43
Q

the bulbar and truncal ridges derive from what

A

A

when the bulbar and truncal ridges fuse

45
Q

what does the AP septum divide?

A

the truncus arteriosus and bulbus cordis into aorta and pulmonary trunk

46
Q

what is caused by abnormal neural crest cell migration and results in the partial development of the AP septum

A

persistent truncus arteriosus

47
Q

PTA usually presents with what

A

VSD- ventricular membrane defect

right to left shunting

48
Q

when there is VSD and PTA the newborn is usually what

A

cyanotic

49
Q

what happens in D-Transposition of the great arteries (complete)

A

this is when the aorta arises from the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk arises from the left ventricle (incompatible with life)

50
Q

when is D-transposition of the great arteries compatible with life

A

only if there is VSD (open fossa ovalis)

51
Q

L-Transpostion of the great vessels (corrected)?

A

this is when the aorta and the pulmonary trunk are switched and so are the ventricles

52
Q

what results in a pulmonary trunk with a small diameter and the aorta has a large diameter

A

TF (Tetralogy of Fallot)

53
Q

what is TF ( and everything else caused by)

A

abnormal nerual crest cell migration

54
Q

pulmonary stenosis
VSD
dextrapostion of the aorta
right ventricular hypertrophy are also signs of what

A

TF (tetralogy of Fallot

55
Q

why is TF marked by cyanosis

A

because there is right to left shunting due to a VSD

56
Q

when does the SA node develop near the entrance of the SVC

A

week 5

57
Q

what forms from cells of the sinus venosus that incorporate into the ventricle

A

av node and his bundle

58
Q

what works as the pacemaker of the heart

A

av, sa nodes and av bundle of his

59
Q

sa and av nodes stimulate what

A

myocardium

60
Q

the fossa ovales is the opening between what and what

A

upper and lower limbs of the septum secundum

61
Q

where does the septum secundum form

A

the right of the septum primum

62
Q

when does the fossa ovalis close in babies

A

when there is a decrease in the pressure in the right atria because there is an occlusion of the placenta circulation

pressure in the left atria increase because of pulmonary venous return

(once the lungs start working)

63
Q

what is the most common ASD ( atrial septum defect) and describe it

A

foramen Secundum Defect

caused by excessive resorption of septum primum, secundum, or both

there is an openning between right and left atria

64
Q

what is the defect called that occurs when there is only a formation of one atrium

A

common atrium ( Cor Triloculare Biventriculare)

65
Q

premature closure of the fossa ovales in prenatal life leads too.

A

hypertrophy of the right side of the heart and the underdevelopment of the left side of the heart

66
Q

what approaches each other to form the AP septum?

A

the dorsal and ventral AV cushions

67
Q

when the dorsal and ventral AV cushions fail to form what happens

(persistent common AV canal)

A

there will be a large hole in the center of the heart, this will make the tricuspid and mitral valve will be one common valve

68
Q

What is Ebsteins Anomaly?

A

this is when the posterior and septal leaflets of the tricuspid valve do not attach to the annulus fibrosus, so they are displaced interiorly into the right ventricle

the right ventricle is then divided into a large upper “atrialized” portion and a small lower functional portion

69
Q

Tricuspid Atresia (hypoplastic right heart) what is this?

A

this is when there is complete agenesis of the tricuspid valve so there is no communication between the right atria and the right ventricle

Cyanosis will be present

70
Q

what grows in the floor of the primitive ventricle and expands to the av cushions

A

muscular IV septum

71
Q

what are the three things that proliferate and fuse to form the membraneous IV septum

A
  • right bulbar ridge
  • left bulbar ridge
  • AV cushion
72
Q

what is the most common type of VSD

A

membranous VSD

73
Q

what is caused by the faulty fusion of the right bulbar ridge, left bulbar ridge, and av cushions

this will also have large right to left shunting of blood and increased pulmonary blood flow and pulmonary hypertension

A

membranous VSD

74
Q

what is caused by single or multiple perforations in the muscular IV septum

A

Muscular VSD

75
Q

what is caused by the failure of the membraneous and muscular IV septa to form

A

common ventricle (Cor Triloculare Biatriatum)

76
Q

coarctation of the aorta

A

this is when the aorta is constricted

77
Q

postductal coarctation

A

preductal coarctation is when

A

there is a constriction located superior to the ductus arteriosus
