 The sinus venosus later absorbs into the
atrium,
 the bulbus becomes incorporated into the
ventricle so that, in the fully developed heart,
the atria and great veins come to lie posterior to
the ventricles and the roots of the great
arteries.
 The boundary tissue between the primitive
single atrial cavity and single ventricle grows
out as a dorsal and a ventral endocardial
cushion
 which meet in the midline, thus dividing the
common atrio-ventricular orifice into a right
(tricuspid) and left (mitral) orifice.

 A partition, the septum primum, grows downwards from the posterior
 and superior walls of the primitive common atrium to fuse with the
endocardial cushions.
 Before fusion is complete, a hole appears in the upper part of this septum
primum, which is termed the foramen secundum in the septum
primum.

A second membrane, the septum secundum,
 then develops to the right of the septum primum but this is never complete;
 it has a free lower edge which does extend low enough for this new septum
to overlap the foramen secundum in the septum primum and hence to close
it.
 The two overlapping defects in the septa form the valve-like, which shunts
blood from the right to left heart in the fetus.
 After birth, this foramen usually becomes completely fused leaving only the
fossa ovalis on the septal wall of the right atrium as its memorial.
 In about 10% of adult subjects, a probe can still be passed through an
anatomically patent, although functionally sealed foramen.

 NB: the adult left atrium has a double origin:
 originally, single pulmonary venous trunk entering the left
atrium -donates the smooth-walled part of this chamber
with the pulmonary veins entering as four separate openings;
 the trabeculated part of the definitive left atrium is the

Partition of ventriclePartition of ventricle
 Division of the ventricle is commenced by the up growth of a
fleshy septum from the apex of the heart towards the
endocardial cushions.
 This stops short of dividing the ventricle completely and thus
it has an upper free border, forming a temporary
interventricular foramen.
 At the same time, the single truncus arteriosus is divided
into aorta and pulmonary trunk by a spiral septum (hence the
spiral relations of these two vessels),
 which grows downwards to the ventricle and fuses accurately
with the upper free border of the ventricular septum.
 This contributes the small pars membranacea septi,
which completes the separation of the ventricle in such a
way that blood on the left of the septum flows into the aorta
and on the right into the pulmonary trunk.

Orientation of vagus nerveOrientation of vagus nerve
 This asymmetrical development of the aortic arches,
elongation of the neck and caudal migration of the heart-
accounts for the different course taken by the recurrent
laryngeal nerve on each side.
 early fetal life- the vagus nerve lies lateral to the primitive
pharynx, and separated from it by the aortic arches.
 the recurrent laryngeal nerves pass medially, caudal to the
aortic arches to supply the developing larynx.
 On the right side- the 5th and distal part of the 6th arch are
absorbed, leaving the nerve to hook round the 4th arch
(i.e. the right subclavian artery).
 On the left side- the nerve remains looped around the
persisting distal part the 6th arch (the ligamentum
arteriosum- which is overlapped and dwarfed by the arch of
the aorta).

Septal defectsSeptal defects
 At birth, closure of the septum primum and
septum secundum with closing of the flap valve
of the foramen ovale.
-Fusion usually takes place about 3 months
after birth.
-In about 10% of subjects-incomplete fusion
However, the two septa overlap and this
patency of the foramen ovale is of no functional
significance.
09/14/1509/14/15
ASDASD
If the septum secundum is too short to cover the
foramen secundum in the septum primum,
an atrial septal defect persists after the septum
primum and septum secundum are pressed together
at birth.
This results in an ostium secundum defect, which
allows shunting of blood from the left to the right
atrium.
This defect lies high up in the atrial wall and is relatively
easy to close surgically.
NB: A serious atrial septal defect results if the septum
primum fails to fuse with the endocardial cushions.
09/14/1509/14/15
09/14/1509/14/15
ostium primum defect
This lies immediately above the atrioventricular
boundary and may be associated with a defect
of the pars membranacea septi of the ventricular
septum.
In such a case, the child is born with both an atrial
and ventricular septal defect.
 At times, the ventricular septal defect is so large
that the ventricles form a single cavity, giving a
trilocular heart.

Congenital pulmonary stenosis
 may affect the trunk of the pulmonary artery, its valve
or the infundibulum of the right ventricle.
 If stenosis occurs in conjunction with a septal defect-
compensatory hypertrophy of the right ventricle
(developed to force blood through the pulmonary
obstruction),
 develops a sufficiently high pressure to shunt blood
through the defect into the left heart;
 mixing of the deoxygenated right heart blood
with the oxygenated left-sided blood results in the
child being cyanosed at birth.

