• Purpose: The purpose of this study is on the relation to pylor sphincter of duodenal reflux (bouncing-drawing back into the stocmach from the duodenum), which hasn't been understood well yet from the morphological point of view, and what role these elastical fibers in the form of sphincter have on this mechanism. This study was done by Anatomy Department at the Faculty of Medicine of Karadeniz Technical University. Materials and Methods: Aproximatey, 30 fresh stomachs in human cadavers obtained from different university were studied in this study. The density and lengths were compared between elastic fibers of serosa-subserosa and submucosa layers in the antrum area and the ones in pyloric sphincter of these stomachs. For these measurements, visopan type microscope, mostly used in forestry engineering, were used. Result: As a result of this study, elastic fibers in the layers of serosa-subserosa and submucosa in pylor sphincter were found to remarkably be both longer and denser than the ones in serosa-subserosa and submucosa in the corpus and antrum area. Conclusion: Acording to the data obtained in this study, we came to a conclusion it was essential that it should be investigated in humans whether these morphological formation characteristics of the stomachs would cause some functional disorder in clinics and what effects these elastic fibers have on the mechanism of bouncing back into stomach from duodenum.
