Q

Describe the steps in formation of laryngotracheal tube

A

1 - laryngotracheal groove develops in caudal foregut, inferior to 4th PA
2 - groove evaginates to form the laryngotracheal diverticulum
3 - diverticulum elongates and is invested w/ splanchnic mesoderm
4 - distal end of diverticulum = respiratory bud (origin of respiratory. tree)
5 - tracheoesophageal folds fuse and form the tracheoesophageal septum all while above is happening

Q

Name the steps in larynx development

A

1) mesenchyme swelling appear at cranial end of LTT (arytenoids)
2) arytenoids convert primordial glottis into a T shaped laryngeal inlet
3) inlet closes via epithelium proliferation
4) inlet recanalizes
5) inlet creates a laryngeal vestibule and epiglottis appears

Study These Flashcards
A

splanchnic mesenchyme

25
Describe the steps of lung development from the LTT
1) distal end of laryngotracheal diverticulum enlarges to form the respiratory bud (wk 4) 2) bud grown ventrocaudally and bifurcates 3) during 5th week 1ry bronchi -> 2ndry bronchi -> 3ry bronchi 4) bronchopulmonary segments appear by wk 7
26
What regulates the branching pattern of the developing lungs?
splanchnic mesenchyme
27
When do you start to see 1,2,3ry bronchi
5th week
28
When do bronchopulmonary segments form?
7th week
29
What is a tracheoespohageal fistula?
abnormal connx b/w trachea and esophagus (lower respiratory tract) -assoc. w/ esophageal atreasia
30
What causes a tracheoesophageal fistula?
result of failure of foregut endoderm to proliferate rapidly enough in relation to developing embryo
31
Presenting symptoms of a tracheoesophageal fistula?
- cannot swallow - drool - immediate regurgitation - polyhydramnios (amniotic fluid cannot enter stomach to be recycled via placenta)
32
what are the stages of lung maturation?
pseudo glandular -> canalicular -> terminal sac -> alveolar
33
What characterizes the pseudo glandular stage?
5-17 weeks - looks like exocrine gland - all major structures except gas exchange ones - NOT SURVIVABLE
34
What characterizes the canalicular stage?
``` 16-25 weeks -vascularization -respiratory bronchioles -1ry alveolar and sacs present (primitive alveoli) MAY OR MAY NOT SURVIVE ```
35
What characterizes the terminal sac stage?
``` 24 weeks -birth -numerous alveoli -thin epic, high vascularization -Type 1 & 2 pnumeocytes ; lymph capillaries GAS EXCHANGE CAN OCCUR ``` SURVIVABLE
36
What is a major determinant of fetal survivability in lung maturation stage?
-development of capillaries more capillary development = high survivability
37
What characterizes the alveolar stage?
32 weeks - 8 years - alveolocapillary membrane - primitive alveoli form more primitive alveoli - mature alveoli
38
Alveolar development is largely completed by what year of life?
3
39
What does splanchnic mesoderm create in the developing bronchial/resp bud?
1) cartilaginous plates (bronchial) 2) bronchial SM & CT 3) pulmonary CT and capillaries
40
What are fetal breathing movements?
intermittent patterns that conditions respiratory m -> essential for lung development causes: inspiration of amniotic fluid * early predictor if fetal outcome in preterm delivery
41
What is laryngeal atresia?
RARE | -obstruction of upper fetal airway (CHAOS)
42
What causes laryngeal atresia?
failure of recanalization of laryngeal inlet
43
What are symptoms of laryngeal atresia?
lungs enlarged ; dilated airways -> filled with fluid diaphragm flattened or inverted ; fetal ascites or hydros
44
What is pulmonary agenesis?
complete absence of a lung to lobe and accompanying bronchi
45
What causes pulmonary agenesis?
respiratory bud fails to split into R/L bronchial buds
46
What is Oligohydramnios?
insufficient amniotic fluid production (<500 ml) severe = retards lung development
47
what is oligohydramnios assoc. with?
renal agenesis/failure in fetus
48
Pulmonary hypoplasia is a result of?
restriction on fetal thorax due to uterine pressure - dec. hydronic pressure on lungs - affects stretch receptors and lung growth exacerbated by oligohydroamnios < 26 wks
49
What is oligohydramnios (potter's) sequence?
atypical physical appearance if baby due to oligohydramnios when in utero - clubbed feet ; pulmonary hypoplasia ; cranial anomalies ; limb hypoplasia
50
What is respiratory distress syndrome?
rapid, labored breathing developed shortly after birth major cause: surfactant deficiency -50-70% of premie deaths
51
What are the mechanisms behind respiratory distress syndrome?
lungs under inflated ; alveoli filled with fluid that resembles glassy membrane -irrev. changes in type 2 cells making them incapable of producing surfactant
52
What are symptoms of RDS?
- tachypnea, nasal flaring - suprasternal, intercostal, subcostal retractions - grunting - cyanosis
53
What are congenital lung cysts?
cause : formed by dilation of terminal bronchioles - filled with fluid/air - disturbance of bronchial deep. during late fetal life
54
Symptoms of congenital lung cysts?
wheezing cyanosis difficulty breathing
55
What is developed by week 4 ?
respiratory diverticulum -> resp. bud
56
What is developed by week 5?
tracheoespohageal folds -> septum | 1ry bronchi -> 2ndry ->3ry
57
When are terminal bronchioles developed?
week 16
58
What is developed by week 28?
respiratory bronchioles, 1st terminal sacs
59
What is developed by week 36?
terminal sacs -> mature alveoli
