Chapters

  1. Module 1 — Embryology and Congenital Anatomy
    new york chill lo-fi · 5:08
    Tracing the stomach's origins from a simple embryonic tube to its final rotated position, this module breaks down the key developmental milestones — including foregut formation, mesogastrium differentiation, and the 90-degree clockwise rotation — that shape the stomach's anatomy before birth.
  2. Module 2 — Gross Anatomy and Peritoneal Relations
    vancouver lo-fi chill rainly jazz · 4:34
    A lo-fi jazz journey through the stomach's gross anatomy, tracing its key regions from the cardia and fundus to the pylorus while mapping out the peritoneal relationships, ligamentous attachments, and fascial structures that anchor it in place.
  3. Module 3 — Vascular Anatomy, Lymphatics, and Variants
    baroque, piano, seattle lo-fi rainy chill · 4:32
    A deep dive into the stomach's arterial supply, venous drainage, and lymphatic pathways, tracing the celiac trunk's branches and their anastomoses along the greater and lesser curvatures. Listeners will gain a clear mental map of gastric vasculature and its clinically important anatomical variants.
  4. Module 4 — Innervation
    new york chill lo-fi · 4:27
    Dive into the complex neural wiring of the stomach as parasympathetic and sympathetic pathways are mapped out, revealing how the vagus nerve, the nerve of Latarjet, and the iconic crow's foot formation control acid secretion, gastric motility, and the surgical logic behind selective vagotomy.
  5. Module 5 — Histology and Physiology
    new york chill lo-fi · 4:22
    Dive deep into the cellular architecture and secretory functions of the stomach, from acid-pumping parietal cells to gastrin-releasing G cells, and discover how each specialized cell type works in harmony to drive digestion.
  6. Module 6 — Anatomy of Adjacent and At-Risk Organs
    vancouver lo-fi chill rainly jazz · 4:26
    A mellow deep-dive into the critical structures surrounding the stomach, this module maps the diaphragmatic hiatus, vagal trunks, thoracic duct, and phrenic vessels so you can navigate the upper abdomen with confidence and avoid catastrophic surgical missteps.
  7. Module 7 — Imaging, Endoscopic, and Laparoscopic Anatomy
    romantic debussy, chill lo-fi vancouver rap · 3:28
    A deep dive into how the stomach appears across imaging modalities and minimally invasive scopes, teaching listeners to identify key vascular anatomy, wall layers, and structural variants before ever making an incision.
  8. Module 8 — Benign and Inflammatory Pathology
    vancouver lo-fi chill rainly jazz · 4:30
    A deep dive into the most common culprits behind stomach disease, from Helicobacter pylori's clever survival tactics and how to detect it, to the gut-damaging effects of NSAIDs and the treatment strategies deployed when first-line therapies fall short.
  9. Module 9 — Neoplastic Pathology
    classical, piano, uk grime rap · 3:35
    A deep dive into the world of gastric tumors, covering the classification, characteristics, and clinical significance of benign and malignant neoplasms of the stomach, from polyps to adenocarcinoma and beyond.
  10. Module 10 — Operative Techniques, Reconstruction, and Post-Gastrectomy States
    classical, piano, uk grime rap · 3:17
    A deep dive into the surgical methods used to treat stomach conditions, this module walks through operative approaches, reconstructive strategies, and the physiological and clinical changes patients experience following gastrectomy.
  11. Module 11 — Perioperative Care, Guidelines, and Evidence
    classical, piano, uk grime rap · 3:44
    A deep dive into the critical principles of perioperative care as they apply to gastric surgery, this module walks through established clinical guidelines and the evidence-based practices that guide surgeons and care teams before, during, and after stomach-related procedures.
  12. Module 12 — Skills, Simulation, and Milestone Progression
    vancouver lo-fi chill rainly jazz · 4:34
    A dynamic journey through the hands-on competencies and practical benchmarks essential to mastering gastric anatomy and physiology, this module guides learners through skill-building exercises, simulated clinical scenarios, and the key milestones that mark progression toward confident, real-world application.
  13. Core References
    romantic debussy, chill lo-fi vancouver rap · 4:10
    A deep dive into the foundational texts and resources that underpin the study of stomach anatomy, physiology, and pathology, equipping listeners with the key references needed to further explore and expand their understanding of the subject.
