48
Q

what effect does cardiac looping have on the sinus venosus?

A

it begins to shift towards the right atrium

49
Q

what happens to the left vitelline vein and the left umbilical vein?

A

they eventually disappear

50
Q

what does the remnants of the left sinus horn become?

A

the coronary sinus

51
Q

as the left atrium enlarges, the sinus venosus now only opens into what?

A

the future right atrium (sinoatrial orifice)

52
Q

what does the right common cardinal vein become?

A

the superior vena cava

53
Q

what does the right vitelline vein eventually become?

A

part of the inferior vena cava

54
Q

what happens to the right umbilical vein?

A

it is eventually lost

55
Q

as the right atrium incorporates the developing superior and inferior vena cava and orifice of the coronary sinus, what develops on either side of the opening?

A

a pair of tissue flaps- the left and right atrial venous valves

56
Q

What is the sinus venarum?

A

part of sinus venosus that is incorporated into the atria

57
Q

what role does differential growth have on partition of the heart?

A

it makes the muscular interventricular septum and muscular atrial septum- never closes the lumen though

58
Q

where is endocardial cushion tissue found?

A

in the AV region and the outflow tract

59
Q

what does the endocardial cushion tissue make?

A

the fibrous (membranous) portions of the atrial and ventricular septum and the conotruncal ridges of the outflow tract

60
Q

what do the specific molecules that are secreted into the cardiac jelly by the the endocardial cushion tissue induce?

A

the formation, migration, and proliferation of new mesenchymal cells derived from the endocardium

61
Q

what is the atrioventricular septum and what is another name for it?

A

it separates the atrium from the ventricle; formed when the endocardial cushions in the AV region fuse at midline; aka the septum intermedium

62
Q

what is the composition of the conotruncal ridges that are in the outflow tract?

A

part endocardial cushion tissue and part neural crest cells

63
Q

what is a persistent AV canal?

A

when there is failure of AV septum fusion- there will be atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect as cushion tissue from AV septum contributes to the fibrous portion of the septa

64
Q

what is the effect of a persistent AV canal?

A

pulmonary hypertension; intolerance to exercise; shortness of breath; cardiac congestion

65
Q

what is persistent AV canal linked with?

A

Down’s syndrome

66
Q

the oxygenated blood in the fetus is entering the right atrium and must bypass the pulmonary circuit and get the oxygenated blood into the systemic side(left side). How does it do this?

A

there is development of a one-way flutter valve between the atria - formation of two septa within the atrium

67
Q

what is the first septa that is formed in the atrium?

A

the septum primum

68
Q

what hole is found in the septum primum near the AV septum?

A

ostium I (or foramen primum)

69
Q

as cushion tissue from the AV septum and dorsal mesenchymal protrusion begin to close the ostium I (or foramen primum), what forms?

A

a new hole in septum primum forms near the cranial end of the septum- called ostium secundum (aka foramen secondum)

70
Q

as the atria are expanding, an additional sickle-shaped and much thicker septum forms. What is this new septum called?

A

septum secondum

71
Q

what hole forms in the septum secondum?

A

foramen ovale

72
Q

what acts as a one-way flutter valve allowing right atrial blood to enter the left atrium but not flow in the opposite direction?

A

septum primum

73
Q

after birth and with the 1st breath, what happens to the blood pressure in the left atrium?

A

it increases

74
Q

what happens to the RV and RA pressures at birth?

A

they decrease

75
Q

what occurs due to the pressure always being higher on the left side of the heart compared to the right side?

A

this drives septum I up against septum II resulting in a functionally closed septum

76
Q

at birth, what do most atrial septal defects (ASDs) result in?

A

an initial left to right shunting of blood

77
Q

over time, what does the shunting to the right side that occurs with ASDs lead to?

A

abnormal increased blood flow to the lungs, which later causes the RV to hypertrophy and leads to CHF

78
Q

what happens as the RV hypertrophies?

A

a right to left shunt begins and cyanosis appears

79
Q

what is a high atrial septal defect?

A

there is a hole in the atrial septum caused by either excessive absorption of septum I that forms an overly large ostium II or an inadequate development of septum II

80
Q

what is a low atrial septal defect?

A

an ostium I defect; failure of up-growth of AV cushion tissue from the AV septum to fill in ostium primum

81
Q

how is cyanosis also manifested visually?

A

clubbing of fingers, bluish fingernail beds and lips; easy fatique

82
Q

what is the fetal cardiac blood flow?

A

pattern is such that the bulk of the blood entering from the IVC is shuttled through the foramen ovale into the left atrium

83
Q

how is ventricular septation accomplished?

A

by the formation of the interventricular septum

84
Q

why must you shift the AV canal toward the right side?

