Gallbladder01:17

Gallbladder

2.5K
The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ that plays a crucial role in our digestive system. Measuring about 10 cm in length, it is comparable in size to a kiwi fruit and is located in a hollow area on the lower surface of the liver. The gallbladder's primary function is to store and concentrate bile, a fluid produced by the liver that aids in digestion.
The gallbladder's anatomy consists of three regions: the fundus, body, and neck. Extending from the neck, the cystic duct joins...

Chronic Bowel Disorders: Introduction

823
Chronic bowel diseases are a group of long-term conditions affecting the digestive tract, characterized by inflammation and damage to the gut lining. These conditions primarily include irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The distinctive feature is recurrent abdominal pain associated with altered bowel movements, manifesting as constipation, diarrhea, or fluctuating between both. The...

Diseases of the Liver and Gallbladder

2.1K
Liver and gallbladder diseases are a significant health concern, with prominent conditions including cirrhosis, hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and gallstones. Jaundice is a common manifestation of liver and biliary disease.
Cirrhosis is characterized by the scarring of hepatic lobules in the liver, which are replaced by fibrous tissue, affecting the liver's normal functioning. NAFLD, on the other hand, is caused by an excessive build-up of fat in the liver, not...

Bile01:19

Bile

4.7K
Bile is a crucial bodily fluid, characterized by its yellow-green color and alkaline nature. Produced in the liver, it is transported through the common hepatic duct into either the cystic duct, leading to the gallbladder, or directly into the common bile duct. The flow of bile is regulated by the sphincter of Oddi located at the entrance of the duodenum. When this sphincter is closed, bile is redirected to the gallbladder for storage and concentration.
Bile is released when dietary fats enter...

Liver Histology01:27

Liver Histology

4.6K
The microscopic anatomy of the liver is a complex and intricate system that comprises numerous structural units known as liver lobules, each of which is comparable in size to a sesame seed. These hexagonal structures consist of plates of liver cells or hepatocytes, which are characterized by their versatility and abundance of cellular apparatus like rough and smooth ER, Golgi apparatus, peroxisomes, and mitochondria.
Hepatocytes perform a variety of essential functions. They secrete...

    Summary

    Complete surgical removal of choledochal cysts is vital due to cancer risk. However, intrahepatic cysts present surgical challenges, sometimes necessitating limited procedures.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatobiliary Surgery
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Pediatric Surgery

    Context:

    • Choledochal cysts carry a significant risk of malignant transformation.
    • Extrahepatic choledochal cysts are generally amenable to complete surgical excision.
    • Intrahepatic choledochal cysts pose unique surgical complexities.

    Purpose:

    • To highlight the surgical difficulties encountered in radical excision of intrahepatic choledochal cysts.
    • To present clinical experience with 5 cases of intrahepatic choledochal cysts.
    • To discuss current pathogenetic theories and classifications of choledochal cysts.

    Summary:

    • Radical excision of intrahepatic choledochal cysts is often challenging and not always achievable.
    • Anatomical involvement of both liver lobes or patient's general condition can limit surgical options.
