MORPHOLOGY AND VARIANTS OF THE STOMACH SHAPE IN HUMANS IN NORMAL AND PATHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS
Abstract
The human stomach is a dynamic, J-shaped organ with high anatomical variability depending on age, sex, body constitution, and pathological conditions. Understanding its morphological variants is of great importance in anatomy, radiology, surgery, and gastroenterology [1, 2]. Variations in stomach shape can affect digestion, lead to diagnostic errors, and influence clinical outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal disorders [3].
