The organs that compose the digestive system digest, absorb and process nutrients taken in as food.
Materials not absorbed into the lining of the intestine form the feces and leave the body through the anus.
Our study of the digestive system begins at the point where food leaves the mouth and enters the esophagus.

wider diameter than the small intestine and it is shorter.
Its main function is to absorb water from the materials that remain after digestion and eject them from the body as feces during defecation.
The large intestine is made up of the cecum, appendix, colon, rectum and anus.

Gallstones Gallstones (Cholelithiasis)(Cholelithiasis)
Miss B, a 35-year-old, presented to her general practitioner complaining of pain emanating from the epigastric and right hypochondrial regions radiating to the back.
The pain lasted for about 3 hours following each meal and was accompanied by nausea and occasional vomiting.
Her GP's initial diagnosis was biliary colic, and he prescribed an analgesic drug.
The pain did not resolve and she was admitted to the gastroenterology unit.
Initial ultrasound investigations revealed multiple stones in the gall bladder and a dilated common bile duct.

A date was set for early elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Due to her excessive weight, laparoscopy was deemed inappropriate by the surgeon and she was advised of an alternative procedure.
An open cholecystectomy was performed and the inflamed gall bladder found to contain three gallstones each approximately 1.5cm in diameter.
A bile sample was sent for culture and sensitivity testing and a nasogastric tube passed.
