Q

What are the 4 steps to making a 4-chambered heart?

A
  1. Sinus venosus and primitive atrium separate into the R and L atrium.
  2. Primitive ventricle separates from bulbus cordis to form L and R ventricle.
  3. Primitive atrium separates from primitive ventricle.
  4. Conus cordis and truncus arteriosus develop internal partitions to become the proximal aorta and pulmonary trunk.

Q

When is having a PFO a concern? What does it cause?

A

When you have increased R heart pressure. This can cause clots to skip from the R atrium straight to the L atrium, sending a clot into your arteries.

Q

What is the final key in separating the two ventricles during development?

A

Endocardial cushions, which make up the superior part of the interventricular septum and are made from the membranous portion of the interventricular septum.

Note: They also contribute to forming the pulmonary and aortic valves.

Q

Expansion of what divides the common AV canal?

A

Endocardial cushions, separating it into L&R AV canals.

Note: imagine pinching a tube vertically in the center so it makes two holes, left and right.

Q

What separates the primitive atrium and primitive ventricle from each other?

A

two endocardial cushions

Note: Imagine pinching a tube horizontally in the center, so it makes a hole above and below.

22
Q

What shape/figure am I looking for to confirm chamber separation in a pre-natal screening?

A

A cross on the US.

23
Q

What is an AV canal defect also known as?

A

Endocardial cushion defect.

24
Q

What are the two types of AV canal defects? Whats the difference?

A

Partial means a severe low ASD or high VSD with AV valves affected but still present.

Complete means AV valves are not there, so the 4 chambers of the heart are one contiguous thing.

25
Q

What kind of shunt causes cyanosis, why?

A

Right to left shunts, because RA blood is not oxygenated, so moving to the L atrium with deoxygenated blood will send mixed blood to the systemic circulation.

26
Q

Hollowing out of what forms the chordae tendineae, papillary musceles, and AV valves?

A

Mesenchyme under the AV canals.

27
Q

What 4 things make up the tetralogy of Fallot?

A
  1. Pulmonary stenosis
  2. R ventricular hypertrophy
  3. Overriding aorta
  4. VSD

Note: PROVe

28
Q

What primitive structures form the proximal aorta and pulmonary artery?

A

Conus cordis & Truncus arteriosus

29
Q

What structure splits the proximal aorta from the pulmonary artery?

A

Conotruncal ridges, which are swellings of truncuses.

30
Q

What unique pattern do the conotruncal ridges travel in from the conus cordis and truncus arteriosus to the interventricular septum?

A

Spiral pattern

31
Q

What is TGA?

A

Transposition of the great arteries.

Your aorta is now connected to the RV.
Your PA is now connected to the LV

There is also a vessel connecting the aorta and PA.

32
Q

What is truncus arteriosus?

A

Failure of the PA and aorta to fully separate, so there is a large connection between both, as well as a connection between the two ventricles.

33
Q

What are the 3 main pairs of aortic arches?

A

3, 4, 6

34
Q

What are all the aortic arches connected to?

A

Aortic sac

35
Q

What connects the aortic sac to the heart?

A

Truncus arteriosus

36
Q

What do the 3rd aortic arches become?

A

Common carotid arteries

37
Q

What do the 4th aortic arches become?

A

On the left, it is the part of the aorta between the L common carotid and L subclavian artery.

On the right, it is the part of the brachiocephalic artery before it becomes the R subclavian artery.

38
Q

What do the 6th aortic arches become?

A

It becomes the branches of the pulmonary artery that go to the lungs.

39
Q

What do the aortic sac and left dorsal aortae become?

A

Aortic sac becomes the ascending arch of the aorta & brachiocephalic artery.

Dorsal aortae becomes the descending arch of the aorta

40
Q

What happens if the right dorsal aortae doesn’t fuse?

A

Double aortic arches, forming a subclavian sling and giving us two subclavian arteries right off our aorta.

41
Q

What is coarctation of the aorta? Concerns?

A

A constricted area of the aorta, anywhere from the transverse arch to the iliac bifurcation.

98% are below the origin of the ductus arteriosus.

Mild forms are asymptomatic.

Major forms can cause severe obstruction and hypoperfusion/heart failure.

42
Q

Where do all veins empty into as a fetus?

A

Sinus venosus.

43
Q

What are the 3 main veins that we have as a fetus?

A

Vitelline veins, deoxygenated blood from yolk sac.
Cardinal veins, deoxygenated blood from the embryo.
Umbilical veins, oxygenated blood from the placenta.

44
Q

What is TAPVR?

A

Total anomalous pulmonary venous return.

All the pulmonary veins empty into the superior vena cava, so there is mixed blood entering the heart.

45
Q

Starting at the placenta, name the main pathway for blood to the pre and postductal aorta.

A

Placenta => umbilical vein => ductus venosus => IVC => RA => Foramen ovale => LA => LV => Pre-ductal aorta => post-ductal aorta & Head/upper limbs.

46
Q

What structure is the precursor to the ligamentum arteriosum?

A

Ductus arteriosus.

47
Q

Besides going through the foramen ovale and going to the LA, where else can blood go to from the RA?

A

RA => RV => Pulmonary trunk => Lungs (minor) & Ductus arteriosus.

48
Q

What brings blood to the placenta?

A

Umbilical arteries

49
Q

Where does oxygenated blood come from for a fetus?

A

Placenta

50
Q

When a fetus is born, where does most of its oxygenated blood come from? What happens as a result?

A

Lungs are expanded, so more blood from the RA goes instead to the RV to the pulmonary artery to the lungs.

The ductus venosus starts closing, since there is no placenta to receive blood from anymore.
