生理學(xué)報告 走近闌尾

1、生理學(xué)報告 走近闌尾外科醫(yī)生躺在一張臨時搭出來的竹床上，他的妻子坐在旁邊的藤椅里，他們的兩個孩子，我哥哥和我，并肩坐在一條長凳上，聽我們的父親在說每個人肚子里都有的那一條闌尾，他說他每天最少也要割掉二十來條闌尾，最快的一次他只用了十五分鐘，十五分鐘就完成了一次闌尾手術(shù)，將病人的闌尾唰地一下割掉了。我們問，割掉以后怎么辦呢？ “割掉以后？”我父親揮揮手說，“割掉以后就扔掉?！?“為什么扔掉呢？” 我父親說：“闌尾一點屁用都沒有。”我父親看了我一會，說：“你說得也對，你們說得都對，肺，胃，心臟，還有十二指腸，結(jié)腸，大腸，直腸什么的都有用，就是這闌尾，這盲腸末端上的闌尾你們知道闌尾有什么用？” 我哥

The cecum is a pouchlike structure（囊袋狀結(jié)構(gòu)） of the colon（結(jié)腸）, located at the junctio

Its position within the abdomen corresponds to a point on the surface known as McBurneys point（麥氏點）.umb

Therefore, the notion that the app

This pr