A

to separate the ventricle into a right and left side and still get blood from the atrium into both ventricular sides

85
Q

how does shifting of the AV canal occur?

A

differential expansions of the right ventricle, remodeling of the AV canal, and through cardiac looping (shifts the out flow track to the left)

86
Q

what happens if the AV shift fails or cardiac looping is insufficient?

A

mal-alignment defects can form such as a double outlet right ventricle

87
Q

what occurs during a double outlet right ventricle?

A

both aorta and pulmonary artery exit via the right ventricle accompanied by a ventricular septal defect

88
Q

what are the symptoms like in a patient with a double outlet right ventricle?

A

symptoms show within days including cyanosis, breathlessness, murmur and later poor weight gain

89
Q

what does complete ventricular septation require?

A

fusion of the conotruncal ridges with each other and then with the interventricular septum

90
Q

what is the difference between extraembryonic vasculogenesis and intraembryonic vasculogenesis?

A

extraembryonic vasculogenesis is coupled with hematopoiesis; intraembryonic vasculogenesis is not

91
Q

when does vessel formation in the intraembryonic splanchnopleuric mesoderm occur?

A

day 18

92
Q

a subset of cells in the intraembryonic splanchnic mesoderm differentiates directly into what?

A

endothelial precursor cells

93
Q

what do the endothelial precursor cells proliferate and differentiate into?

A

endothelial cells that then organize into small-vesicle like structures (vasculogenic cords)

94
Q

what is the proximal outflow tract and becomes the outflow portion of both ventricles?

A

the conus arteriosus

95
Q

what is the distal-most end of the outflow tract that forms the aorta and the pulmonary artery?

A

truncus arteriosus

96
Q

what forms the SA node?

A

a portion of the right sinus horn and right common cardinal vein

97
Q

before we separate the atrium into right and left halves, we need to somehow get all the blood coming back to the heart to be coming back to the right side of the common atrium. What are the two major drivers of this?

A

differential growth of the left side causes the sinus venosus opening (aka the sinuatrial junction) to shift to the right; and changes in hemodynamics

98
Q

what are the changes in hemodynamics that occur that allow the returning blood to the return to the right side of the heart?

A

we lose the left umbilical vein, left vitelline vein, and the right umbilical vein

99
Q

as the heart enlarges, the right sinus horn becomes incorporated into the posterior wall of the right atrium. What will this eventually be known as?

A

the sinus venarum

100
Q

what are some of the most common congenital heart defects?

A

ventricular septal defects

101
Q

what do ventricular heart defects initally start out as?

A

acyanotic (left-to-right) but become cyanotic sometime after birth

102
Q

what is persistent truncus arteriosus?

A

the conotruncal ridges do not form at all

103
Q

what are the clinical signs of persistent truncus arteriosus?

A

mild cyanosis that develops into severe cyanosis

104
Q

What are the four hallmarks associated with Tetralogy of Fallot?

A

VSD, overriding aorta, pulmonary stenosis, right ventricular hypertrophy

105
Q

what happens in tetraology of fallot?

A

as the spiraling septa forms, instead of diving the outflow track in half equally, it cheats the pulmonary side- there is unequal division

106
Q

what will we see at birth in patients with tetralogy of fallot?

A

a right to left shunt and cyanosis

107
Q

what happens with cases of transportation of the great vessels?

A

the fused conotruncal ridges do not spiral

108
Q

what are the connections of the heart in patients with transportation of the great vessels?

A

the right ventricle gets connected with the aorta and the left ventricle gets connected with the pulmonary artery

109
Q

how can you survive transposition of the great vessels?

A

keep the ductus arteriosus open

110
Q

what is pulmonary valvular atresia?

A

the pulmonary semi lunar valves do not form at all

111
Q

in order to get blood anywhere in patients with pulmonary valvular atresia, what must happen?

A

the foramen ovale must stay open

112
Q

what happens to the right ventricle in patients with pulmonary valvular atresia?

A

the right ventricle will be hypoplastic

113
Q

what happens to the left ventricle in patients with pulmonary valvular atresia?

A

it will be hypertrophied

114
Q

what is aortic valvular stenosis and what does it cause?

A

narrowing of the semi lunar valves of the aorta- causes left ventricular hypertrophy

115
Q

what is aortic valvular atresia?

A

complete closure of the aortic outlet- the left ventricle does not develop at all

116
Q

how do we get blood to the systemic circulation in patients with aortic valvular atresia?

A

they have a very large ductus arteriosus

117
Q

what does a bicuspid aortic valve cause?

A

left ventricular hypertrophy- since the two valves don’t close off the outlet very well- you can get regurgitation
