Pancreatojejunal

Pancreatojejunal (pancreatojoenalus) is a term used in medicine to describe the junction of the pancreas and jejunum. Pancreato is a Greek word that means “pancreas,” and jejunalis is a Latin word that means “jejunum.”

Pancreatoduodenal (pancreasduodenalis) is a junction of the pancreas and duodenum. This term is used in medical literature to describe human anatomy.

Due to the fact that the pancreas is one of the main organs of the digestive system, its connection with the jejunum is of great importance for the functioning of the body. The pancreatojejunal canal ensures the flow of pancreatic enzymes into the intestines, where they participate in the breakdown of food and ensure its absorption by the body. In addition, this channel plays an important role in regulating blood sugar levels, as the pancreas produces insulin, which helps cells absorb glucose.



The pancreatojejunogastric orifice is a tubular canal that connects the pancreas, or “secretor,” and the jejunum (ileum). This term also refers to anatomical features in which there is one or more anatomical channels between these organs. The main processes of food digestion, including the absorption of fats, take place in the jejunum, and the pancreas produces secretions containing enzymes that break down these fats, so for the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract it is important that these organs are connected.
