chapter 14 terms Flashcards
development of the heart
gelatinous connective tissue located between primordial myocardium and endocardium
cardiac jelly
grows from roof of primordial atrium toward endocardial cushions
septum primum
forms just to the right of septum primum and grows toward endocardial cushions
septum secundum
heart moved to right and inverted like a mirror image the right side of the body»_space; caused by improper initial bending of heart tube
dextrocardia
heart only organ moved to opposite side of body
isolated dextrocardia
heart and abdominal viscera mirror imaged to opposite side of body
dextrocardia situs inversus
heart located external to thoracic cavity, due to failure of lateral folds to properly close + agenesis of the sternum and loss of pericardial cavity
ectopia cordis
due to anomalies of septum primum or septum secundum
ostium secundum ASDs
septum primum fails to fuse with endocardial cushions thereby not closing foramen primum
endocardial cushion defect with patent foramen primum
located near opening of superior vena cava»_space; septum did not fully partition sinus venosus
sinus venosus ASDs
no partitioning of atria due to all of the above ASDs in the infant
common atrium
most common type of significant heart anomaly
most involve membranous septum
small VSDs can close spontaneously during first year
most VSDs of the muscular septum also involve other anomalies
ventricular septal defects
failure of truncal ridges to form spiral septum
persistent truncus ateriosus
most common form of cyanotic heart disease in newborns
transposition of the great vessels
diverts ~ 60% of oxygenated blood past liver directly to the inferior vena cava
ductus venosus
