Development of the Abdomen Flashcards
during third week of development what does the embryo become and what are the layers called
trilaminar disc three layers of disc (germ layers) ectoderm (continuous with amnion) mesoderm (single horseshoe shaped canal- intraembryonic coelom) endoderm (continuous with yolk sac)
what directions does the embryo fold and what does this do
craniocaudally
laterally
canals and part of yolk sac are incorporated into embryo
what is the result of embryonic folding
gut tube (endoderm surrounded by support mesoderm) suspended inside cavity b/w a dorsal and a ventral connection to the body wall
by the 5th week of development there is a single gut tube suspended by what?
THE dorsal mesentery
Major developmental events of the gastrointestinal system occur when in embryonic life (and what marks the beginning and the end
between
4th week- initial dilation of stomach
and 10th week- return of herniated loops of intestine
foregut derivatives are suppled by what artery
celiac artery
foregut derivaties are (name the organs)
esophagus stomach (gaster) proximal half of duodenum liver (hepar) gall pladder pancrease
the respiratory diverticulum is an outgrowth of what section of the gut and forms what?
foregut outgrowth
forms: larynx, trachea, and lungs
the foregut includes what (name of the gut and its extension from where to where)?
pharyngeal gut from buccopharyngeal membrane to respiratory diverticulum
the foregut forms part of what cavity and what other structures (not abdominal organs)
oral cavity
pharynx
directs of the pharyngeal arches
midgut derivatives are supplied by what artery
Superior Mesenteric Artery
midgut derivaties (name the organs)
distal half of duodenum jejunum and ileum cecum and vermiform appendix ascending colon proximal 2/3 of transverse colon
hindgut derivatives are supplied by what artery
inferior mesenteric artery
hindgut derivaties (name the organs)
distal 1/3 of transverse colon
descending and sigmoid coon
superior 1/2 of rectum
the esophagus is formed by what?
a partition that develops in the foregut tube called the tracheoesophageal septum
formation of esophagus begins as what?
respiratory diverticulum (lung buds) that expand caudally forming the esophagotracheal ridge- this later forms the septum that separates pharynx into esophagus and trachea
the stomach starts as?
dilation (swelling) in tube (foregut)
what surface of the stomach grows faster?
dorsal surface grows faster than ventral surface
what surface becomes the greater curvature and why
dorsal surface
because it grows faster than the ventral surface
rotation of stomach during development does what?
causes the original ventral surface to move to the right and the original dorsal surface to move to the left
this makes the greater curvature end up on the left side in adults
rotation of stomach during development results in what structure?
lesser sac (omental bursa)
the composition of vagal trunks (left being anterior and right being posterior) can be explained by?
90 degree rotation of stomach on its longitudinal axis
the liver develops as what?
a bud (hepatic diverticulum) off the foregut
the liver grows in what direction pushing through what?
grows out ventrally
pushes through the inferior part of the septum transversum (later becomes ventral mesentery)
as the liver grows it does what (in relation to abdominal cavity) and this causes what
bulges into abdominal cavity
pulls the septum transversum with it
causes liver to be suspended b/w foregut and anterior abdominal wall by ventral mesentery (septum transversum)
the septum transversum (other than ventral mesentery) is a main component of what and is formed from what germ layer?
diaphragm
mesoderms
the falciform ligament (derived from what, connects what, carries what)
derived from ventral mesentery
liver to anterior abdominal wall
free margin carries umbilical vein (ligamentum teres)
lesser omentum (derived from what, what does it connect)
derived from ventral mesentery
connects liver to foregut
