The stomach is a muscular sac in the upper left portion of the abdomen that plays a critical role in digestion. The stomach develops from the foregut and connects the esophagus with the duodenum. Structurally, the stomach is C-shaped and forms a greater and lesser curvature and is divided grossly into regions: the cardia, fundus, body, and pylorus. On a microscopic level, the stomach wall has several layers, including a mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa. The stomach is filled with glands that secrete a variety of substances involved in the digestive process. The arterial supply to the stomach is primarily from vessels originating from the celiac trunk.
