Q

AA 6

A

Pulmonary arteries

22
Q

On the left side, what is retained from AA 6 and affects recurrent laryngeal nerve path?

A
Ductus arteriosus (ligamentum arteriosum)
- Left recurrent laryngeal nerve loops around it
23
Q

On the right side, what happens to AA 6 and how does that affect the recurrent laryngeal nerve path?

A

Distal part regresses away from dorsal aorta and so the right recurrent laryngeal nerve loops around the right subclavian

24
Q

What happens to the portion of the dorsal aortas between AA 3 and 4?

A

= carotid duct == obliterated

25
Q

The right dorsal aorta ____ from 7th intersegmental A. to junction with left dorsal aorta

A

Disappears

26
Q

Supplies yolk sac and eventually becomes GI vasculature

A

Vitelline arteries

27
Q

Paired ventral branches of dorsal aorta that go to placenta and bladder

A

Umbilical arteries

28
Q

Oxygen rich blood bypasses the liver and enters?

A

IVC and Right atrium

29
Q

Where does a majority of the blood go once its in the right atrium?

A

Through the foramen ovale to get to the left atrium

30
Q

Left atrial blood goes to the left ventricle and then on to the ascending aorta to reach?

A

Arteries of heart, head, neck, upper limbs

31
Q

What is special about the blood that reaches the arteries of the heart, head, neck, and upper limbs?

A

It has the HIGHEST Oxygen content!

32
Q

Where does some of the blood go once its in the right atrium?

A

Right ventricle

33
Q

If blood enters the right ventricle, where does 90% go from there?

A

To pulmonary trunk – Ductus arteriosus – Descending aorta (bypasses lungs)

34
Q

Approximately how much blood goes into the lungs?

A

10%

35
Q

Ductus arteriosus connects?

A

Pulmonary trunk with descending aorta to bypass the lungs

36
Q

Most of the blood in the SVC goes to the?

A

Right ventricle

37
Q

Vitelline veins form what in the liver primordia?

A

Hepatic sinusoids

38
Q

The right vitelline vein forms?

A

Right hepatocardiac channel that becomes the inferior IVC

39
Q

Umbilical veins pass on either side of the?

A

Liver

40
Q

Do umbilical veins connect to hepatic sinusoids?

A

Yes

41
Q

Which umbilical vein ends up being the only one to carry blood to the liver?

A

Left umbilical vein

42
Q

What does the ductus venosus connect?

A

Left umbilical vein and the right hepatocardiac channel

43
Q

What drain the body of the embryo?

A

Cardinal veins

44
Q

Anastomosis between what form the left brachiocephalic vein?

A

Right anterior cardinal vein and the Left anterior cardinal vein

45
Q

When is a common cardinal vein formed?

A

When the anterior and posterior cardinal veins join

46
Q

What forms the SVC?

A

Right common cardinal vein

47
Q

What does the left cardinal vein form?

A

Coronary sinus

48
Q

Proximal right subclavian A is formed from?

A

AA 4 on the right

49
Q

Distal right subclavian A is formed from?

A

7th Cervical Intersegmental A.

50
Q

What are the 3 main veins in the venous system during development?

A

Vitelline
Umbilical
Common Cardinal
