Q

conotruncal ridges

A

left and right

will fuse to form conotruncal septum

separates outflow tract of heart

it spirals**
caudally to cranial 180 degrees

34
Q

importance of spiral

A

so right ventricle - pulmonary trunk
and left ventricle - aorta

if doesn’t spiral - transposition of the great vessels**

34
Q

neural crest disorder?

A

heart valve issues

34
Q

cardiac defect

A

most common congenitally

34
Q

VSD

A

ventricle septal defects (hole in the heart ventricle)

in the interventricular septum

  • muscular type
  • membranous type (more common)

symptoms depend on size of hole

will get left-right shunting of blood

  • pressure higher on left side postnatally
  • increased pulmonary blood flow
  • decreased systemic blood flow
34
Q

ectopic cordis

A

body wall defect

thoracic wall doesn’t fuse

heart herniates and forms externally

35
Q

ASD

A

atrioseptal defect (hole in heart atrium)

osteum secundum - cell death

1 excessive resorption of septum primum - lose valve, can’t close foramen ovale
2 septum secundum doesn’t close

left to right shunting of blood

35
Q

endocardial cushions form?

A

AV septum
part of atrial septum (closes ostium primum)
membranous part of interventricular septum

35
Q

endocardial cushion defects

A

neural crest defects

results in:
1 persistent AV canal
2 ASD
3 VSD

35
Q

endocardial cushions form?

A

AV septum
part of atrial septum (closes ostium primum)
membranous part of interventricular septum

36
Q

pulmonary, aortic stenosis

A

narrowing of vessels

due to abnormal valves

36
Q

tetralogy of fallot

A

conal truncal ridges form and spiral - but don’t equally divide (large aorta and small pulmonary trunk)

four features always present**
1 pulmonary stenosis (narrowing)
2 overriding aorta (very large)
3 hypertrophy (right ventricle)
4 VSD (membranous)

right ventricle hypertrophy - because of pulmonary stenosis

one of most common causes of cyanosis in newborn

36
Q

transposition of the great vessels

A

conal truncal ridges don’t spiral

aorta on right side
pulmonary on left side

37
Q

persistent truncus arteriosus

A

conotruncal ridges fail to form

cyanotic infant

mixing of blood because aorta and pulmonary arteries are all together

38
Q

dextrocardia

A

pretty rare

right sided heart

39
Q

ectopic cordis

A

body wall defect

thoracic wall doesn’t fuse

heart herniates and forms externally

50
Q

placental system

A

two umbilical arteries (to placenta)

one umbilical vein (oxygenated back to heart)

51
Q

aortic arches

A

truncus arteriosus > aortic sac
aortic sac gives off 6 pairs (right and left)
form cranial to caudal in the neck

drain to dorsal aorta (left and right)
-thorax they fuse to form dorsal aorta

52
Q

what happens?

A

arch 1 regresses

dorsal aorta between 3 and 4 on L and R regresses
-forms cranial and caudal blood suppliers

right branch of dorsal aortic artery regresses

arch 1, 2 and 5 regress on L and R

arch 3 - forms common carotid artery L and R
arch 4 - forms right subclavian (right side) and arch of aorta (left side)
arch 6 - ductus arteriosus (second blood shunt) on left / right regresses

53
Q

arch 3

A

forms common carotid artery L and R

-main arteries to head and neck

54
Q

arch 4

A

forms right subclavian side (right)

forma aortic arch (left)

55
Q

arch 6

A

right regresses and left forms ductus arteriosus

56
Q

look at the final organization

A

in notes**

57
Q

ductus arteriosus

A

second blood shunt

  • blood from pulmonary trunk goes to aorta
  • so it skips lungs
58
Q

postnatally ductus arteriosus

A

closes, becomes ligamentous

ligamentum arteriosum

59
Q

recurrent laryngeal nerves

A

forms with aortic arch apparatus
-forms in neck and pulled to thorax by heart

given off by vagus nerve

at level of 6th arch to get to larynx

60
Q

63
Q

coarctation of the aorta

A

constriction of aorta

preductal - proximal to ductus arteriosus
-infantile (at birth, bypass closes)

postductal - distal to ductus arteriosus

  • adolescent (intercostal arteries become huge)
  • get blood back to aorta
  • upper limb HTN, lower limb low BP
64
Q

retroesophageal right subclavian artery

A

right subclavian that passes posterior to esophagus
