What important gene is at the zone of polarizing and involved in anterior and posterior axis?
Sonic Hedgehog gene
Gene produced at the apical ectodermal ridge and needed for organizing along the doral-ventral axis?
Wnt-7 gene
What is the Rule of 2s for the 2nd week of development? 3
2 germ layers: epiblast and hypoblast

2 cavities: amniotic and yolk

2 components to the placenta: cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast
What is the Rule of 3s for the 3rd week of development? 1
3 germ layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm
What is the Rule of 4s for the 4th week of development? 2
4 heart chambers

4 limb buds grow
What is a benign Rathke's pouch tumor with cholesterol crystals and calcifications?
Craniopharyngioma
What do aminoglycosides do to a fetus?
CN VIII toxicity.

A mean guy hit the baby in the hear.
What effect does warfarin have on the fetus?
- bone deformitis
- fetal hemorrhage
- abortion
opthalmologic abnormalities

Do not wage warfare on the baby; keep it heppy with heparin. ( Doesn't cross placenta)
What supplies the fetus with oxygenated blood from placenta; drains to IVC?
umbilical vein
What is the urachal duct and what are 2 abnormalities that involve it?
3rd wk yolf sac forms the allantois which extends int othe rurogenital sinus. The Allantois becomes the urachus a duct between bladder and yolk sac.

1. Patent urachus - urine discharge from the umbilicus
2. Vesicourachal diverticulum - outpouching of the bladder
What is the vitelline duct and what 2 abnormalities?
also known as the omphalomesenteris duct = connects yolk sac to the midgut lumen.

1. Vitelline Duct Fistula = failure of duct to clsoe => meconium discharges from umbilicus
2. Meckel's diverticulum = partial closure with pain
How does the interatrial septum develop? 6
1. Foramen primum narrows as it grows toward endocardial cushions
2. Septum Primum forms
3. Foramen Secundum forms a hole in Septum Primum
4. Foramen ovale develops
5. Septum secundum develops
6. Foramen ovale closes after birth with INC LA pressure
Name where and when fetal erythropoisis occurs?
1. Yolk sac - 3-8
2. Liver 6-30
3. Spleen 9-28
4. Bone marrow 28 onward

Young liver synthesis blood.
fetal hemeglobin: alpha2y2
adult: alpha2beta2
What are 3 important fetal shunts to be aware of?
1. Ductus venosus - blood enter the fetus through the umbilical vein into the IVC and bypass the hepatic circulation

2. Foramen ovale - oxygenated blood from IVC is diverted through the foramen ovale and pumped into the aorta
3. Ductus arteriosus - deoxy blood from the SVC is expelled into this
What closes the foramen ovale (now fossa ovalis) and ductus arteriosus?
First breath dec resistance in pulmonary vasculature causes INC left atrial pressure and foramen ovale closes

INC O2 leads to dec prostanglandins which closes ductus arteriosus
WHat does this become?
1. Umbilical vein?
2. Ductus Arteriosus?
3. Urachus?
1. ligamentum teres hepatis - falciform ligament
2. ductus arteriosus - ligamentum arteriosum
3. urachus - allantoic duct between bladder and umbilicus
Posterior fossa malformation with large posterior fossa, absent cerebellar vermis with cystic enlargement of the 4th ventricle => leads to hydrocephalus and spina bifida.
Dandy-Walker
Posterior fossa malformation with cerebellar tonsillar herniation through foramen magnum with aqueductal stenosis and hydrocephaly. Often presents with syringomyelia and thoraco-lumbar myelomeningocele...what is it?
Chiari II
A pt presents with a cape-like bilateral loss of pain and temp. sensation in upper extremities with preservation of touch...what do they have and why?
Syringomyelia ( superman wears a cape)

enlargement of central canal of spinal cord
What do the 6 aortic arches turn into?
1. Maxillary artery
2. (s is second) Stapedial and hyoid artery
3. Carotid is the third letter in the alphabet
4. L = aortic arch; R = right subclavian
6. Pulmonary arteries
Branchial pouch derivatives? Ear, Tonsils, Bottom to Top.
1 - ear
2. - tonsils
3 bottom = inferior parathyroid
3 ventral to thymus
4 top superior parathyroids
Extrusion of abdominal contents through abds w/o peritoneum is what?
Gastroschisis - lateral fold defect?
Guts outside of body through umbilical cord and with peritoneum due to defective lateral fold is what?
Omphalocele
An infant presents with cyanosis, choking, and vomiting with feeding. Air bubble are seen on CXR along with a failure to pass an NG tube into the stomach and pneumonitis. What does this pt have?
Tracheoesophageal fistula
A 1st born 2wk yo male presents to your office with nonbilious projectile vomiting and a palpable olive mass in his epigastric region...what does he have?
Congenital pyloric stenosis
Babies who can't pee develop Potter's syndrome. What is Potter's syndrome?
Bilateral renal agenesis -> limb deformities, fascial deformities, pulmonary hypoplasia caused by malformation of ureteric bud.
What gene on the Y chromosome produces testical determining factors?
SRY and Mullerian inhibitory factor from Sertoli cells
The Mesonephric or Wolddian duct becomes what?
male internal structures -> SEED