09/14/1509/14/15
Tetralogy of fallotTetralogy of fallot
 The commonest causes of cyanosis is Fallot’s
tetralogy. This results from unequal division of
 the truncus arteriosus by the spinal septum, resulting
in a stenosed pulmonary trunk
 a wide aorta which overrides the orifices of both the
ventricles-overriding aorta.
 The displaced septum is unable to close the
interventricular septum, which results in a ventricular
septal defect. Right ventricular hypertrophy
 Cyanosis results from the shunting of large amounts of
deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle through
the ventricular septal defect into the left ventricle and
also directly into the aorta.

PDA & Coartation of AortaPDA & Coartation of Aorta
09/14/1509/14/15
 A persistent ductus arteriosus is a relatively
common congenital defect and If uncorrected,
leads to progressive work hypertrophy of the
left heart and pulmonary hypertension.
 Aortic coarctation is assumed to be due to an
abnormality of the obliterative process, which
normally occludes the ductus arteriosus.
 may be due to an extensive obstruction of the
aorta from the left subclavian artery to the
ductus, which is widely patent and maintains
the circulation to the lower parts of the body;
NB: there are often multiple other defects
present and such infants affected die at an
early age.

  • 35. 09/14/1509/14/15 Partition of ventriclePartition of ventricle  Division of the ventricle is commenced by the up growth of a fleshy septum from the apex of the heart towards the endocardial cushions.  This stops short of dividing the ventricle completely and thus it has an upper free border, forming a temporary interventricular foramen.  At the same time, the single truncus arteriosus is divided into aorta and pulmonary trunk by a spiral septum (hence the spiral relations of these two vessels),  which grows downwards to the ventricle and fuses accurately with the upper free border of the ventricular septum.  This contributes the small pars membranacea septi, which completes the separation of the ventricle in such a way that blood on the left of the septum flows into the aorta and on the right into the pulmonary trunk.

  • 54. 09/14/1509/14/15 Septal defectsSeptal defects  At birth, closure of the septum primum and septum secundum with closing of the flap valve of the foramen ovale. -Fusion usually takes place about 3 months after birth. -In about 10% of subjects-incomplete fusion However, the two septa overlap and this patency of the foramen ovale is of no functional significance.
  • 55. 09/14/1509/14/15 ASDASD If the septum secundum is too short to cover the foramen secundum in the septum primum, an atrial septal defect persists after the septum primum and septum secundum are pressed together at birth. This results in an ostium secundum defect, which allows shunting of blood from the left to the right atrium. This defect lies high up in the atrial wall and is relatively easy to close surgically. NB: A serious atrial septal defect results if the septum primum fails to fuse with the endocardial cushions.
  • 57. 09/14/1509/14/15 ostium primum defect This lies immediately above the atrioventricular boundary and may be associated with a defect of the pars membranacea septi of the ventricular septum. In such a case, the child is born with both an atrial and ventricular septal defect.  At times, the ventricular septal defect is so large that the ventricles form a single cavity, giving a trilocular heart.
  • 60. 09/14/1509/14/15 Congenital pulmonary stenosis  may affect the trunk of the pulmonary artery, its valve or the infundibulum of the right ventricle.  If stenosis occurs in conjunction with a septal defect- compensatory hypertrophy of the right ventricle (developed to force blood through the pulmonary obstruction),  develops a sufficiently high pressure to shunt blood through the defect into the left heart;  mixing of the deoxygenated right heart blood with the oxygenated left-sided blood results in the child being cyanosed at birth.
  • 63. 09/14/1509/14/15 Tetralogy of fallotTetralogy of fallot  The commonest causes of cyanosis is Fallot’s tetralogy. This results from unequal division of  the truncus arteriosus by the spinal septum, resulting in a stenosed pulmonary trunk  a wide aorta which overrides the orifices of both the ventricles-overriding aorta.  The displaced septum is unable to close the interventricular septum, which results in a ventricular septal defect. Right ventricular hypertrophy  Cyanosis results from the shunting of large amounts of deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle through the ventricular septal defect into the left ventricle and also directly into the aorta.

  • 65. 09/14/1509/14/15  A persistent ductus arteriosus is a relatively common congenital defect and If uncorrected, leads to progressive work hypertrophy of the left heart and pulmonary hypertension.  Aortic coarctation is assumed to be due to an abnormality of the obliterative process, which normally occludes the ductus arteriosus.  may be due to an extensive obstruction of the aorta from the left subclavian artery to the ductus, which is widely patent and maintains the circulation to the lower parts of the body; NB: there are often multiple other defects present and such infants affected die at an early age.
