MindMap Gallery GIT
Mainly related to the digestive system. Including the connection between the esophagus and stomach, such as perforation, bleeding, stenosis, and their differences. Simultaneously covering organs such as the stomach, gallbladder, liver, and pancreas, research on these organs helps to understand human digestive physiology and related diseases, providing important references for medical diagnosis and treatment.

Esophagus
Corrosive injury
Bleach
Suicidal or child taking it leading to electrolyte disturbance anatmical degree issues and symptoms
The symptoms are odynophagia drippling if mild or vomit , hematemisis , shock ,stridor
Degrees are 1st:- heal ,2nd:-stricture , 3rd:- perforation
INV
LAB:- electrolytes , inflammatory markers ,
Imaging:- CT
Endoscope which is great in induce perforation and assess mucosal injury but inable to predect intramural one
Aim:- electrolytes and anatomical issues
Treatment
1st line:- resusitation , medication , nutrition oral in 1st , TPN NGT of 2nd ,jeujenotomy if 3rd
Definative in 1st follow up in 2nd dilataion 2-4 w then repeat every 1-2 w for 3-4 seasons failed =stent failed = Esophagectomy which is 3rd
Relif Anatomical issues and Tanna compensate with eating
Achalasia
NM
An event leading to degeneration of [auerbach's plexus] like AI leading to weak peristalsis and failure of LES relaxation
which lead to painless dysphagia specially with water than food
