A free communication between the portal and systemic venous systems is established through the hemorrhoidal plexus. Parts It consists of two parts, an internal in the submucosa, and an external outside the muscular coat. Internal plexus The internal plexus presents a series of dilated pouches which are arranged in a circle around the tube, immediately above the anal orifice, and are connected by transverse branches. This internal plexus is also known in some medical communities as the Irving plexus. External plexus The lower part of the external plexus is drained by the inferior rectal veins into the internal pudendal vein The middle part of the external plexus is drained by the middle rectal vein which joins the internal iliac vein . The upper part of the external plexus is drained by the superior rectal vein which forms the commencement of the inferior mesenteric vein , a tributary of the portal vein .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Barostat Balloon rectal.jpg thumb 250px right Rectal barostat balloon, partially inflated A barostat is a device used to maintain constant pressure in a closed chamber. Their main principle is providing constant pressure s in a balloon by means of a pneumatics pneumatic pump . Barostats are frequently used in neurogastroenterology research, where they are used for measuring gastrointestinal tract gut wall tension mechanics tension or sensory thresholds in the gut. A specially designed instrument is needed in neurogastroenterology research since the gut wall has an outstanding capacity to expand and contraction contract spontaneously and by reflex . When this occurs, a balloon placed anywhere in the gut has to be inflated or deflated very rapidly in order to maintain a constant pressure in this balloon. Barostat balloon systems have been used anywhere in the gut, including the esophagus , stomach , small bowel , colon anatomy colon , and the rectum rectum ampulla . Computer driven barostats have widely been used to assess sensation and pain thresholds in the gut. Assessment of pain thresholds in the ampulla recti has been proposed as medical diagnosis diagnostic measure in irritable bowel syndrome . A typical method for measuring thresholds is the single random staircase or tracking procedure . This is a blend of two paradigm experimental paradigms widely used in psychophysics psychophysical research ascending stimuli prone to perception bias and random stimuli. The latter is regarded unethically since pain thresholds vary over a wide range in the gut, and therefore stimuli with random intensity can hurt very much. In a tracking procedure, ascending stimuli are used until the threshold is reached. Then the tracking phase begins. If the subject rates a stimulus to be above the threshold, the next stimulus will be chosen in a random process to be a stair higher than the last one or of the same intensity. If, however, the subject rates ... more details
