GI Embryology Flashcards
peritoneum is formed from
mesoderm
when is primitive gut tube formed
week 4
where is primitive gut tube formed from
top of yolk sac
how does the embryo fold to form gut tube
cranially-caudally and laterally
gut tube is formed from
yolk sac endoderm
what happens along with gut tube formation
body cavity and anterolateral body wall are formed, amnion encases embryo
epithelial lining of gut tube is formed from
endoderm
all layers of gut tube wall except epithelial lining are formed from
mesoderm
path of unpaired aortic branches in embryo
travel from posterior body wall to to gut tube through dorsal mesentery
where is gut tube suspended from
posterior body wall
what suspends gut tube from posterior body wall
dorsal mesentery
where does the liver bud off into
ventral mesentery
spleen develops from
mesoderm in dorsal mesentery of stomach
rotation of the stomach
90 degrees clockwise so that the left side faces anteriorly
the dorsal mesogastrium becomes
the greater omentum
the lesser omentum arises from
stomach rotation
dorsal mesentery of the stomach aka
dorsal mesogastrium
how does stomach rotation affect the liver
it moves the liver to the right side of the abdomen
how does the retroperitoneal duodenum and pancreas occur
the rotation of the stomach pushes the duodenum, pancreas, and part of dorsal mesentery against the posterior body wall
parts of dorsal mesentery of the stomach that don’t fuse with parietal peritoneum covering the posterior body wall
splenorenal ligament, gastrosplenic ligament, greater omentum
ventral mesentery comes from
septum transversum
ventral mesentery becomes
lesser omentum and falciform ligament
