embryo Flashcards
What parts of the GI are from endoderm?
mucosal epithelium and GI glands
What parts of the GI are from mesoderm?
muscular wall, smooth muscle, connective tissue, vasculature
What parts of the GI are from ectoderm?
neural crest - enteric ganglia, nerves, glia
ectoderm- mouth and anal canal
What are the derivatives of the foregut?
pharynx to proximal duodenum, liver, pancreas, gallbladder
What are the derivatives of the midgut?
latter duodenum to right half of transverse colon, including appendix
What are the derivatives of the hindgut?
left half of transverse colon to superior anal canal, epithelium of bladder and urethra
What blood supplies the foregut?
celiac trunk
What blood supplies the midgut?
superior mesenteric artery
What blood supplies the hindgut?
inferior mesenteric artery
Describe the rotation of the stomach in 4 events:
- ventral border rotates to the right
- dorsal border rotates to the left
- left side becomes ventral
- right side becomes dorsal
then growth and rotation along AP axis
What are the prenatal and postnatal signs of a tracheoesophageal fistula?
prenatally: polyhydramnios
postnatally: coughing, gagging, cyanosis, vomiting, oral secretions, resp. distress
What happens in hypertrophic pyloric stenosis? What are the presentations?
circular and longitudinal muscles hypertrophy
immediate post feeding vomiting, fewer and smaller stools, failure to gain weight
What does the hepatic diverticulum give rise to?
liver, gallbladder and ventral pancreatic bud
the stalk becomes the hepatic duct and bile duct
How does the pancreas form?
ventral pancreatic bud migrates to dorsal side.
what does the dorsal pancreatic bud give rise to?
body and tail of pancreas
what does the ventral pancreatic bud give rise to?
head and uncinate process
what happens with an annular pancreas? whats the embryological causing?
obstruction of duodenum; symptoms similar to pyloric stenosis
head of pancreas is bifed; malrotation causes the site of duodenal obstruction
what do we need to know about the spleen?
the spleen is foregut but is made from mesoderm
forms from week 5
is a hematopoetic organ and helps with hematopoesis in weeks 9-28
