Lies on dorsal aspect of embryonic disc. Amniotic fluid • Volume 12 weeks – 50 ml 20 weeks- 400 ml 37 weeks- 800ml-1 liter Amniocentesis – study of fetal karyotype for anomalies Embryo at 8 weeks Functions : • Is vital for healthy fetal development. • It contains important nutrients, hormones, and antibodies and it helps protect the baby from bumps and injury. Abnormalities • Polyhydramnios >2000 ml – Abnormal digestive system or CNS , esophageal atresia, Anencephaly • Oligohydramnios <500 ml – Abnormal urinary system, poor development of kidney, Urethra atresia Exocoelomic cavity, or primitive yolk sac Day-9 • Mean while, at abembryonic pole, hypoblast cells form a thin membrane, the exocoelomic (Heuser’s) membrane, • That lines the inner surface of the cytotrophoblast. • This membrane, together with the hypoblast, forms the lining of the exocoelomic cavity, or primitive yolk sac. Extraembryonic mesoderm • Cells from the hypoblast migrate & give rise to a layer of loosely arranged tissue called extraembryonic mesoderm around the amnion & primary yolk sac. • Isolated cavities appear in this extraembryonic mesoderm which soon coalesce to form the extraembryonic or chorionic coelom. Extraembryonic mesoderm –division • As the extraembryonic cavity develops, mesoderm splits into 2 layers. • The part lining the inside of the trophoblast & the outside of the amniotic cavity is called the somatopleuric extraembryonic mesoderm. • The part lining the outside of the yolk sac is called the splanchnopleuric extraembryonic mesoderm. Secondary yolk sac • As the extraembryonic coelom forms, the primary yolk sac decreases in size & a small Secondary Yolk Sac is formed. • A small remnant called exocoelomic vesicle gradually disintegrates. Functions – • Primary yolk sac allows transport of fluid from trophoblast to embryo • Blood vessels first form in its wall. • Primordial germ cells arise from its caudal end. • It forms the dorsal wall of gastro intestinal tract. Changes in trophoblast Outer layer of blastocyst made up of a single layer of cells, trophoblast. • It differentiates into 2 layers. • Cytotrophoblast - Cell margins are well defined, nuclei are round & cytoplasm is lightly stained. • Synciotrophoblast - cells are dark basophilic, with dark multi nucleated cells & cell margins are not well defined Changes in trophoblast • Lacunar stage—10-11 days • Syncytiotrophoblast multiplies, spaces develop in it called lacunae. • Thus forms Utero plancetal circulation stage—11-12 days • The syncytiotrophoblast invade the maternal blood vessels in endometrium, blood starts filling & flows through lacunar network. Chorion • The extra embryonic mesoderm, cyto & syncytiotrophoblast (from outside in) is called chorion. • Extra embryonic coelom is now named chorionic cavity & surrounds amniotic cavity & yolk sac. • Extra-embryonic coelom does not extend that part connects the embryo to trophoblast by a connecting stalk that becomes future umbilical cord Chorionic villi Day 13 Syncytio trophoblast secretes Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). This maintains corpus luteum of pregnancy till placenta develops. • The finger-like processes arise from chorion called chorionic villi. • They develop into primary, secondary & tertiary villi. • At the stage of formation of bilaminar disc, only primary chorionic villi are seen at the end of 2nd week. • Primary villus showing a core of cytotrophoblastic cells covered by a layer of syncytium. Chorionic villi • Secondary villus - with a core of mesoderm covered by a single layer of mesoderm & cytotrophoblastic cells, which in turn is covered by syncytium. • Tertiary villus – formed at end of the third week, small blood vessels, appear in mesoderm forming the villous capillary system. • Tertiary and secondary stem villi give the trophoblast a characteristic radial appearance. • Intervillous spaces filled with maternal blood CHORIONIC VILLI SBA Embryo is formed by 1.

    BIOL 6505 − INTRODUCTION TO FETAL MEDICINE 3. EMBRYOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT Arlet G. Kurkchubasche, M.D. INTRODUCTION Embryology – the field of study that pertains to the developing organism/human Basic embryology –usually taught in the chronologic sequence of events. These events are the basis for understanding the congenital anomalies that we encounter in the fetus, and help explain the relationships to other organ system concerns. Below is a synopsis of some of the critical steps in embryogenesis from the anatomic rather than molecular basis. These concepts will be more intuitive and evident in conjunction with diagrams and animated sequences. This text is a synopsis of material provided in Langman’s Medical Embryology, 9th ed. First week – ovulation to fertilization to implantation Fertilization restores 1) the diploid number of chromosomes, 2) determines the chromosomal sex and 3) initiates cleavage. Cleavage of the fertilized ovum results in mitotic divisions generating blastomeres that form a 16-cell morula. The dense morula develops a central cavity and now forms the blastocyst, which restructures into 2 components. The inner cell mass forms the embryoblast and outer cell mass the trophoblast. Consequences for fetal management: Variances in cleavage, i.e. splitting of the zygote at various stages/locations - leads to monozygotic twinning with various relationships of the fetal membranes. Cleavage at later weeks will lead to conjoined twinning. Second week: the week of twos – marked by bilaminar germ disc formation. Commences with blastocyst partially embedded in endometrial stroma Trophoblast forms – 1) cytotrophoblast – mitotic cells that coalesce to form 2) syncytiotrophoblast – erodes into maternal tissues, forms lacunae which are critical to development of the uteroplacental circulation.

  • Paraxial Mesoderm)
    By DR. SANAA ALSHAARAWY DR. ESSAM ELDIN SALAMA OBJECTIVES : At the end of the lecture, the student should be able to describe : Changes in the bilaminar germ disc (embryonic plate). Formation of the secondary embryonic mesoderm (intraembryonic mesoderm). Formation of trilaminar germ disc. Formation of the primitive streake & notochord. Differantiation of intra-embryonic mesoderm. Implantation of the blastocyst is completed by the end of the 2nd week . As this process occurs, changes occur in the embryoblast that produce a bilaminar embryonic disc. The embryonic disc gives rise to the germ layers that form all tissues & organs of the embryo. Extraembryonic structures forming during the 2nd week are : the amniotic cavity, amnion, yolk sac, and connecting stalk. By the (8th) day: The Inner Cell Mass (Embryoblast)is differentiated into a bilaminar plate of cells composed of Two layers : (A) Epiblast High columnar cells adjacent to the amniotic cavity. (B) Hypoblast Small cuboidal cells adjacent to the blastocyst cavity (Yolk Sac). A loose connective tissue, arises from the yolk sac. It fills all the space between the trophoblast externally and the exocoelomic membrane & amnion internally. It surrounds the amnion and yolk sac. Multiple spaces appear within the Extraembryonic mesoderm. These spaces fuse and form the Extraembryonic Coelom. It surrounds the amnion and yolk sac. It is the process through which the Bilaminar embryonic disc is changed into a Trilaminar disc, as a new tissue (2ry or intraembryonic mesoderm) appears between the ectoderm and endoderm. Now the embryonic disc is formed of 3 layers: Embryonic Ectoderm Intraembryonic Mesoderm. Embryonic Endoderm. Cells in these layers will give rise to all tissues and organs of the embryo.
