Dev of Cardiac System Flashcards
What dermal layer gives rise to the cardiogenic area?
mesoderm
What week do the heart tubes join blood vessels in the embryo, connecting stalk and yolk sac to form the primitive cardiovascular system?
3rd week
When does the blood start to circulate?
4th week
When does the heart begin to beat?
22-23 day
Cardiovascular system is the first system to reach a functional state?
true
What does the right vitelline vein give rise to?
hepatic portal system and part of the IVC
What does the left vitelline vein give rise to?
IVC and ductus venosus
What does the ductus venosus connect?
the umbilical vein and the IVC, bypassing the liver
What is the function of the umbilical vein?
run on each side of the liver and carry oxygenated blood from placenta to the sinus venosus
What happens to the right umbilical vein?
Disappears during the 7th week
What part of the umbilical vein actually becomes the umbilical vein?
Caudal part of the left umbilical vein
What is the main venous drainage system in the embryo?
Cardinal veins
What are the earliest veins to develop?
Anterior and posterior cardinal veins at 8 weeks
What function do the vitelline veins do?
return poorly oxygenated blood from the umbilical vesicle
What function do the umbilical veins have?
Carry well-oxygenated blood from the chorion
What function do the common cardinal veins have?
return poorly oxygenated blood from the body of the embryo
What is the earliest sign of the development of the heart?
appearance of paired endothelial strands - angioblastic cords - in the cardiogenic mesoderm.
What happens to the umbilical veins when the liver develops?
They lose their connection with the heart and empty into the liver.
What happens to the anterior cardinal veins?
Connected by anastamosis which shunts blood from the left to the right anterior cardinal vein.
What does the anastomotic shunt of the anterior cardinal veins become?
brachiocephalic vein
What veins form the SVC?
Right anterior and right common cardinal vein
What do the posterior cardinal veins develop into?
Vessels of the primitive kidney and common iliac veins
What do the supra cardinal veins give rise to?
part of the IVC, contribute to formation of right internal and external jugular vein, left subclavian vein, internal and external iliac veins.
What are the posterior cardinal veins replaced by?
sub and supracardinal veins
What do the sub cardinal veins give rise to?
appear first and become left renal vein and gonadal veins
What veins contribute to the IVC?
vitelline, subcardinal, and supracardinal
What veins give rise to the Hepatic segment of the IVC
proximal part of the right vitelline vein
What veins give rise to the pre renal segment of the IVC?
right sub cardinal vein
What veins give rise to the renal segment of the IVC?
sub/supracardinal veins
What veins give rise to the post renal segment of the IVC?
right supra cardinal vein
What are the last pair of vessels to develop?
supracardinal veins
How many vitelline arteries are there and where are they?
3, pass to yolk sac and primitive gut
What is the function of the umbilical arteries?
carry poorly oxygenated blood to the placenta
What do the umbilical arteries give rise to after birth?
proximal part- internal iliac arteries
distal part-medial umbilical ligament
When do the coronary vessels develop?
5th week
