Transcript
• Development of Blood Vessels
• Blood vessel formation (angiogenesis)
starts at the beginning of the third week.
• Blood vessels first start to develop in the
extraembryonic mesoderm of the yolk sac,
connecting stalk, and chorion.
• Blood vessels begin to develop in the
embryo about two days later.
• Production of Blood
• Production of blood (hemopoiesis or
hematopoiesis) begins first in the yolk sac wall
about the third week of development.
• Erythrocytes produced in the yolk sac have
nuclei. Blood formation does not begin inside
the embryo until about the fifth week.
• Erythrocytes produced in the embryo do not
have nuclei (eunucleated). Hematopoiesis
inside in the embryo occurs first in the liver, then
later in the spleen, thymus, and bone marrow.
• Vitelline circulation refers to the system
of blood flowing from the embryo to the
yolk sac and back again.
• The yolk-sac is situated on the ventral
aspect of the embryo; it is lined by
endoderm, outside of which is a layer of
mesoderm.
• It is filled with fluid, the vitelline fluid, which
possibly may be utilized for the
nourishment of the embryo during the
earlier stages of its existence.
• Blood is conveyed to the wall of the
sac by the primitive aortæ, and after
circulating through a wide-meshed
capillary plexus, is returned by the
vitelline veins to the tubular heart of
the embryo.
• This constitutes the vitelline
circulation, and by means of it
nutritive material is absorbed from the
yolk-sac and conveyed to the embryo.
• Cardinal veins
• Cardinal veins Scheme of arrangement of
parietal veins.
• During development of the veins, the first
indication of a parietal system consists in the
appearance of two short transverse veins, the
ducts of Cuvier, which open, one on either side,
into the sinus venosus.
• Each of these ducts receives an ascending and
descending vein.
• The ascending veins return the blood from the
parietes(hollow organs) of the trunk and from the
Wolffian bodies, and are called cardinal veins.
• Oxygenated blood returns from the placenta by
the umbilical vein.
• Half of the blood passes through the liver
whereas the other half bypasses the liver by the
ductus venosus.
• Blood enters into the inferior vena cava and then
the right atrium of the heart.
• This blood is now partially deoxygenated
because it is mixed with returning blood from the
lower portion of the body and the abdominal
organs.
• Most of the blood in the right atrium passes
through the foramen ovale into the left atrium
and mixes with the blood returning from the
lungs (deoxygenated).
• From the left atrium, blood passes
into the left ventricle and the
ascending aorta.
• Arteries to the heart, head and neck,
and upper limbs receive welloxygenated blood.
• A small amount of blood from the right
atrium mixes with blood from the
superior vena cava and coronary
sinus.
• It passes into the right ventricle and
leaves via the pulmonary trunk.
• Most of it passes into the
ductus arteriosus into the
aorta. A small amount passes
into the lungs.
• 50% of the blood passes via
the umbilical arteries into the
placenta for reoxygenation, the
rest supplies the viscera and
the inferior 1/2 of the body.
• After birth, the foramen ovale,
ductus arteriosus, ductus
venosus and umbilical vessels
are no longer needed and they
close.
• The right ventricular wall is
thicker in the newborn but by
the end of month 1, the left
ventricular wall is thicker.
• The fetal circulation is
designed to carry oxygenated
blood from the placenta to the
fetal circulation, bypassing the
lungs.
• Changes that will result in a
normal adult circulation occurs
during infancy.
• Defects will commonly involve
• CARDIOVASCULAR
EMBRYOLOGY
• The cardiovascular system begins
to develop during week 3.
• Mesenchymal cells derived from
the mesoderm form endothelial
tubes which join to form the
primitive vascular system.
• HEART DEVELOPMENT (WEEK 3)
• Heart develops from splanchnic
mesenchyme in the cardiogenic area.
• Bilateral cardiogenic cords are formed
from the mesenchyme become canalized
• and form the paired endocardial heart
tubes
• These fuse into a single heart tube
forming the primitive heart
• Surrounding mesenchyme thicken to form
the myoepicardial mantle (future
myocardium and epicardium) separated
from the endothelial heart tube (future
endocardium) by the gelatinous cardiac
jelly.
• The future heart develops dilatations and
constrictions resulting in 4 chambers
• sinus venosus
• primordial atrium
• ventricle
• bulbus cordis
• The truncus arteriosus is
continuous caudally with the
bulbus cordis, and enlarges
cranially to form the aortic sac
from which the aortic arches
arise
• The sinus venosus receives
(the umbilical veins from the
chorion.
• the vitelline veins from the
yolk sac
• the common cardinal veins
from the embryo.
• 3 systems of paired veins
drain into the primitive heart:
• the vitelline system will
become the portal system;
• the cardinal veins will
become the caval system;
• the umbilical system which
degenerates after birth
• The bulbus cordis and the ventricle grow
faster and the heart bends upon itself,
forming a bulboventricular loop.
