What is Anatomy and Functions of the Duodenum about?
The small intestine, approximately 6 meters long, is divided into the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, with the duodenum being the shortest and most fixed part at 25 cm. It features a large surface area for nutrient absorption due to its length and the presence of villi and microvilli. The duodenum also contains specialized glands that secrete substances essential for digestion and is involved in various clinical conditions such as peptic ulcers and duodenal carcinoma.
