The anterior gastric branches of anterior vagal trunk are branches of the anterior vagal trunk which supply the stomach. [1]One long branch of it runs from the lesser curvature or parallel to it in lesser omentum as far as the pyloric antrum to fan out into branches in a way like the digits of a crow's foot to supply the pyloric antrum and the anterior wall of pyloric canal.
Lesser curvature 6. Cardia 9. Pyloric sphincter 10. Pyloric antrum 11. Pyloric canal 12. Angular incisure 13. Gastric canal 14. Rugal folds. The pylorus is the furthest part of the stomach that connects to the duodenum. It is divided into two parts, the antrum, which connects to the body of the stomach, and the pyloric canal, which connects to ...
The lesser curvature of the stomach forms the upper right or medial border of the stomach. [3] The lesser curvature of the stomach travels between the cardiac and pyloric orifices . It descends as a continuation of the right margin of the esophagus in front of the fibers of the right crus of the diaphragm , and then, turning to the right, it ...
The incision follows at an angle of 45 degrees to the lesser curvature. [9] The staple line can, but need not, be oversewn. [9] After removal of the distal portion (including the antrum and the pylorus) of the stomach, a clamp is fitted at right angles to the greater curvature. [9]
The lesser omentum (small omentum or gastrohepatic omentum) is the double layer of peritoneum that extends from the liver to the lesser curvature of the stomach, and to the first part of the duodenum. The lesser omentum is usually divided into these two connecting parts: the hepatogastric ligament, and the hepatoduodenal ligament. [1]
The submental space is a fascial space of the head and neck (sometimes also termed fascial spaces or tissue spaces). It is a potential space located between the mylohyoid muscle superiorly, the platysma muscle inferiorly, [1] under the chin in the midline.
Antrum follicularum, the cavity in the epithelium that envelops the oocyte; Mastoid antrum, a cavity between the middle ear and temporal bone in the skull; Stomach antrum, either Pyloric antrum, the lower portion of the stomach. This is what is usually referred to as "antrum" in stomach-related topics [citation needed]
Greater and lesser omentum. The greater omentum is the larger of the two peritoneal folds. It consists of a double sheet of peritoneum, folded on itself so that it has four layers. [2] The two layers of the greater omentum descend from the greater curvature of the stomach and the beginning of the duodenum. [2]
