Q

What does the traschoesophageal septum form from?

A

The tracheoesophageal ridges

Tracheoesophageal ridges fuse together to form the tracheoesophageal septum. It is the tracheoseophageal septum that is responsible for separating the tracheal primordium from the esophageal primordium.

Q

During the 5th week, pleuropericardial folds grow out from the lateral body wall toward the midline. What are the next steps following this?

A

They fuse with each other and with mesoderm associated with the esophagus. Simultaneously, the roots of these folds migrate ventrally so that they ultimately originate from the ventral body wall.

Q

What is the role of the pleuropericardial folds?

A

The pleuropericardial folds with their associated serous membrane form the pericardial sac and transform the primitive pericardial cavity into a definitive pericardial cavity and right and left pleural cavities.​

Q

Explain the relationship between the septum transversum and the pericardioperitoneal canals.

A

In the future thoracic region, the septum transversum forms a ventral partition beneath the paired pericardioperitoneal canals (arrows), which interconnect the primitive pericardial cavity cranially and peritoneal cavities caudally.

Q

Explain how the separation of the abdominal and thoracic cavities occurs. (Think diaphragm formation).

A

Closure of the pericardioperitoneal canals. Between weeks 5 and 7, a pair of horizontal pleuroperitoneal membranes grow from the posterior body wall to meet the septum transversum (arrows) A, thus closing the pericardioperitoneal canals. These membranes form the posterior portions of the diaphragm and completely seal off the pleural cavities from the peritoneal cavity. Arrows in B indicate invasion of the developing diaphram by muscle fibers from the adjacent body wall.

Q

What components make up the diaphragm?

A

Q

What is a diaphragmatic hernia?

A

A hole in the diaphragm leads to parts of the intestine being in the chest cavity. This can cause pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary insufficieny.

Q

Why can bag-mask ventilation make neonates with diaphragmatic hernia worse?

A

This causes the stomach and bowel to fill with gas which will further compromise respiration and cardiac action

Q

Why are abdomens considered scaphoid in a child with a diaphragmatic hernia?

A

The abdomen is displaced into the chest.

22
Q

The pleuropericardial folds will divide what?

A

The thoracic portion of the body cavity into the pleural and pericardial cavities

23
Q

What is the terminal sac period and when does it occur?

A

Terminal sac period is phase in which the blood-air-barrier is formed with surfactant, type I pneumocyte and its basal lamina, and a capillary endothelial cell and its basal lamina.

26 weeks until birth

24
Q

What is the pseudoglandular period of lung maturation?

A

Branching has continued to form terminal bronchioles, but not alveoli are present

25
Q

What is the canalicular period of lung maturation?

A

Each terminal bronchiole divides into 2 or more respiratory bronchioles which in turn divide into 3-6 alveolar ducts

26
Q

What is the alveolar period?

A

Mature alveoli have well-developed epithelial endothelial contacts

27
Q

During the canalicular period what cells line the respiratory bronchiole? How does this change during the terminal sac period?

A

Canalicular Period: Cuboidal cells line the respiratory bronchiole

Terminal Sac Period: Cuboidal cells become very thin and are intimately associated with the endothelium of blood and lymph capillaries or form terminal sacs (primitive alveoli).

28
Q

What period is this an image of?

A

Pseudoglandual period

Note the glandular appearance of the organ

29
Q

What period of lung maturation is this an image of? Can you name what all the arrows are?

A

Terminal Sac Period

30
Q

Why is the terminal sac period important?

A

The terminal sac period is the phase of lung development in which the blood-air-barrier is established with type I pneumocytes and capillary endothelial cells, their basal laminae, and a thin layer of surfactant.

31
Q

What drives the development of endoderm?

A

Mesenchyme

32
Q

What is the role of Tbx5 and RA in branching morphogenesis?

A

TBx5 is a T-box transcription factor; RA is the abbreviation for retinoic acid, and signaling by these lead to the induction of mesenchyme to secrete FGF10.

33
Q

FGF10 binds to what?

A

FGFR2

34
Q

How do FGF, Shh and BMP4 cause branching?

A
35
Q

What is the role of Sprouty and TGF-B in branching?

A

Sprouty restricts branching to the tip and TGF-B stimulates ECM deposition and inhibits cell proliferation

36
Q

What is oligohydramnios?

A

Amniotic Fluid index - a measure of total amniotic fluid. Oligohydramnios is an AFI < 5cm

Less urine output = less fluid

37
Q

What is polyhydramnios?

A

AFI > 24cm

Less swallowing = more fluid

38
Q

What are the symptoms of a tracheoesophageal fistulae in a newborn?

A

Copious salivation associated with choking, coughing, vomiting and cyanosis coincident with the onset of feeding.

39
Q

Infants with TEF are at increased risk for defects in what?

A

The VACTERL defects

Vertebral, Anal atresia, cardiac defects, renal and limb defects

40
Q

What is a promixal esophageal atresia and distal TEF? Is this the most common?

A

Yes it is the most common

41
Q

What is hypertrophic pyloric stenosis?

A

Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is a form of gastric outlet obstruction that results from congenital thickening of the muscle of the pylorus. The result is a narrowing of the lumen of the pylorus and therefore, the outlet to the duodenum.

42
Q

What is an important symptom associated with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis?

A

Non-bilious projectile vomiting following feeding

43
Q

What is the most common cause of oligohydramnios?

A

Early leaking of the amniotic fluid due to premature rupture of membranes that surround fetus. This can restrict fetal breathing which is vitally important for normal lung development

44
Q

What is the second most common cause for oligohydramnios?

A

Fetal renal anomalies. Amniotic fluid is produced by the amniotic membranes and the fetal kidneys. Abnormalities in the fetal kidneys can cause too little amniotic fluid to be produced.

45
Q

Oligohydramnios is strongly associated with what?

A

Limb malformations and severe lung immarturity

46
Q

What are these images of?

A

Hypoplasia of the lung due to oligohydramnios

47
Q

What is congential lobar emphysema?

A

Collapsed bronchi occur because of congenitally weakened or absent cartilage in the wall of the bronchi. Sometimes more lobes of the lung are over-distended with air because air can be inspired through collapsed bronchi, but cannot be expired.

48
Q

What is aeration at birth?

A

Replacement of liquid with air in the lungs

49
Q

What are the complications of TEFs?

A

Polyhydramnios, pneumonitis, and pneumonia

50
Q

What is neonatal respiratory distress syndrome?

A

Surfactant deficiency in neonates. Can be caused by mothers with diabetes. This deficiency can cause the lungs to collapse with each successive breathe.

51
Q

What is the role of the septum transversum?

A

It grows towards the pleuroperitoneal fold to help form the diaphragm

52
Q

In a child with diaphragmatic hernia, what is often the fatal complication associated with it?

A

Severe pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary insufficiency may often be fatal.