• The atrium and sinus venosus come to lie
dorsal to the bulbus cordis, truncus
arteriosus and ventricle.
• At the same time, the heart invaginates
into the pericardial cavity.
• The dorsal mesocardium which attaches
it to the dorsal wall of the pericardial cavity
degenerates and forms the tranverse
pericardial sinus
• First heartbeat occurs at
21 to 22 days and
originates in the muscle,
forming peristalsis-like
waves beginning in the
sinus venosus.
• By the end of week 4 coordinated contractions of
the heart results in unidirectional flow:
• Blood enters the sinus venosus from the
vitelline, cardinal and umbilical veins.
• Blood flows into the primitive ventricle;
• Upon ventricular contraction, blood flows into the
bulbus cordis and the truncus arteriosus into the
aortic sac, passing into the aortic arches and
branchial arches;
• Blood then passes to the dorsal aortae for
distribution to the embryo, yolk sac and
placenta.
•The heart divides into
4-chambered heart
between weeks 4 and
7.
• Endocardial cushions
form on the dorsal and
ventral walls of the
atrioventricular canal.
• At week 5, they approach
each other and fuse,
dividing the atrioventricular
canal into right and left
• Atria are partitioned successively
by the septum primum and the
septum secundum.
• The latter is an incomplete
partition and leaves a foramen
ovale.
• The foramen ovale has a valve
formed from the degeneration of
the cranial portion of the septum
primum.
• Before birth the foramen ovale
allows blood to pass from the
right atrium into the left atrium;
reflux is prevented by the
valve.
• After birth the foramen ovale
normally closes by fusion of
the septum primum and the
septum secundum.
• The sinus venosus develops a left horn
which becomes the coronary sinus and a
right horn which will be incorporated into
the right atrium.
• The smooth part of the right atrium, the
sinus venarum, is derived from the sinus
venosus whereas the muscular part, the
auricle, is derived from the primitive
atrium.
• The 2 portions are separated internally by
the crista terminalis and externally by the
sulcus terminalis.
• The primitive pulmonary vein
and its 4 main branches become
partially incorporated into the left
atrium.
• This results in the 4 pulmonary
veins. The portion derived from
the original left atrium retains a
trabeculated apperance.
• The ventricles become partitioned by
a crescentic fold which is open
cranially until the end of week 7.
• The interventricular septum is formed
of a central membranous part and a
surrounding muscular part.
• After closure, the right ventricle
communicates with the pulmonary
trunk and the left ventricle with the
aorta.
• During week 5, the bulbus
cordis and the truncus
arteriosus become divided by
an aorticopulmonary septum
into the definitive pulmonary
trunk and aorta.
• Valves develop from
proliferation of the
subendocardial tissue.
• The primitive atrium acts as a temporary
pacemaker. But the sinus venosus soon
takes over.
• The sinuatrial (SA) node develops during
week 5. It is part of the sinus venosus
which becomes incorporated into the right
atrium.
• The atrioventricular (AV) node also
develops from the cells in the wall of the
sinus venosus together with cells from the
atrioventricular canal region.
• The critical period of development is from
day 20 to day 50 after fertilization.
• Improper partitioning of the
heart may result in defects
of the cardiac septa, of
which the ventricular septal
defects are most common
(25% of congenital heart
disease).
• Membranous ventricular septal defect
(most common):
• involves the oval membranous portion of
the interventricular septum which fails to
develop.
• is due to the failure of extensions of
subendocardial tissue growing from the
right side of the fused endocardial
cushions and fusing with the
aorticopulmonary septum and the
muscular part of the interventricular
septum.
• Muscular septal defect:
• Perforation may appear anywhere in the
muscular part of the interventricular
septum (multiple defects = Swiss cheese
type of ventricular septal defect) due
perhaps to excessive resorption of
myocardial tissue during formation of the
muscular part of the interventricular
septum.
• Absence of interventricular septum is rare
and results in a 3-chambered heart called
cor triloculare biatriatum
• The tetralogy of Fallot consists of
• pulmonary valve stenosis: the cusps of
pulmonary valve are fused together to
form a dome with a narrow central
opening.
• ventricular septal defect
• overriding aorta
• hypertrophy of right ventricle
• Cyanosis is an obvious sign but may not
be present at birth.
• Aortic arches
• When the branchial arches form
during week 4 and 5, they are
penetrated by arteries arising from
the aortic sac, which are called the
aortic arches.
• During week 6 to 8 the primitive aortic
arch pattern is transformed into the
adult arterial arrangement of carotid,
subclavian, and pulmonary arteries.
• The lymphatic system begins to develop
around week 5.
• 6 primary lymph sacs develop and later
become interconnected by lymph vessels;
• lymph nodules do not appear until just
before and/or after birth.
• Hygroma: tumor-like mass of dilated
lymphatic vessels derived from the
pinched-off portion of the jugular lymph
sac.
