcer: Occur on or close to lesser curvature of stomach. Invades muscular coat & with time invades peritoneum. Ulcer on posterior wall may perforate into lesser sac resulting in diffused peritonitis & air under diaphragm It may become adherent to pancreas resulting in referred backache. A perforated anterior ulcer may result in diffused peritonitis due to leakage of gastric content into greater sac. Sensation of pain is caused by stretching of smooth muscle fibers in stomach wall & it is felt in epigastrium. Air under diaphragm is visualized in erect plane abdominal radiography.
Summary: The stomach has two: orifices, curvatures & surfaces. Duodenum lies retroperitoneally close to the midline between transpyloric & subcostal planes & divided into four parts. Pancreas lies retroperitoneally & extends from the midline to the spleen crossing the transpyloric plane.
