21.SAGGITAL SECTION OF KIDNEY
A sagittal section of the kidney is a view of the kidney from a side angle, dividing it into left and right halves. In this view, the following structures can be seen:
20.GANGRENOUS KIDNEY
Gangrenous kidney, also known as renal or kidney infarction, is a rare condition that occurs when blood flow to the kidney is blocked or reduced, leading to tissue death (necrosis) and potentially irreversible damage.
The most common cause of renal infarction is a blood clot, which may originate from the heart, a blood vessel in the kidney, or another part of the body. Other causes include arterial embolism, atherosclerosis, vasculitis, and trauma.
19.FOETAL SPLEEN
- Location: The fetal spleen is located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen, near the left kidney and behind the stomach.
- Size: The size of the fetal spleen can vary depending on the stage of development. At around 8 weeks, the spleen is about the size of a pea, but it grows rapidly and is approximately the size of a golf ball by 16 weeks.
- Blood supply: The fetal spleen receives its blood supply from the splenic artery, which arises from the celiac trunk.
- Structure: The fetal spleen is composed of two types of tissue: red pulp and white pulp.
18.SPLEEN
The spleen is an organ located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen, just beneath the diaphragm and behind the stomach. It is part of the lymphatic system and plays an important role in filtering the blood and fighting infections.
The spleen is a soft, spongy organ that is roughly the size of a fist in adults. It is divided into two main regions: the red pulp and the white pulp.
17.STOMACH WITH OESOPHAGUS
The esophagus is a muscular tube that connects the pharynx (throat) to the stomach. It is part of the digestive system and plays an important role in transporting food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach for digestion.
The esophagus is approximately 25 cm long and extends from the lower part of the pharynx, through the thoracic cavity, and into the abdominal cavity, where it connects to the stomach. It is divided into three main parts: the upper esophageal sphincter, the middle esophagus, and the lower esophageal sphincter.
16.MULTI LOBAR SPLEEN
Abstract
Spleen can have a wide range of anomalies including its shape, location, number, and size. Although most of these anomalies are congenital, there are also acquired types. Congenital anomalies affecting the shape of spleen are lobulations, notches, and clefts; the fusion and location anomalies of spleen are accessory spleen, splenopancreatic fusion, and wandering spleen; polysplenia can be associated with a syndrome. Splenosis and small spleen are acquired anomalies which are caused by trauma and sickle cell disease, respectively.
15. SPLEEN
The spleen is an important organ located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen, and it has several important anatomical points, including:
14. FIBROUS SPLEEN
The spleen is an organ located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen, and it plays a crucial role in filtering blood and removing old or damaged blood cells.
There are several conditions that can affect the spleen, such as splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), splenic infarction (obstruction of blood flow to the spleen), and splenic fibrosis (scarring of the spleen).
13.LARGE INTESTINE WITH EPIPLOIC APENDICES
The large intestine, also known as the colon, is a tube-like organ that forms the last part of the digestive system in humans and many other animals. It is responsible for absorbing water and electrolytes from digested food, as well as storing and eliminating waste material.
12.KIDNEY WITH URETER
The kidney with ureter is a complex organ system that plays a vital role in the urinary system. It is made up of several anatomical structures, including:
