The cross sectional imaging studies References had revealed an irregularly dilated main pancreatic duct. The examination of the major duodenal papilla 1. Silvis SE, Vennes JA, Dreyer M. Variation in the normal duodenal papilla. Gastrointest Endosc 1983; 29:132-133 [PMID; revealed the presence of two separate orifices at 6852473] endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) (Image). The cranial orifice was located at 11- 12 clock position whereas the caudal orifice was located at 4-5 clock position. The caudal orifice was selectively cannulated and the injection of the contrast revealed presence of an irregularly dilated main pancreatic duct. The cannula and the guide wire introduced through the caudal orifice selectively entered the pancreatic duct and did not come out through the cranial orifice. During ERCP, bile could be seen coming out of the cranial orifice, confirming it to be the orifice of common bile duct. Following selective cannulation of the main pancreatic duct, a 5-Fr stent was placed into the pancreatic duct. Following this, the patient had complete pain relief and is planned for further sessions of pancreatic endotherapy along with pancreatic sphincterotomy. -
Fact Sheet - Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer
Fact Sheet - Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer Diagnosis Pancreatic cancer is often difficult to diagnose, because the pancreas lies deep in the abdomen, behind the stomach, so tumors are not felt during a physical exam. Pancreatic cancer is often called the “silent” cancer because the tumor can grow for many years before it causes pressure, pain, or other signs of illness. When symptoms do appear, they can vary depending on the size of the tumor and where it is located on the pancreas. For these reasons, the symptoms of pancreatic cancer are seldom recognized until the cancer has progressed to an advanced stage and often spread to other areas of the body. General Symptoms Pain The first symptom of pancreatic cancer is often pain, because the tumors invade nerve clusters. Pain can be felt in the stomach area and/or in the back. The pain is generally worse after eating and when lying down, and is sometimes relieved by bending forward. Pain is more common in cancers of the body and tail of the pancreas. The abdomen may also be generally tender or painful if the liver, pancreas or gall bladder are inflamed or enlarged. It is important to keep in mind that there are many other causes of abdominal and back pain! Jaundice More than half of pancreatic cancer sufferers have jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes. Jaundice is caused by a build-up bilirubin, a substance which is made in the liver and a component of bile. Bilirubin contains a lot of yellow pigment, and gives bile it’s color. -

And many people who get the disease have few or no known risk factors. Researchers have found some risk factors that make a person more likely to develop bile duct cancer. Certain diseases of the liver or bile ducts People who have chronic (long-standing) inflammation of the bile ducts have an increased risk of developing bile duct cancer. Certain conditions of the liver or bile ducts can cause this, these include: ● Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), a condition in which inflammation of the bile ducts (cholangitis) leads to the formation of scar tissue (sclerosis). People with PSC have an increased risk of bile duct cancer. -

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria. -
Anatomy of the Pig
Hands on Workshop: Lecture for Animal Workshop Anatomy of the pig Jong Man Kim1, Hae Won Lee2 Sungkyunkwan University1, Seoul National University2, Korea Introduction The digestive system of swine has anatomic differences from humans. However, the physiology of digestion remains similar to humans. In spite of the anatomic differences, the pig has been used extensively as a gastro- intestinal model. Most of the classical models involving the digestive system have been related to nutritional stud- ies to study digestion of the pig and for studying human digestive phenomenon. More recently endoscopic and laparoscopic surgical models have been developed and used extensively in the swine. The size and function of structures such as the biliary system and pancreatic duct make them amenable for studying human sized equip- ment and biomaterial implants. Surgical modifications have made the intestinal tract amenable to the study of surgical and chronic fistulation procedures. Laparoscopic surgery has replaced many open operations. The procedures described are commonly performed laparoscopically by many general surgeons but require practice. The porcine model is ideal to train surgeons in laparoscopic procedures since porcine anatomy is generally similar to humans with some minor differences. Liver 1. Morphological feature In the human, the liver morphologically consists of 4 lobes; the left, right, quadrate, and caudate lobes al- though the functional anatomy is more important than the morphological one, which is rarely used in clinical field. Unlikely to the human, the porcine liver consists of 5 lobes; the left lateral and medial, right lateral and medial, and caudate lobes. In the ventral view, 4 lobes are seen; the left lateral, left medial, right medial, and right lateral lobes in sequence from left to right. -

Brain Anatomy
BRAIN ANATOMY Adapted from Human Anatomy & Physiology by Marieb and Hoehn (9th ed.) The anatomy of the brain is often discussed in terms of either the embryonic scheme or the medical scheme. The embryonic scheme focuses on developmental pathways and names regions based on embryonic origins. The medical scheme focuses on the layout of the adult brain and names regions based on location and functionality. For this laboratory, we will consider the brain in terms of the medical scheme (Figure 1): Figure 1: General anatomy of the human brain Marieb & Hoehn (Human Anatomy and Physiology, 9th ed.) – Figure 12.2 CEREBRUM: Divided into two hemispheres, the cerebrum is the largest region of the human brain – the two hemispheres together account for ~ 85% of total brain mass. The cerebrum forms the superior part of the brain, covering and obscuring the diencephalon and brain stem similar to the way a mushroom cap covers the top of its stalk. Elevated ridges of tissue, called gyri (singular: gyrus), separated by shallow groves called sulci (singular: sulcus) mark nearly the entire surface of the cerebral hemispheres. Deeper groves, called fissures, separate large regions of the brain. Much of the cerebrum is involved in the processing of somatic sensory and motor information as well as all conscious thoughts and intellectual functions. The outer cortex of the cerebrum is composed of gray matter – billions of neuron cell bodies and unmyelinated axons arranged in six discrete layers. Although only 2 – 4 mm thick, this region accounts for ~ 40% of total brain mass. The inner region is composed of white matter – tracts of myelinated axons. -

Expression of Specific Hepatocyte and Cholangiocyte Transcription Factors
Laboratory Investigation (2008) 88, 865–872 & 2008 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0023-6837/08 $30.00 Expression of specific hepatocyte and cholangiocyte transcription factors in human liver disease and embryonic development Pallavi B Limaye, Gabriela Alarco´n, Andrew L Walls, Michael A Nalesnik, George K Michalopoulos, Anthony J Demetris and Erin R Ochoa Transcription factors are major determinants of cell-specific gene expression in all cell types. Studies in rodent liver have shown that alterations in transcription factor expression determine lineage specification during fetal liver development and signify transdifferentiation of cells of the biliary compartment into ‘oval’ cells and eventually hepatocytes in adult liver. We examined the cellular localization of hepatocyte- or BEC-associated transcription factors in human fetal and adult liver and in diseases in which transdifferentiation between hepatocytes and biliary cells may play a role. In the normal adult human liver, hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)4a and HNF6 appeared exclusively in hepatocytes; HNF1b, HNF3a, and HNF3b were observed only in BEC. During fetal development both BEC and hepatocytes expressed HNF3a, HNF3b, and HNF6. HNF1a was expressed only in fetal hepatocytes. We further examined expression of transcription factors in massive hepatic necrosis and in specific types of chronic liver disease. Hepatocyte-associated transcription factors HNF4a and HNF6 also appeared in BEC in massive hepatic necrosis and chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Similarly, HNF3b that is expressed only in BEC in normal adult liver was also observed in hepatocytes in primary biliary cirrhosis and chronic biliary obstruction. These data mimic previous findings in rodents in which hepatocyte-associated transcription factors appear in biliary cells prior to emergence of oval cells, which function as progenitor cells for hepatocytes when the regenerative capacity of the latter is compromised. -
Chronic Pancreatitis: Introduction
Chronic Pancreatitis: Introduction Authors: Anthony N. Kalloo, MD; Lynn Norwitz, BS; Charles J. Yeo, MD Chronic pancreatitis is a relatively rare disorder occurring in about 20 per 100,000 population. The disease is progressive with persistent inflammation leading to damage and/or destruction of the pancreas . Endocrine and exocrine functional impairment results from the irreversible pancreatic injury. The pancreas is located deep in the retroperitoneal space of the upper part of the abdomen (Figure 1). It is almost completely covered by the stomach and duodenum . This elongated gland (12–20 cm in the adult) has a lobe-like structure. Variation in shape and exact body location is common. In most people, the larger part of the gland's head is located to the right of the spine or directly over the spinal column and extends to the spleen . The pancreas has both exocrine and endocrine functions. In its exocrine capacity, the acinar cells produce digestive juices, which are secreted into the intestine and are essential in the breakdown and metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. In its endocrine function capacity, the pancreas also produces insulin and glucagon , which are secreted into the blood to regulate glucose levels. Figure 1. Location of the pancreas in the body. What is Chronic Pancreatitis? Chronic pancreatitis is characterized by inflammatory changes of the pancreas involving some or all of the following: fibrosis, calcification, pancreatic ductal inflammation, and pancreatic stone formation (Figure 2). Although autopsies indicate that there is a 0.5–5% incidence of pancreatitis, the true prevalence is unknown. In recent years, there have been several attempts to classify chronic pancreatitis, but these have met with difficulty for several reasons. -
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: Introduction
Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: Introduction Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic , usually progressive, stricturing disease of the biliary tree. Remissions and relapses characterize the disease course. Primary sclerosing cholangitis may remain quiescent for long periods of time in some patients; in most cases, however, it is progressive. The prevalence of primary sclerosing cholangitis in the United States is approximately 1–6 cases per 100,000 population. Most patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis are men (75%) with an average age of approximately 40 years at diagnosis. The overwhelming majority of patients affected with primary sclerosing cholangitis are Caucasian. The etiology is unknown but current opinion favors an immune cause. Management of this disease in the early stages involves the use of drugs to prevent disease progression. Endoscopic and surgical approaches are reserved for the time when symptoms develop. Liver transplantation may ultimately be required and offers the only chance for a complete cure. Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis are at an increased risk for cholangiocarcinoma (10–15%). Figure 1. Location of the biliary tree in the body. What is PSC? Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a chronic fibrosing inflammatory process that results in the obliteration of the biliary tree and biliary cirrhosis. There is variability in the extent of involvement of the biliary system. The majority of patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis have underlying inflammatory bowel disease, namely ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis are more likely to have ulcerative colitis than Crohn’s disease (85% versus 15%), with approximately 2.5–7.5% of all ulcerative colitis patients having primary sclerosing cholangitis.
