Projection onto the trunk

Stomach: Projection onto the trunk

The gastric fundus/corpus is projected on the trunk between the 6th and 10th rib, on the area between linea mediana anterior and linea medioclavicularis. The path between the symphysis upper edge and the upper edge of the manubrium sterni plays an important role in clinical investigations. The pyloric part is located in this area (pylorus). The pyloric part is rather immovable from the rest of the stomach because he is connected to the duodenum located in the Retroperitoneum.
