Embryology

Summary of the embryology of the heart  

The Pharyngeal apparatus refers to the development and function of the clefts, arches and pouches which contribute to form the major components of the head and neck. Understanding the derivatives of the clefts, arches & pouches is initially time-consuming, however it lays a strong foundation to understand the clinical relevance thereafter. Hopefully this visual mnemonic will allow you to memorise all the derivatives of the pharyngeal apparatus with ease.  

Excellent study notes on the Respiratory System!  

A presentation on the visual system, explains the basic concepts of Anatomy, Physiology, Embryology, Pathology and a little information on examination. It's a great presentation for teaching purposes.  

This short video goes into the changes that occur to a newly-fertilized zygote as it develops through the bilaminar and trilaminar phases.  

Covers the very early development of the human heart. We go from the flat trilaminar stage to the looped heart and its five regions. Part two will then take us from this stage to the four-chambered heart we know so well. I hope you enjoy it.  

The images may not display properly. In that case, just right click and open the pages as images in a new tab, then the whole thing should display fine!  

A website created especially for healthcare students to encourage learning of embryology, malformation and its clinical implications. The package aims to: reinforce and build upon current healthcare curriculum content for embryological teaching of head development, to complement and enhance current teaching/learning/revision for relevant examination(s), to include interactive elements such as self-tests in order to improve learning and retention of knowledge, and finally, to illustrate aspects of malformation for diagnostic/clinical teaching purposes  

This is a compilation of important dates and fact from my embryology text. Maybe usefull to somebody someday!

Learn how the needs of the fetus are met by the placenta, which is a special organ that belongs to both the mother and the fetus!  

An understanding of the embryology of the genitals and urinary system is integral to the comprehension of normal and pathologic function of these organs.  While the genitals and urinary system have largely discrete functions, they share common embryologic origins.  

A PDF Booklet that covers the underlying anatomy, embryology and basic overviews related to groin swellings, particularly inguinal and femoral hernias.  

A revision powerpoint that covers the various embrylogical processes that take place in the developing embryo, and the consequences when they go wrong
