VITTELOINTESTINAL DUCT

VITELLOINTESTINAL DUCT /YOLK STALK

OMPHALOMESENTERIC DUCT

The endodermal connection between the mid-gut and the

yolk sac. During embryonic disc folding (human week 3) this structure is initially a

broad open connection which is then restricted to a narrow tube and

finally closed between the mid-gut and the

yolk sac.

Yolk sacembroy

YOLK SAC ATTTACHED TO EMBROY THROUGH VITTELOINTESTINAL DUCT

The constituents of the vitelline duct

vitelline veins ( Paired) (omphalomesenteric vein,The blood vessels

which form in the yolk sac and have a blood flow towards the embryo. Derived from the extra-embryonic mesoderm surrounding the endoderm of the yolk sac.

vitelline arteries ( Paired) . (omphalomesenteric artery The blood

vessels which form in the yolk sac and have a blood flow away from embryo. Derived from the extraembryonic mesoderm surrounding the endoderm of the yolk sac.

Vitellogenesis The term refers to the formation of yolk.

ARACHNOID CYST

Arachnoid cyst …..a brief

Arachnoid cysts are benign intracranial non communicating

collections in the arachnoid memberane. USUALLY STABLE CAN OCCUR INTRACRANIALLY OR IN SPINAL CANAL ALSO. EVEN IF LARGE ( RARELY CAUSE SYMPTOMS)

MID LINE CYSTS MAY LEAD TO PITUITARY DYSFUNCTION. MAY INTERFERE WITH CSF CIRCULATION.

COMMON LOCCATIONS ARE :1. SYLVIAN FISSURE / TEMPORAL FOSSA2. POSTERIOR FOSSA 3. ALONG CEREBERAL CONVEXITY4. MIDLIINE ( SUPRASELLAR)

galen ( Midline cysts may

accompany corpus callosum dysgenesis so in supratentorial cysts corpus callosum should be assessed) .
