Straight Tube Heart. Primitive Cardiac Cavities vs. Primitive Cardiac Segments

  • Chapter
Living Morphogenesis of the Heart

Abstract

In integrating the postmortem study of morphological structures with their prospective fate in the straight tube heart in man and in chick, interpretations were made that are not consistent with results ascertained by in vivo labeling, because the prospective fate of developing structure can be only investigated by in vivo studies. For that reason, traditional discriptions of the straight tube heart in both species may need further clarification including our own early studies (De la Cruz et al 1972) as well as those of others (Davis 1927; Streeter 1942; Patten 1948; Romanoff 1960; DeVries and Saunders 1962; Grant 1962; Rosenquist and DaHaan 1966; Netter and Van Mierop 1969; Dor and Corone 1973; Steding and Seidl 1980; Pexieder et al 1989; Viragh et al 1989). For example, the embryological constitution of the definitive ventricles appears to be much different based on in vivo labeling than originally thought when only fixed and embedded materials were studied.
