This direction of the duodenum appears to regulate the pace at which the ingesta should pass through ; as soon as the trap is formed, the duodenum ascends towards the spine lying all the while on the colon. It is easy to see how simple. Fig. 2.—Longitudinal Section of Stomach and Pylorus. II, Opening of cardia ; b, pylorus ; c, commencement of duodenum ; d, pyloric or duodenal ' trap.' it is for a distended stomach and intestines to press upon the pyloric trap, and practically occlude it; this is the second factor in producing ruptured stomach. The Small Intestines are divided by the anatomists of the present day into two portions, the Jixed or duodenal and free or floating; they are about 70 feet in length. The duodenal portion commences from the pylorus, passes under the concave surface of the liver in a direc- tion upwards and outwards, lying on the double colon and passing in apposition with the last rib, where it may readily be found at the lower part of its upper third, just.
