Development Flashcards
What fuses in the midline to create a single heart tube?
Endocardial tube
What do endocardial heart tubes begin as? How many endocardial tubes develop?
Angioblastic cords; 4
What adult structures are formed by the endocardial heart tubes?
The medial two become dorsal aorta; lateral tubes fuse to form the cords that create the primitive heart
What is the venous end that anchors the heart tube caudally?
Sinus venosus
What is the flow of blood through the sinus venosus into the primitive heart tube?
->primitive atrium–>atrioventricular canal–> primitive ventricle–>bulbus cordis–> truncus arteriosus–>aortic sac–> dorsal aortic arches
What structures arise from the truncus arteriosus?
Aorta, pulmonary trunk, aorticopulmonary septum
What forms from the bulbus cordis?
Smooth part of the right ventricle (conus arteriosus) and the smooth part of the left ventricle (aortic vestibule)
From the primitive ventricle arise?
The muscular portion of both ventricles?
What develops from the primitive atrium?
The muscular portion of each atria
From what does the sinus venarum develop?
The right horn of the sinus venosus
From what does the sinus venosus receive venous blood?
Common cardinal veins, umbilical veins, vitelline veins?
What is formed by the union of the anterior and posterior cardinal veins?
Common cardinal veins
What brings unoxygenated blood back from the embryo?
Common cardinal veins
Where does the umbilical vein drain?
The placenta
What kind of blood is contained in the umbilical veins?
Highly oxygenated blood
What area do the vitelline veins drain?
The yolk sac
Of what is the pericardial sac a subdivision?
The intraembryonic coelom
The formation of which structures divides the single atrioventricular canal into right and left atrioventricular canals?
Endocardial cushions
What is the initial septum formed in the development of the interatrial septum?
Septum premum
What forms from the several perforations created in the septum premum as it grows?
Foramen secundum
What is the second septum to grow, which is immediately to the right of the septum primum?
Septum secundum
What forms from the opening of the septum secundum?
Foramen ovale
What will give rise to the coronary sinus?
The left horn of the sinus venous
From what does the sinus venarum develop?
Right horn of the sinus venosus?
What vessels arise from the right horn of the sinus venosus?
Oblique vein of left atrium, middle, small, and great cardiac vv.
From the umbilical vein where does blood go?
Half through ductus venosus into inferior vena cava and half into the liver and through the liver sinus and then into IVC via heptaic veins
Into what does the Inferior Vena Cava drain?
Right attrium
What is the flow of blood from IV through the fetal heart?
Into right atrium–>foramen ovale–>left attrium–>left ventricle–>ascending aorta
What is the flow of blood from the superior vena cava through the heart?
Right atrium–>right ventricle–>pulmonary trunk–>ductus arteriosus–>descending aorta
What does the proximal part of the umbilical arteries become?
Superior vesicle arteries to bladder
What does the distal parts of umbilical arteries become?
median umbilical folds
What changes occur in the fetal circulation after birth?
Increased pulmonary blood flow, thinning of pulmonary artery walls, closure of foramen ovale, ductus venosus–> ligamentum venosum, ductus arteriosus–> ligamentum arteriosum,
What causes constriction of the ductus arteriosus?
Increased oxygenation and secretion of bradykinin by lungs
What four things will occur with tetralogy of Fallot? What is the most obvious sign?
Pulmonary stenosis; right ventricular hypertrophy; ventricular septal defect; dextroposition of aorta (overriding aorta)
What is the most common single cause of cyanotic heart disease in newborns?
Transposition of Great Arteries
What is the anatomical basis of transposition of great arteries?
Improper formation of aorticopulmonary septum
What develops from the first aortic arch?
Maxillary artery (contributes to external carotid)
What develops from the 2nd aortic arch?
Stapedial aa.
