![]() The portion of the right dorsal aorta between the origin of the 7th intersegmental artery and the junction with left dorsal aorta disappears as well. The portion of dorsal aorta between 3rd and 4th arches disappears. Left dorsal aorta - left aortic arch distal to LSCAĭorsal aorta - The cranial portion also forms the distal portion of internal carotid arteries on both sides. Right dorsal aorta - right distal subclavian artery Right sixth arch - proximal portion forms the right pulmonary artery (RPA). The distal portion forms the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Left sixth arch - proximal portion forms the left pulmonary artery (LPA). Right 4th arch - proximal portion of right subclavian artery (RSCA) Left 4th arch - arch between the left common carotid artery (LCCA) and left subclavian artery (LSCA) The third, fourth, and sixth arches remain large to give rise to the vessels of the aortic arch as well as the aorta.ģrd arch - common carotid artery, external carotid artery and the proximal portion of the internal carotid artery on both the sides The second arch mostly disappears as well and forms the hyoid and stapedial arteries. The first arch mostly disappears, leaving behind a small portion that forms the maxillary artery. The fifth aortic arch either never forms or forms incompletely and regresses. Initially, there are 6 aortic arches connecting the ventral aorta and the dorsal aorta. They develop from cranial to caudal fashion. The pharyngeal arches and its vessels (aortic arches) develop during the 4th to 5th week of gestation but are not present simultaneously. Each pharyngeal arch receives its own artery, which is derived from the aortic arches. The aortic sac forms the right and left horns of the aorta, which form the aortic arches before terminating in the right and left dorsal aorta. The distal part of the truncus arteriosus is from the aortic sac. These include a common origin of the brachiocephalic artery and the left common carotid artery, and origin of the vertebral artery between the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery. This will lead to the left aortic arch (LAA) will be on the left of the trachea, and the right aortic arch (RAA) will be on the right of the trachea.ĭue to several embryological alterations, the architecture of the aortic arch can be altered, giving rise to an array of different aortic arch anomalies. The side of the aortic arch is determined by the bronchus that is traversed by the aortic arch. The brachiocephalic trunk then divides into the right common carotid artery and right subclavian artery. The transverse aortic arch gives rise to three branches, the brachiocephalic artery, the left common carotid artery, and left subclavian artery. A vascular ring is a condition in which both the trachea and the esophagus are encircled by vascular structures or its remnants (ligamentous remnant, atretic chord like remnant). ![]()
