(villi that grow from the sides of the stem villi, through the walls of branch/terminal villi that the main exchange of material between the blood of mother and embryo)
Stomodeum
the oropharyngeal membrane separates the foregut from the stomodeum. (a depression between the brain and pericardium
Septum transversum / central tendon of diaphragm
septum transversum develops into the central tendon of the diaphragm
Umbilical cord / connecting stalk
Umbilical cord forms the connecting stalk
Fourth Week
Pharyngeal arches
Otic pits
Lens placodes
Lens placodes
ectodermal thickenings, indicating the future lenses of the eyes
Otic pits
by day 26 to 27 they are visible, along with the primordial - of internal ears
Pharyngeal arches
3 pairs visible by 26 days gestation
Fifth Week
Mesonephric ridge
Mesonephric ridge
indicate the site of the mesonephric kidneys, which are interim organs in humans.
Sixth Week
Hand plates / digital rays
Digital rays
Auricular hillocks
External acoustic / auditory meatus
External acoustic / auditory meatus
pharyngeal groove becomes this
Auricular hillocks
several small swellings that develop around the pharyngeal groove or cleft between the first 2 pharyngeal arches
Digital rays
the promience of the digits begin to develop in the hand plates, indicating the formation of the digits
Hand plates / digital rays-
upper limb begins to show regional differentiation as the elbows and large hand plates develop
Seventh Week
Limb changes
Yolk stalk
Yolk stalk
the communication between the primordial gut and yolk sac is now reduced to a relatively slender duct, the yolk stalk
Limb changes
undergo considerable changes during 7th week
Eighth week
Scalp vascular plexus
Purposeful limb movements
Purposeful limb movements
first occur during 8th week
Ninth week
Short legs and small thighs
Liver / major site of erythropoiesis
Liver / major site of erythropoiesis
liver is the major site of erythropoiesis at beginning of fetal period
Short legs and small thighs
early in the 9th week the legs are short and the thighs are relatively small.
Tenth Week
Intestinal coils
Intestinal coils
clearly visible in the proximal end of the umbilical cord until the middle of the 10th week
Eleventh Week
the intestines have returned to the abdomen
Twelfth Week
External genitalia
Primary ossification centers
Erythropoiesis / spleen
Urine formation
Urine formation
urine formation begins between 9th and 12th weeks, and urine is discharged into the amniotic fluid
Erythropoiesis / spleen-
by the end of the 12th week, erythropoiesis is decreased in liver and has begun in the spleen
Primary ossification centers-
by the end of 12 weeks the primary ossifcation centers appear in the skeleton, especially in the cranium and long bones
External genitalia
- the mature form is not established until week 12
Thirteen to Sixteen Weeks
Growth- growth is very rapid during these weeks
Slow eye movements
occur at the 14th week
Sixteenth Week
Ovaries contain primordial follicles
Bones clearly visible
External genitalia
Bones clearly visible
at the beginning of week 16, the bones are clearly visible on ultrasound images of the mothers abdomen
Ovaries contain primordial follicles
the ovaries in female fetuses are differentiated and contain primary follicles that have oogonia
External genitalia
can be recognized by 16th week
Seventeenth Week
Growth slows down
Eighteenth Week
Uterus formation
Oogonia formation
Uterus formation
forms in the female fetuses and canalization of the vagina has begun
Oogonia formation
by this time, many primordial ovarian follicles containg oogonia have formed
Twentieth Week
Quickening
Brown fat
Eyebrows / hair
Testes formation
Quickening
the limbs reach their final relative proportions and fetal movements known as quickening are commonly felt by the mother
Brown fat
begins to form and is the site of heat production
Eyebrows / hair
visible at 20 weeks
Testes formation
they begin to descend, but are still located in the posterior abdominal wall
Twenty One to Twenty Five Weeks
Weight gain-
Blink - startle responses
Type II penumocytes
finger nails
Weight gain-
is substantial at this point (21-25 weeks)
Type II penumocytes
the secretory epithelial cells in the intraveolar walls of the lung have begun to secrete surfactant, a surface- active lipid that maintains the patency of the developing alveoli of the lungs
Blink - startle responses
they have been reported at 22 to 23 wks following application of a vibroacoustic noise source to the mothers abdomen
finger nails
present (21-25 weeks)
Twenty Six to Twenty Nine Weeks
Lungs
Fetal spleen / hemopoiesis
Lungs
lungs are now capable of breathing air
Eyelids open at week 26
Fetal spleen / hemopoiesis
the spleen is now an important site of hemopoiesis
Thirty to Thirty four Weeks
Skin pink- and smooth
Upper and lower limbs chubby
Thirty Five to Thirty Eight Weeks
Nervous system
Weight 3400 gm
Testes descends to scrotum
Nervous system
is sufficiently mature to carry out some integrative functions
Weight 3400 gm
normal fetuses usually weigh this
Testes descends to scrotum
usually in the scrotum in full term male infants
Expected Date of Delivery
266 days or 38 weeks after fertilization
Glucose, amino acids, insulin
primary source of energy for fetal metabolism and growth
Cigarette smoking
the growth rate of fetuses of mothers who smoke is less than normal during the last 6-8 wks
Fetal starvation-
chronic reduction of uterine blood flow can cause this.
Causes for IUGR / Down syndrom
Perinatal medicine
combines aspects of obstetrics and pediatrics
