Thoracic Cavity Development Flashcards
Pericardial Space
heart is here.
bleed here means heart failure
Peritoneal cavity
space where abdominal viscera is
herniation of small intestine and portion of large intestine
septum transversum
will become the central tendon of the thoracic diaphragm
intraembryonic coelm
horseshoe like cavity
develops during the 4th week
What does the yolk sac become
the gut tube
What does ectoderm superior to the intraembryonic mesoderm become
skin
What does intraembryonic somatic mesoderm become
skeletal muscle
Somatopleure
was intraembryonic somatic mesoderm
splanchnopleure
was intraembryonic splanchic mesoderm. surrounds guts
What does somatopleure become
parietal layers of pleura
Why does umbilical herniation happen
because small intenstine grows too fast for the embryo
Head fold
-heart was on the top of the head and has to be moved ventrally and behind the body wall
Horizontal fold
brings caudal limbs together ventrally. Think about splanchnopleure and somatopleura reaching out and giving itself a hug. forms gut dub
Ectopic cordis
timing is thrown off between 4-8 weeks
Dorsal mesentery
-crainal fold must arrive in adult position before the lateral fold or else the heart is not in the right place
Provides route for vascular, nerves, and lymphatics to get to developing origins
permanent structure
