Embryology Flashcards
Peritoneum
Parietal or Somatic or body wall
Visceral or splanchnic or organ wall
A serous double membrane lining the abdominal cavit and organs
Mesentery
Double layer fold of the peritoneum
Dorsal and ventral Mesentery seen
Splanchnic mesoderm
All from intra embryonic mesoderm
Dorsal Mesentery
Dorsal mesogastrium or greater omentum
Mesodoudenum
Mesentery proper - jejunal and ileal loops
Dorsal mesocolon- region of the colon
Ventral Mesentery
Septum transversum- liver grows in the mesnchyme of the septum transversum dividing the central Mesentery Foregut Gives rise to central tendon of the diaphragm Connective tissue on the liver Exist only in: Terminal esophagus Stomach. Upper part of the duodenum
Creates the lesser omentum and falciparum ligament
Lesser omentum
Lower portion of the esophagus stomach and upper duodenum
Behind liver
Falciform ligament
Extend from the liver to the ventral body
Front of liver
Has round ligament contains fetal umbilical vein
Has hepatoduodenal ligament containing portal triads
Arterial supply
Foregut- celiac trunk
Midgut- superior mesenteric
Hindgut- inferior mesenteric
Fore gut
Pharynx Lower respiratory Esophagus Stomach Proximal 1/2 duodenum bile pancreatic duct papillae Liver gallbladder Pancreas Spleen
Respiratory diverticulum
Comes form ventral side of the foregut to form trachea and lungs
Also called respiratory bud
Stomach
Fusion dilation of the fore gut
Greater curvature of stomach grows dorsal largely
Lesser curvature of stomach grows ventral
90 clockwise around longitudinal
Dorsal mesogastrium rotates with the stomach- creates the omentum bursa which is posterior to the stomach
Spleen primordium
A mesodermal proliferation in the dorsal mesogastrium
Spleen and dorsal midline swing left
Connected by lienorenal ligament and gastrolienal ligament
Intra peritoneal
Greater omentum
Dorsal mesogastrium extend over the stomach
4 layers total come together with the middle being the omentum pal bursa to make this structure
Duodenal development
Swings with stomach to the right side
Pancreas also swings and becomes retroperitoneal
Small portion of duodenum at the stomach is intra peritoneal
Rest of duodenum becomes retroperitoneal
Connected by dorsal mesoduodenum
Liver and gallbladder development
Distal end of foregut
Liver bud or hepatic diverticulum penetrates the septum transversum
Hepatic cells invade septum transversum to make common bile duct
Small ventral outgrowth becomes gallbladder and cystic duct
Pancreas development
Ventral and dorsal pancreatic bud
Originate from endodermal lining of duodenum
Dorsal bud is in dorsal Mesentery
Ventral bud is outgrowth of bile duct
As duodenum rotates ventral bud swings to dorsal
Ventral - uncinate process, part of head
Dorsal- tail body neck head proper
Primary intestinal loop
Rapid elongation of mid gut and Mesentery
Split region at vitelline duct
Cephalic limb- distal duodenum, jejunum, proximal ileum
Caudal limb- distal ileum, cecum, appendix, ascending colon, proximal 2/3 transverse colon
Physiological umbilical herniation
Weeks 6-10 the mid gut is pushed out due to lack of space
