1. Anatomy and Physiology of the Stomach
Normal Stomach
• Saccular structure with a volume of 1200-1500 ml.
• Divided into five anatomic regions: cardia, fundus, body (corpus), antrum, and pylorus.
• Gastric wall layers: mucosa, submucosa, muscularis propria, and serosa.
• Several glandular cells in mucosa:
• mucus secreting cells
• parietal cells (acid secreting cells)
• chief cells (pepsin and chymosin secreting cells)
• G cells (gastrin secreting cells)
• endocrine (enterochromaffin) cells
• The line is drawn from the incisura angularis
along the lesser curvature to an indistinct
border between the gastric body and antrum
along the greater curvature
• Major Functions of the Stomach
• Storage of ingested food
• Mechanical breakdown of ingested food
• Disruption of chemical bonds in food material by acid and enzymes
• Production of intrinsic factor, a glycoprotein required for absorption of
vitamin B12
in small intestine
2. Vascular Supply and Drainage; Lymphatic Drainage
3. Gastric Innervation

5. Microscopic Anatomy
Fundus
6. Congenital Anomalies of the Stomach
Diaphragmatic Hernia Non-Axial Hernia
• Diaphragmatic hernia:
Herniation of abdominal contents into the thoracic cavity due to weakness or absence of diaphragmatic tissue
Pyloric Stenosis
Pyloric stenosis
• Concentric enlargement of the pyloric
sphincter
• Seen early in life in infants
• Affects boys 3-4 times more often than
girls
• Multifactorial pattern of inheritance;
familial occurrence has been described
and may be seen in association with
other developmental abnormalities
Pyloric Stenosis
Thick Wall
Pyloric Stenosis
Thickened wall at level of pyloris

• Early satiety
• Prolonged epigastric fullness
• Nonspecific epigastric discomfort
• Nausea, and vomiting
• Regurgitation
• Rumination
• Abdominal pain (abdominal discomfort)
• Bloating and nausea
2. Physical Examination
• Normal
• Signs of volume depletion, weight loss, and poor nutrition
• Inspection of dentition may show erosion of enamel associated with chronic GERD or bulimia
• Abdominal examination may detect masses, organomegaly, and areas of tenderness. Abdominal
distention and succession splash may be present
• Auscultation over the epigastrium may detect bruits that indicate stenoses of the celiac or
superior mesenteric arteries.
• Tenderness that is well localized at healed incisions and persists when the anterior abdominal
muscles are contracted (Carnett’s sign) suggests an abdominal wall syndrome
• Neurologic examination may reveal nystagmus, facial weakness, ataxia, or other abnormalities
