1 Organ Systems Case Studies

2 Case Study 1

3 Gallstones *Can vary in size from 1 mm to 4 or 5 cm!

4 The digestive system Functions: Processes and digests food
Absorbs and conserves water 3. Absorbs nutrients 4. Stores energy

5 Digestive system Organs
Oral cavity Pharynx Esophagus Stomach Small intestine Large intestine Liver Gallbladder Pancreas Liver Oral cavity Esophagus Large intestine Stomach Small Rectum Anus

6 Case Study 2

7 asthma

8 Respiratory system Functions:
Delivers air to the alveoli where oxygen exchange occurs Removes carbon dioxide from the bloodstream

9 Respiratory System organs
Nasal cavity Nasal cavity Pharynx Larynx Trachea Bronchi Lungs Pharynx Bronchus Larynx Trachea Lung

10 Case Study 3

11 vitiligo

12 Integumentary system Functions: Protects underlying tissues
Regulates body temp Houses sensory receptors Synthesizes certain products (ex: sweat, oils)

13 Integumentary system components
Skin Hair Nails Sweat Glands Sebaceous Glands Hair Skin Nails

14 Case Study 4

15 Multiple sclerosis

16 The nervous system Function:
Communication via nerve impulses to and from muscles and glands for short periods of time.

17 Nervous System Organs Brain Spinal Cord Nerves Sensory Organs Brain

18 Case Study 5

19 hyperthyroidism

20 Endocrine system Function:
Secretes hormones to affect metabolism of target cells for long periods of time.

21 Endocrine System Organs
Hypothalamus Pituitary gland Thyroid gland Parathyroid gland Adrenal gland Pineal gland Thymus Pancreas Ovaries Testes Pineal gland Pituitary gland Thyroid gland Thymus Adrenal gland Pancreas Testis Ovary

22 Case Study 6

23 rickets

24 Skeletal system Functions: Provides framework Protects
Provides attachments for muscles Produces blood cells Store inorganic salts (calcium)

25 Skeletal System components
Bones Cartilage Ligaments Bones Joint

26 Muscular dystrophy

27 Muscular system Functions: Organs: Maintains posture
Provides body with heat Works together by alternating contracting and relaxing for movement Organs: Muscles Skeletal muscles

28 Case Study 7

29 stroke

30 Cardiovascular system
Functions: Heart pumps blood through vessels Blood transports gases, nutrients, wastes, hormones

31 Cardiovascular System organs
Heart Blood vessels Heart Vessels Arteries Veins Blood

32 Case Study 8

33 Urinary tract infection

34 Urinary system Functions: Filters the blood
Controls water balance by regulating volume of urine Regulates blood ion concentrations and pH

35 Urinary system organs Kidneys Ureters Urinary bladder Urethra Kidney

36 Case Study 9

37 Endometriosis

38 Reproductive system Functions:
Male: produces male sex cells and hormones Female: produces female sex cells and hormones, supports embryo development, provides milk for newborn.

39 Reproductive system organs
Male Organs: Testes Epididymis Vas deferens Seminal vesicles Prostate gland Penis Scrotum Female Organs: Ovaries Uterine tubes Uterus Vagina Labia Mammary glands Reproductive system organs

40 Case Study 10

41 lymphoma

42 Lymphatic system Functions:
Defends body against infection with lymphocytes Transports tissue fluid back to blood stream Carries fatty substances from digestive system to blood stream

43 Lymphatic System organs
Lymphatic vessels Lymph nodes Thymus Spleen Red bone marrow Thymus Lymphatic vessels Spleen Lymph nodes
