Cardiovascular Development 3 Flashcards
What will most defects be related to?
Membranous portion of interventicular septum
What occurs before primary septum closes?
We start to see little porforations and we see holes beginning to form in the primary septum
What causes for formation of secondary ostium?
Before primary septum closes we start to see little porforation that form holes in primary septum which forms secondary ostium
what does partitioning of the truncus arteriosus result in?
Formation of the aorta and pulmonary trunks
What are the 2 pairs of swelling that appear along the lumen wall?
Right superior and left inferior truncus swellings
Right dorsal and left ventral conus swellings
How are the 2 pairs of swellings arranged and what does this result in?
Swellings are at right angles to eachother, so when the pairs merg with each other they create a spiral septum
What forms aorticopulmonary septum?
RIght and Left tronchal and right and left conal swellings twist and meet
What cells are very important in formation of aorticopulmonary septum?
Neural crest cells
What do neural crest cells do in formation of aorticopulmonary septum?
Migrate to truncus arteriosus
Signal development of truncus
What brings about most abnormalities?
Changes in pressure gradients and flow patterns
What occurs when flow goes wrong?
All else goes wrong
What are 4 abnormalities that result in insufficiently oxygenated blood pumped to the body?
- Narrowing of pulmonary vlave
- Thickening of wall of right ventricles
- Displacement of aorta over ventricular septal defect
- Ventricular septal defect - openeing between the left and right ventricles
What causes for thickening of right heart?
Has to work against pressure on left
What is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease?
Transportation of great vessels
- Aorta arises from right ventricle
- Pulmonary Artery arises from left ventricle
What are the 3 main sources of venous blood to the heart?
- Cardinal veins - anterior to head and posterior to body
- Umbilical veins - placenta
- Viteline veins - yolk sac/gut
