Endothelial tube meshwork
Endothelial tube network
appears in chorion and
body stalk, and connect to
vitelline circulation.
By the 18-20th days,
endothelial tube network
appears in intraembry-onic
mesenchyma to form
intraembryonic endothe-
lial tube network.
By the end of 3rd week,
intraembryonic and extra-
embryonic endothelial
tube networks connect to
each other.
Endothelial tube networks
fuse or disappear to form
primordial cardiovas-
cular system.

Cardiogenic area

Cardiogenic area is anterior to
the ooropharyngealropharyngeal membrane.
Development of the cardiac tube
A. A cavity appears in the cardiogenic area
--pericardial cavity

--cardiaogenic plate

E. Lateral folding: 2 cardiac tubes → single cardiac tube.
F. The tube remains attached to the dorsal side of the
pericardial cavity by the dorsal mesocardium.
G. The dorsal mesocardium breaks down to form the
transverse sinus, which connects both sides of the
pericardial cavity.

The bulboventricular
loop continues to grow
and bend:
• Atrium shifts in dorso-
cranial direction and
bulges laterally on each
side of bulbus.
• Sinus venousus located
at caudal portion of
atrium
• Primary ventricle develop
into the left ventricle.
• The bulbus cordis
proximal portion develops
into the right ventricle.
• Atrioventricular canal:
atrioventricular junction
remains narrow.

Partitioning of atrioventricular canal
• Endocardiac cushion: • The endocardial cushions grow toward each other and fuse
Bicuspid
Ttricuspid
Endocardiaccushion
• Lateral atrioventricular cushion: form atrioventricular valve. Left → bicuspid, right → tricuspid
Foramen primum
Septumprimum
Endocardiaccushion
Partitioning of the primitive atrium
• Septum primum: a thin sickle-shaped crest appearing from dorso-cranial wall of atrium.
• Foramen primum: septum primum grows toward the endocardial cushions, leaving an opening between its lower edge and the endocardial cushions

• Foramen secundum
Small holes fuse to

the septum primum. End of the 5th w

• The septum primum

ovale, serves as a
valve.

• Before birth, blood can
flow from right atrium
toward the left atrium
• After birth, two septums
fuse , the foramen ovale

atrium is separated into
R and L atria.

Inter-ventricular septum
Partitioning of the primitive ventricle
• Interventricular foramen
the muscular interven-
tricular septum keeps
growing toward endo-
cardial cushions, but left
an opening, called inter-
ventricular foramen.

Truncus arteriosus
Truncal ridge
Bulbar ridge
• Two spiral truncal ridges/ bulbar ridges grow from the
inner walls of the truncus arteriosus and bulbus cordis.
Division of truncus arteriosus and bulbus cordis
• These ridges twist around each other and fuse to
form a spiral aorticopulmonary septum.
Pulmonaryartery Aortico-
pulmonary septum
Aorta
• The ridges spiral neatly down the truncus until they reach the ventricles.
• As the same time, the division of the ventricle is completed.• Aorticopulmonary septum divides truncus arteriosus and
bulbus cordis into two channels: pulmonary trunk
connecting to the right ventricle; aorta connecting to the left
ventricle.
Blood circulation of fetus
and circulatory changes after birth
Before birth
Placental circulation: umbilical A. & V.
Blood circulation of fetus
a.Umbilical A: distal parts becomes into medial umbilical ligament, but proximal portions persist as superior vesical arteries.
b. Umbilical V and ducts venousus: constrict and becomes into ligamen-tum teres hepatis and ligamentum venosus
c. Ductus arteriosus: constrict and become ligamentum arteriosum
d. Foramen ovale closed
Circulatory changes after birth
Congenital defects of
the cardiovascular system
Atrial septal defect
An atrial septal defect (ASD) is a common congenital
heart anomaly.
The most common form of ASD is patent oval foramen.
Consequently there is a mixing of oxygenated and
deoxygenated blood.
Atrial septal defect
A. Perforation of valve of
ovale foramen
B. Excessive resorption of the
septum primum
C. Inadequate development of
the septum secundum.
D.B+C
Endocardial cushion defect with septum primum defect
Ventricular septal defect Muscular part of the ventricular septum: sparsely Membranous part of the ventricular septum defect:commonly
Unfused endocardial cushion,bulbar ridge and muscular septum or over absorption of membranous septum
Ductus arteriosus fails to be closed after birth. Isolated or combined with other defects. Blood will be shunted from the aorta to the lungs, eventually causing irreversible pulmonary hypertension.
Patent ductus arteriosus
Persistent truncus arteriosus
Aorticopulmonary septal
ridges fail to fuse and descend;
Truncus overrides both
ventricles;
Accompanied by ventricular
septal defect;
Resulting in cyanotic defect.
Transposition of great vessels
Aorticopulmonary septum
failing to follow its spiral course and descending straight downward
Aorta originates from right ventricle, pulmonary artery from left
Usually combined with
patent ductus arteriosus
Tetralogy of Fallot
A complex of 4 defects:
Pulmonary stenosis
Overriding aorta
Ventricular septal defect
Hypertrophy of the right
ventricle
Unequal division of the truncus and bulbus
Morphogenesis of the heart
Partitioning of atrioventricular canal, autrium, ventricle, and truncus arteriosus and bulbus cordis
