  • The Urogenital Sinus 1.The Anal Membrane Deepens to Form the Proctodeum
    Duodenum -The duodenum develops from the caudal part of the foregut and cranial part of the midgut . So, it is supplied by branches from both celiac and cranial mesenteric arteries. -Due to rotation of the stomach, the duodenum rotates to be located in the right side. Anomalies of duodenum: 1-Duodenal stenosis:- Narrowing of the duodenal lumen results from:- a-Incomplete recanalization of duodenum b-It may be caused by pressure from an annular pancreas. 2-Duodenal atresia:- -A short segment of duodenum is occluded due to failure of recanalization of this segment. -In fetus with duodenal atresia , vomiting begins within few hours of birth before ingestion of any fluid -Often there is distension of epigastrium resulting from overfilled stomach and upper duodenum. Liver -The liver appears as a hepatic bud from the ventral aspect of (duodenum) distal end of the foregut. -The hepatic bud is divided into two cranial and caudal. -The cranial part gives liver and hepatic duct while caudal part gives gall bladder and cystic duct. -The hepatic bud directed towards the septum transversum. - The hepatic bud differentiate into hepatic cords which invade the umbilical and vitelline veins of the septum transversum and transforms them into hepatic sinusoids. - The hepatic cords differentiate into the parenchyma and the lining of the bile duct. - The hemopiotic cells , capsule and connective tissue supporting the liver are differentiated from the mesoderm of the septum transversum. Anomalies of liver:- 1-Atresia of gall bladder This results from failure of vacuolization of the gall bladder, consequently the bladder remains atretic i.e solid.

  • A Morphological Study of the Development of the Human Liver I
    A Morphological Study of the Development of the Human Liver I. DEVELOPMENT OF THE HEPATIC DIVERTICULUM ’ CHARLES B. SEVERN2 Department of Anatomy, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan ABSTRACT The development of the hepatic diverticulum was examined in 38 human embryos representing somite stages 1, 5, 8 and 10 through 29, inclu- sive. Interpretations were based on light microscopic study of serial sections of these embryos. The liver primordium was first identified in a five-somite embryo as a flat plate of endodermal cells continuous with, but lying ventral to, the endoderm of the foregut at the anterior intestinal portal. It is positioned caudal and ventral to the developing heart. This plate of endoderm subsequently undergoes a progres- sive folding due to differential growth of adjacent structures. During the folding process there is a close spatial relationship between the cells of the endodermal plate and the caudal and ventral endothelial lining of the atrium and the sinus venosus. The result of this folding is the establishment of a “T-shaped” diver- ticulum which projects ventrally and cephalically from the gut tract. The hepatic diverticulum is established by the 20 somite-stage embryo. This mode of develop- ment of the hepatic diverticulum is compared to the classical interpretation and to the development of other visceral organs. The lack of an extensive sequential of the intrahepatic duct system, correla- series of human embryonic material has tion of the liver’s developmental pattern prevented past investigators from obtain- with its definitive architectural pattern, ing anything more than general and rather and comparison of the origin and develop- vague concepts as to how the human liver ment of the liver in various species of verte- develops.

  • Flexion and Neural Tube Formation
    Flexion and Neural Tube Formation RECOMMENDED READING: Larsen: Human Embryology 3rd edition 1. Review figures 2.4-2.6 and such text as necessary (pp 41-43 for source of definitive yolk sac and extra-embryonic coelom (cavity). 2. Pp 131-143. Text covers the formation of the intra-embryonic coelom and its division into peritoneal, pleural and pericardial cavities plus closure of the diaphragm. 3. Pp 57, Figure 3-4; pp 85-93. Text covers the transformation of the neural plate into the neural tube, the initial phases of differentiation of this tube and the origin of the neural crest. The multiple fates of neural crest derivatives will be given in other lectures. LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 1.Review information on the formation of the extra-embryonic coelom from prior lecture. Embryonic flexion and folding 2. Understand how the lateral plate mesoderm divides into somatopleure and splanchnopleure, which flex (fold) in the lateral plane and fuse ventrally. This results in the enclosure of some of the extra-embryonic coelom into the embryo. 3. Note that head/tail flexion is "driven" in part by rapid growth of the CNS and relative stiffness of notochord. 4. Understand the "accomplishments" of flexion and folding: a. Segregation of embryonic from extra-embryonic tissues except at umbilical cord. b. Enclosure the intra-embryonic coelom. c. Narrowing of the gut tube. d. Postioning of the buccopharyngeal membrane (future mouth) and cloacal membrane (future opening of urinary and gastrointestinal tracts) to a ventral position. e. "Movement" of the septum transversum and cardiogenic tissues ventrally. Formation of and closure of the neural tube, division into primary brain vesicles and origin of neural crest.

  • A Human Embryo of Carnegie Stage 13
    A Human Embryo of Carnegie Stage 13 Young-il Hwang' and Ka Young Chang = A bst rac t =A human embryo obtained from a salpinx resected for the treatment of an ectopic gestation was serially sectioned and observed. Four chambers of the heart were well delineated, though not completely separated. The dorsal pancreas was observed while the ventral pancreas was not yet formed. It was hard to clear- ly demarcate the cecal area because of no obvious dilatation. The septum transversum was nearly completely occupied by the hepatic parenchyme. The gall bladder-cyctic duct primordium was also observed. The intestine distal to the duodenum was attached to the posterior body wall by a prominent dorsal mesen- tery. The respiratory tree showed primary bronchi, and no mesenchymal differen- tiation around the tree was achieved yet. The mesonephric system showed vari- able developmental features depending on their location in the body. The mesonephric duct was already connected to the cloaca, and some localized dilata- tion of the duct surrounded by mesenchyrnal condensation, which would become the metanephric blastema, foretold the formation of the ureteric bud. The otocyst had been completely separated from the skin ectoderm and the endolymphatic duct had begun to form. Eye primordium observed was the optic cup. The well established lense placode impended to invaginate. Although this embryo showed a few characteristics of stage 14, it may be reasonable to regard this embryo as an older member of stage 13, conbidering the overall developmental status.

