25
What happens to AA III?
main feeder to head, forms common carotid and proximal portion of internal carotid remainder becomes dorsal aorta sprouts to form external carotid
26
What happens to AA IV? Left? Right?
hypertrophies Left - forms part of aortic arch (2nd part) Right - proximal part of subclavian A
27
What insures connection of left AA IV to left ventricle?
spiral septum of outflow tract
28
What forms the aortic arch in the newborn?
Aortic sac, AA IV, left dorsal aorta proximal to 7th intersegmental, left dorsal aorta distal to 7th intersegmental
29
What happens to AA V?
never forms
30
What happens to AA VI?
pulmonary arteries (along with aortic sac)
31
Where does the heart start to grow?
cervical region
32
Where does the heart end up?
thorax
33
What causes the laryngeal nerve to become hooked around the future right subclavian?
regression of distal part of right AA VI (loss of connection to right dorsal aorta)
34
What is the connection between the dorsal aorta and AA VI called on the left?
ductus arteriosus
35
What nerve is hooked around the distal AA VI?
recurrent laryngeal N
36
What happens to the left distal AA VI?
ligamentum arteriosum
37
What happens to the dorsal aorta?
``` carotid duct (portion between AA III & AA IV) disappears. Right dorsal aorta disappears btwn right 7th intersegmental A and junction with left dorssal aorta. remaining segments fuse to form descending thoracic and abdominal aorta. ```
38
What do the vitelline arteries form?
GI vasculature
39
What do umbilical arteries form?
developing bladder arteries distal end disappear after birth and become medial umbilical ligaments proximal 5th lumbar intersegmental arteries - referred to as umbilical arteries in adult
40
What causes the ductus arteriosus to close after birth? When does it close?
changes in blood oxygen tension, sudden drop in prostaglandin, increase in endothelin release from newborn lungs. 10-15 hours after birth
41
Patent ductus arteriosus
1/3-1/2 blood traveling via aorta will enter pulmonary artery b/c systemic BP is higher. blood will circulate 2-3 times. LV hypertrophy. Pulmonary congestion and CHF. Blowing murmur after 1-3 years.
42
What increases the risk for patent ductus arteriosus?
maternal rubella infection during early pregnancy
43
What is the treatment for patent ductus arteriosus?
prostiglandin inhibitors (indomethacin) or surgery
44
What is coarctation of the aorta?
narrowed aortic lumen below left subclavian A due to abnormal thickening of aortic wall
45
____ is more frequent in Turner's syndrome.
Coarctation of the aorta
46
postductal coarctation of the aorta
sometimes not noticed b/c collateral circulation is established through intercostal arteries
47
preductal coarctation of the aorta
collaterals not well developed, little or no blood to lower body and legs unless ductus arteriosus remains open (and even then O2 poor from RV). Death if severe w/o surgery.
48
What forms wrong in aberrant origin of right heart? What disappears? Symptoms? Why?
subclavian formed by distal portion of right dorsal aorta and 7th intersegmental A instead of 7th intersegmental A and right AA IV Right AA IV and right dorsal aorta disappear symptoms: dysphagia and dyspnea right dorsal aorta crosses esophagus to right UE
49
What causes double aortic arch? | Symptoms?
vascular ring surrounding trachea and esophagus | symptoms: esophageal dysfunction and strangulation of trachea
50
What causes right aortic arch? symptoms? What causes symptoms?
left AA IV and left dorsal aorta gone and replaced with right symptoms: dysphagia and dyspnea if left subclavian A passes behind esophagus and ligamentum arteriosum passes in front of trachea
51
What causes interrupted aortic arch? What is this associated with? Is it life threatening?
AA IV disappears and proximal part of right dorsal aorta disappears ductus arteriosus remains open low O2 in descending aorta and subclavian As DiGeorge syndrome yes
52
What do the vitelline veins drain?
yolk sac
53
What do the vitelline veins form?
vascular plexus hepatic sinusoids within liver primordia
54
What does the right proximal vitelline vein turn into?
right hepatic cardiac channel then terminal part of inferior vena cava
55
What does the left proximal vitelline vein turn into?
nothing, disappears
56
What does the left inferior vitelline vein turn into?
portal vein, superior and inferior mesenteric veins, splenic veins
57
What is the function of the umbilical veins?
carry oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetal heart
58
What is the channel between the left umbilical vein and right hepatocardiac channel?
ductus venosus
59
What is the function of the ductus venosus?
oxygenated blood bypasses sinoidal plexus of liver
60
What keeps the ductus venosus open?
prostaglandins
61
What happens to the left umbilical vein and ductus venosus after birth?
disappears forming ligamentum teres hepatis and ligamentum venosum
62
What drains the blood from the head and neck into the cardinal veins on the right side?
anastamoses between left and right anterior cardinal veins
63
What does the anterior cardinal vein form?
anastomoses between right and left - left brachiocephalic vein right common cardinal vein - SVC
64
What makes the coronary sinus?
left cardinal vein and left sinus horn
65
What can abnormal anterior cardinal vein development lead to?
superior vena cava draining into the heart via coronary sinus
66
What do the posterior cardinal veins connect?
subcardinal and supracardinal veins
67
What do the subcardinal veins form?
kidney and gonal veins, abdominal IVC
68
Whta do the supracardinal veins form?
portions of IVC, azygos system, and veins draining body wall
