Q

When does Neural Tube Closure occur?

A

Day 22

17
Q

When does Neural Tube Closure complete?

A

Day 27

18
Q

What are the 3 components of the Mesoderm?

A
  1. Paraxial
  2. intermediate
  3. Lateral
19
Q

What are Somites?

A

Paired aggregations of mesoderm cells cuboid in shape

20
Q

What is the importance of Somites?

A

They from most of the Axial Skeleton including the Vertebral Column

21
Q

What is Teratogenesis?

A

Malformation of the Foetus

22
Q

Describe the Sinus Venous?

A
  1. It has Right and Left Sinus Horns

2. Each Sinus Horn receives: Vitamin Vein, Umbilical Vein and Common Cardinal Veins (Anterior and Posterior)

23
Q

What happens to the Sinus Venous during development?

A
  1. The entrance of Sinus Venous narrows and moves right
  2. Right umbilical vein and Left vitamin veins vanish
  3. The 2 Anterior Cardinal Veins join to form the Left Brachiocephalic Vein
  4. The left sinus horn gets smaller and becomes the Oblique vein of left atrium and the coronary sinus
24
Q

What happens to the trunks of the Primitive Aorta in development?

A
  1. !st, 2nd and 5th Trunk disappears
  2. 3rd Arch becomes the Carotids
  3. 4th Arch becomes the arch of aorta and subclavian artery
  4. The 6th trunk becomes the Pulmonary Trunk and Ductus arteriosus
25
Q

What happens to the Viteline Veins in development?

A
  1. Left side mostly obliterates

2. Right side forms the Hepatocardiac Inferior Vena Cava, Portal Vein and Superior Mesenteric Vein

26
Q

What do the happens to the Cardinal Veins in development?

A
  1. Supracardinal Veins drain the body wall–> become the Azygous System
  2. Subcardinal Veins drain the Kidney
  3. Sacrocardinal Veins drain the Lower Extremeties
  4. Anterior Cardinal Vein forms the Superior Vena Cava
  5. Posterior Cardinal Veins mostly obliterate
27
Q

What are the right to left shunts in the Fetal circulation?

A
  1. Atrial Septum

2. Ductus Arteriosus

28
Q

What are Acyanotic Shunts?

A

Left to Right Shunts–> in Atrial Septal Defect, Ventricular Septal Defect, And PDA

29
Q

What are Cyanotic Shunts?

A

Right to Left Shunts–> Reduces flow to Pulmonary Circulation

30
Q

What are the 5 Cyanotic Shunts?

A
  1. Tetralogy of Fallot
  2. Transposition of Great Vessels
  3. Trunks Arteriosus
  4. Tricuspid Atresia
  5. TAPVR
31
Q

What is Tetralogy of Fallot?

A

Unequal division of the Conus Cordis (When the Septum is too anterior)–> Causes Pulmonary Stenosis, large Ventricular Septal Defect, Overriding Aorta and Hypertrophy of the Right Ventricle
