Embryology

Cardiovascular System 1

QA
Angioblasts condense to form angioblastic cords. Where are these cords derived from? The angioblastic cords are derived from the splanchnic mesoderm
What developes into the endothelial lining of the heart? The endocardial heart tubes
Where are the endocardial heart tubes in relation to the prechordal plate? The endocardial heart tubes are initially anterior to the prechordal plate, then fold to ventral portion of thorax
what surrounds the endocardial tube? The primordial myocardium surrounds the endocardial tube. It is derived from the splanchnic mesoderm, and becomes the myocardium.
What are the early divisions of the heart? (cranial) truncus arteriosus, bulbus cordis, ventricle, atrioventricular/AV canal, atrium, sinus venosus (caudal)
What holds the truncus arteriosus in place? the truncus arteriosus is held in place by "pharyngeal arches", and is continuous cranially w/ the aortic sac
Which part of the bulbus cordis forms the exit tracts of both ventricles? The distal portion of the bulbus cordis, aka "conus cordis"
Which portion of the bulbus cordis bulges to form most of the R ventricle? the proximal portion (trabeculated)
Which division of the early heart forms the L ventricle? The ventricle division
Which division of the early heart stays constricted through developement/never dilates? the Atrioventricular canal (AV valves)
From which division of the early heart are the L/R atria formed? Uhhhh....the Atrium division?
This division of the early heart recieves blood and is held in place by the "septum transversum" The sinus venosus, which also developes R/L horns
From which Atrium does the sinus venosus extend? The sinus venosus extends from the R atrium
Which divisions of the early heart grow rapidly to cause the "bulboventricular loop"? The bulbus cordis and the ventricle divisions grow the length faster than the space allowed, causing folding. The Atrium and Sinus Venosus end up in a dorsal position.
What divides the AV canal into L/R? "endocardial cushions" from dorsal/ventral walls
how many septa partition the Atrium? Two, the septum primum (from roof of atrium), and the septum secundum (R of primum).
This atrial septum has two foramen: The ostium(foramen) primum and secundum are found in the septum primum. The ostium primum will dissapear with growth, while the ostium secundum is formed by apoptosis
what is the name of the foramen through the septum secundum? the foramen ovale, which is not in line with the ostium secundum, but will open a passage with pressure.
Which horn of the sinus venosus receives blood from the head/neck (sup. vena cava) and the placenta/caudal regions (inf vena cava)? The right horn of the sinus venosus recieves blood
As the R horn of the sinus venosus incoorporates into the atrial wall, what is the name given to the smooth part of the wall formed? the Sinus Venarum becomes the smooth part of the wall of the R atrium
What is the name of the junction between the sinus venosus and the primordial atrium? the crista terminalis
What does the left horn of the sinus venosus become? the L horn of the sinus venosus becomes the coronary sinus
If the R atrium receives blood from the sup/inf vena cava, what blood vessels incorporate into the L atrium? 4 primordial pulmonary veins incorporate into the L atrium
What is the anatomy of the primordial interventricular septum? it is a muscular ridge, w/ a membranous/thin section, extending as a midline from the apex to seperate the ventricles.
how do the ventricular walls lateral to the septum dilate? through apoptosis and proliferation
what two objects close the interventricular foramen? the bulbar ridges of the bulbis cordis(these spiral), and the endocardial cushions
where do the L/R ventricles open to? R ventricle opens to pulmonary trunk, L to aorta
Bulbar and truncul ridges help to parition the bulbus cordis and the truncus arteriosus. What are these ridges derived from? The bulbar and truncual ridges are derived from the neural crest
As the bulbar/truncal ridges spiral 180 degrees, what septum do they form? the spiraling ridges form the "spiral aorticopulmonary septum", which separates the aorta and the pulmonary trunk
What atrial septal defect occurs through failure of the septum primum/secundum to form? Common atrium
where is "patent foramen ovale" located? it is a defect of the ostium secundum due to faulty septum primum/secundum. Patent = open
what causes "ostium primum defects, and what is the result? ostium primum defects are caused by incomplete fusion of endocardial cushions. This causes a patent foramen primum and a cleft in the AV valve
which ventricular septal defect is the most common? defect in the membranous ventricular septum is most commmon
what is the result of a muscular ventricular septal defect? multiple small openenings caused by excess cavitation(apoptosis?) during wall formation
what is the name for a common vessel draining the heart, and supplying systemic/pulmonary/coronary circulation? this is persistent truncus arteriosus, caused by failure of the truncul ridges/aorticopulmonary septum formation
what ALWAYS accompanies persistent truncus arteriosus? a ventricular septal defect
what is the most common cause of cyanotic heart disease? transposition of the great vessels, which may be due to a failure of the aorticopulmonary septum to spiral in formation, causing loops in blood flow
what other defects accompany transposition of the great vessels? atrial septal defects, and open ductus arteriosus, allowing o2 delivery to systemic circulation
What is the result of unequal division of the truncus arteriosus? IV septal defect/faulty partitioning of the ventricles may include stenosis of the valves
How does pulmonary valve stenosis affect the R ventricle? the R ventricle hypertrophies, because it is trying to push more blood through a smaller vessel.
what is the most common abnormality in the conotruncal region? Tetralogy of Fallot Tetra = Four
What are the four defects associated with Tetralogy of Fallot? pulmonary stenosis (narrow valve), ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta (oversized, can collect blood from both V's), and right ventricular hypertrophy
