. The anatomy of the domestic animals. Veterinary anatomy. 418 DIGESTIVE SYSTEM OF THE HORSE Saccus ccecus {left extremity). Fundus gland region -Frontal Section of C, Cardiac orifice. Diverticulum duodeni Pylorus Pyloric gland region Stomach and First Part of Duodenum of Horse. Photograpli of specimen lixed in situ. tissue which connects the muscular and mucous coats; in it the vessels and nerves ramify before entering the mucosa. Tlie mucous coat (Tunica mucosa) is clearly divided into two parts. That which lines the greater part of the left sac re- sembles the oesophageal mucous mem- brane, and is termed the oesophageal part (Pars oesophagea). It is white in color, destitute of glands, and covered with a thick, squamous, stratified epi- thelium. At the cardiac orifice it pre- sents numerous folds which occlude the opening.' It terminates abruptly, form- ing an irregular, sinuous, raised edge, termed the margo plicatus (or cuticular ridge). Below and to the right of this line the mucous membrane has a totally different character, being soft and vel- vety to the touch, and covered by a mu- coid secretion. It contains the gastric glands (Glandulse gastricse), and is there- fore termed the glandular part (Pars glandularis). It is subdivided into three zones according to the tyjjes of glands which it contains, but no distinct lines of demar- ' This occlusion is usually so complete that, distention of the stomach by air or fluid forced in through the pylorus may be carried far enough to rupture the stomach without Ugating the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Sisson, Septimus, 1865-1924.
