26
The cranial ridges-the __ __-are located superior to the developing lungs, and the caudal ridges- the __ __- are located inferior to the lungs
Pleuropericardial folds | Pleuroperitoneal folds
27
As the pleuropericardial folds enlarge, they form partitions that separate the pericardial cavity fromt he pleural cavities. What are the partitions called
Pleuropericardial membranes
28
What do pleuropericardial membranes contain
Common cardinal veins , which drain the venous system into the sinus venosus of the primordial heart
29
Initially the bronchial buds are small relative to the heart and pericardial cavity.
Ok
30
They grow laterally from the caudal end of the trachea into the ___ ___
Pericardioperitoneal canals
31
As the primordial pleural cavities expand ventrally around the heart, they extend into the body wall, splitting the mesenchyme into two layers
An outer later that becomes the thoracic wall An inner layer (pleuropericardial membrane) that becomes the fibrous pericardium, the outer layer of the pericardial sac that encloses the heart
32
The pleuropericardial membranes project into the cranial ends of the pericardioperitoneal canals
With subsequent growth of the common cardinal veins, positional displacement of the heart and expansion of the pleural cavities , the pleuropericardial membranes become mesentery-like folds extending fromt he lateral thoracic wall
33
By the seventh week, the pleuropericardial membranes fuse with the mesenchyme ventral to the esophagus, separating the pericardial cavity from the pleural cavities
The primordial mediastinum consists of a mass of mesenchyme that extends from the sternum to the vertebral column, separating the developing lungs
34
The right pleuropericardial opening closes slightly earlier than the left one and produces a larger __ __-
Pleuropericardial membrane
35
The pleuroperitoneal folds enlarge, they project into the ___ __
Pericardioperitoneal canals
36
Gradually, the folds become membranous , forming the ___ ___
Pleuroperitoneal membranes
37
Eventually, these membranes separate the pleural cavities from the peritoneal cavity.
The pleuroperitoneal membranes are produced as the developing lungs and pleural cavities expand and invade the body wall. They are attached dorsolaterally to the abdominal wall and their crescentic free edges initially project into the caudal ends of the pericardioperitoneal canals
38
During the 6th week, the pleuroperitoneal membranes extend ventromedial until their free edges fuse with the dorsal mesentery of the esophagus and the __ __
Septum transversum
39
The pleuroperitoneal membranes separates the pleural cavities from the peritoneal cavity
Closure of. The pleuroperitoneal openings is completed by the migration of myoblasts into the pleuroperitoneal membranes
40
The pleuroperitoneal opening on the r__side closes slightly before the __ one
Right left
41
The diaphragm is a
Dome shaped , musculotendinous partition that separates the thoracic and abdominal cavities
42
The diaphragm develops from four embryonic components
Septum transversum Pleuroperitoneal membranes Dorsal mesentery esophagus Muscular ingrowth from the lateral body walls
43
This transverse septum , which is composed of mesodermal tissue, is the primordium of the central tendon of the ___
Diaphragm
44
The septum transversum grows dorsally from the ventrolateral body wall and forms a semicircular shelf that separates the heart from the __
Liver
45
After the head folds ventrally during the fourth week, the septum transversum forms a thick, incomplete connective tissue partition between the pericardial and abdominal cavities
The septum transversum expands and fuses with the mesenchyme ventral to the esophagus and the pleuroperitoneal membranes
46
These membranes fuse with the dorsal mesentery of the esophagus and the septum transversum
This fusion completes the partition between the thoracic and abdominal cavities and forms the primordial diaphragm
47
The pleuroperitoneal membranes represent relatively small portions of the neonates ___
Diaphragm
48
The septum transversum and pleuroperitoneal membranes fuse with the dorsal mesentery of the ___
Esophagus
49
During the 9th and 12th weeks, the lungs and pleural cavities enlarge, burrowing into the lateral body walls. During this process , the tissue of the body wall is split into two layers. What are they
External layer that becomes part of the definitive abdominal wall An internal layer that contributes to the peripheral parts of the diaphragm , external to the parts derived fromt he pleuroperitoneal membranes
50
Further extension of the developing pleural cavities into the lateral body walls forms the right and left __ ___, establishing the characteristic dome-shaped configuration of the diaphragm
Costodiaphragmetic recesses
51
During the fourth week of development, the septum transversum lies opposite the third and did the ___ ___
Cervical somites
52
During the fifth week, myoblasts from these somites migrate into the developing diaphragm, bringing their nerve fibers with them
Ok
53
Consequently, the __ nerves that supply motor innervation to the diaphragm arise fromt he ventral primary rami of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th cervical spinal nerves, which join together on each side to form a phrenic nerve
Phrenic
54
The phrenic nerve also supply sensory fibers to the superior and inferior surfaces of the right and left domes of the ___
Diaphragm
55
Rapid growth of the dorsal part of the embryo;s body results in an ___ ___ of the diaphragm
Apparent descent
56
By the sixth week, the developing diaphragm is at the level of the __ ___
Thoracic somites
57
The phrenic nerves now have a __ course
Descending
58
By the beginning of the _ week, the dorsal part of the diaphragm lies at the level of the first lumbar vertebra
8
59
The phrenic nerves in the embryo enter the diaphragm by passing through the ___ ___
Pleuropericardial membranes
60
For this reason, the phrenic nerves subsequently lie on the fibrous pericardium of the heart, which is derived from the pleuropericardial membranes
The costal border of the diaphragm receives sensory fibers from the lower intercostal nerves because of the origin of the peripheral part of the diaphragm from the lateral body walls
61
Posterolateral defect of the diaphragm is the only relatively common congenital anomaly involving the ___
Diaphragm
62
Posterolateral diaphragmetic defects occur in 1/3000 neonates ___ ___ ___
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia
