MECKEL’S DIVERTICULUM-SMALL INTESTINE

  WHAT IS MECKEL’S DIVERTICULUM? Meckel’s diverticulum is a congenital anomaly representing a persistent portion of the vitellointestinal duct. It is located (if present) on the antimesenteric border of the ileum approximately 2 ft. (60 cm) from the ileocecal junction. It is about 2 in. (5 cm) in length, and it occurs in approximately 2% of individuals. It is important clinically because bleeding may occur from an ulcer in its mucous membrane. WHAT IS CROHN DISEASE ? Crohn disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that most commonly affects the ileum and involves an abundant accumulation of lymphocytes forming a granuloma (a typical feature of CD) within the submucosa that may further extend into the muscularis externa. Neutrophils infiltrate the intestinal glands and ultimately destroy them leading to ulcers. With progression of CD, the ulcers coalesce into long, serpentine ulcers (“linear ulcers”) oriented along the long axis of the bowel. A classic feature o...

WHAT IS LARYNGEAL ATRESIA?

         WHAT IS LARYNGEAL ATRESIA?                       Laryngeal  Atresia is a rare birth defect, result from recanalization of the larynx during the 10th week of development, which produce obstruction(blocking) of the upper fetal airway This disease is also known as congenital high airway obstruction syndrome. Distal to the region of atresia or stenosis , the fetal airways become dilated , and the lungs are enlarged and filled with fluid. The diaphragm is either flattened or inverted , and there is an accumulation of serous fluid in the peritoneal cavity in the intracellular spaces, causing severe edema. High Risk CHAOS syndrome is very often fatal due to fetal heart failure due to blockage of airway obstruction. In some severe cases , postpartum airway intervention (tracheostomy) may lead to survival. WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF ESOPHAGEAL ATRESIA? Esophage...

Appendicitis- appendix

 WHAT IS APPENDICTIS? Appendicitis begins with the obstruction of the appendix lumen with a fecal concretion (fecalith) and lymphoid hyperplasia followed by distention of the appendix. Clinical findings include initial pain in the umbilical or epigastric region (later pain localizes to the right lumbar region), nausea, vomiting, anorexia, tenderness to palpation, and percussion in the right lumbar region. Complications may include peritonitis due to rupture of the appendix. McBurney point is located by drawing a line from the right anterior superior iliac spine to the umbilicus. The midpoint of this line locates the root of the appendix. The appendix is suspended by the mesoap- pendix (i.e., intraperitoneal) and is generally found in the retrocecal fossa (although its position is variable). What is appendix? This is a worm-like diverticulum arising from the posteromedial wall, of the caecum, about 2 cm below the ileocaecal orifice. The appendix  is a narrow, muscular tube with...
