  2. Common cardinal veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_cardinal_veins

    The common cardinal veins, also known as the ducts of Cuvier, [1] are veins that drain into the sinus venosus during embryonic development. [2] [3] These drain an anterior cardinal vein and a posterior cardinal vein on each side. [2] [3] Each of the ducts of Cuvier receives an ascending vein.

  3. Anterior cardinal vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cardinal_vein

    The anterior cardinal veins (precardinal veins) contribute to the formation of the internal jugular veins and together with the common cardinal vein form the superior vena cava. The anastomosis between the two anterior cardinal veins develops into the left brachiocephalic vein .

  4. Vitelline veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitelline_veins

    VV Vitelline veins, UV Umbilical veins, CV Cardinal veins, SV Sinus venosus. The vitelline veins give rise to: [4] Hepatic veins; Inferior portion of Inferior vena cava; Portal vein; Superior mesenteric vein; Inferior mesenteric vein; The branches conveying the blood to the plexus are named the venae advehentes, and become the branches of the ...

  5. Vascular remodelling in the embryo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_remodelling_in...

    Reversing flow patterns in arteries and/or veins can also have the same effect, although it is unclear whether this is due to differences in physical or chemical properties of venous vs. arterial flow (i.e. pressure profile and oxygen tension). [10] Another example of the fluidity of arterial-venous identity is that of the intersomitic vessel.

  6. Vitelline circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitelline_circulation

    The red dotted lines are the ventral aortae, and the blue dotted lines the vitelline veins. Vitelline circulation refers to the system of blood flowing from the embryo to the yolk sac and back again. The yolk-sac is situated on the ventral aspect of the embryo; it is lined by endoderm, outside of which is a layer of mesoderm.

  7. Heart development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_development

    When the left common cardinal vein disappears in the tenth week only the oblique vein of the left atrium and the coronary sinus remain. The right pole joins the right atrium to form the wall portion of the right atrium. The right and left venous valves fuse and form a peak known as the septum spurium. At the beginning, these valves are large ...

  8. Dorsal aorta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsal_aorta

    Each primitive aorta anteriorly receives the vitelline vein from the yolk-sac, and is prolonged [clarification needed] backward on the lateral aspect of the notochord under the name of the dorsal aorta. The dorsal aortae give branches to the yolk-sac, and are continued backward through the body-stalk as the umbilical arteries to the villi of ...

    Cardinal vein may refer to: Anterior cardinal veins, which contribute to the formation of the internal jugular veins; Common cardinal veins; Posterior cardinal veins