  • Early Gut Tube & Mesenteric Attachments
    Early Gut Tube & Mesenteric Attachments Gross Anatomy > Digestive System > Digestive System GI & MESENTERY ORGANIZATION ~ Weeks 4 through 6 Three embryologic divisions of the thoracic and abdominal gastrointestinal tube: The pharyngeal region comprises the cranial-most portion of the GI tube; because it gives rise to the structures of the head and neck, this region is discussed in detail elsewhere. Foregut • Supplied by the celiac artery • Gives rise to the: - Esophagus - Stomach - Liver buds, which ultimately form the liver - Gallbladder - Ventral and dorsal pancreatic buds (aka, diverticula), which will later fuse to form the pancreas - Proximal duodenum Midgut • Supplied by the superior mesenteric artery • Comprises primary intestinal loop, which connects to the yolk sac via the vitelline duct • Gives rise to the: - Distal duodenum - Jejunum - Ileum - Ascending colon 1 / 2 - Proximal 2/3 of the transverse colon Hindgut • Supplied by the inferior mesenteric artery • Gives rise to the allantois before ending blindly at the cloaca • Gives rise to the: - Distal 1/3 of the transverse colon - Descending and sigmoid colons - The proximal 2/3 of the anorectal canal The distal 1/3 of the anorectal canal is derived from ectoderm that invaginates the area around the proctodeum (aka, anal pit). INNERVATION The enteric nervous system, which is derived from neural crest cells, regulates motility to propel the contents of the GI tract. MESENTERIES Mesenteries divide the peritoneal cavity and suspend the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, they provide a protective covering for neurovascular structures. • The ventral mesentery is derived from the septum transversum, and will give rise to ligaments associated with the liver.

  • Development of the Respiratory System
    Development of the Respiratory System O W.S. University of Hong Kong Prenatal time scale (in months) (Cochard 2002) Plan of development • The primordia for the respiratory system consists of upper and lower airway: • The main event in the upper airway is the division of stomodeum by the palate into separate respiratory (nasal) and gastrointestinal (oral) components . • The development of the lower airway is characterized by the creation of the pleural cavity and extensive branching of the airway within it. The continuous intraembryonic coelom is partitioned into separate pleural, pericardial and peritoneal components, each lined by mesothelium. A bud from the laryngotracheal diverticulum pushes into the pleural sac and continues to branch for more than 22 generations to produce a surface area of 85 m2 for gas exchange between alveoli and the blood stream. Formation of the pleural cavity • 3-week embryo has three germ layers Ectoderm Mesoderm Endoderm • Intraembryonic coelom is formed from lateral mesoderm 3rd week embryo Cochard (2002) Sagittal section at 5-6 weeks Cochard, 2002 The Respiratory System • The upper airway – division of the stomodeum by the palate into the nasal (respiratory) and oral (gastrointestinal) components. • The lower airway – creation of the pleural cavity and extensive branching of the airway within it. Formation of the pleural cavity • The U-shaped coelomic cavity is partitioned into separate pleural (2), pericardial (1) and peritoneal (1) cavities. • Division of the pleural and pericardial cavities is by fusion of pleuropericardial folds. • The septum transversum and pleuro- peritoneal membranes forms the diaphragm separating the peritoneal cavity from the pleural cavities. Development of the airway • Respiratory primordium is a median outgrowth from ventral part of pharynx, the laryngotracheal groove.

  • Endodermal Derivatives, Formation of the Gut and Its Subsequent Rotation
    18. ENDODERMAL DERIVATIVES, FORMATION OF THE GUT AND ITS SUBSEQUENT ROTATION Dr. Mike Gershon Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology Telephone: 305-3447 E-mail: [email protected] READING ASSIGNMENT: Larsen 3rd edition: Review Chapter 6: pp. 134—149; Chapter 9, pp. 235-259. SUMMARY:The gut is formed as a critical byproduct of the folding of the germ disc. The primitive bowel extends from the buccopharyngeal membrane to the cloacal membrane. It is portioned into a foregut, a midgut, and a hindgut. The foregut, which gives rise to the largest number of structures forms the pharynx and its derivatives, the lower respiratory tract, the esophagus, the stomach, the duodenum, proximal to the ampulla of Vater, the liver, the pancreas, and the biliary apparatus. From the stomach on, these structures are supplied by the celiac artery. The midgut is supplied by the superior mesenteric artery, and the hindgut is supplied by the inferior mesenteric artery. These vessels define the segmentation of the bowel. The stomach rotates 90° clockwise as it grows, which has major consequences for the positioning of the mesenteries, the duodenum, bile duct, and pancreas. The liver and biliary system arise from the hepatic diverticulum, which grows into the ventral mesentery and septum transversum. The hepatic diverticulum divides into a cranial and a caudal division: the cranial forms the liver and the smaller, caudal forms the extrahepatic biliary system. The pancreas arises from dorsal and ventral pancreatic buds. The rotation of the stomach brings the buds together so that they can fuse into a definitive pancreas. The midgut grows rapidly and herniates into the umbilical cord, where it rotates 90° counterclockwise.
