Atrioventricular Canal - Development of Atrioventricular Canal Disorder

Development of Atrioventricular Canal Disorder

This defect is developed because of the improper formation of the endocardial cushions, and their job is to separate the different parts of the heart during development when they fuse. The structures that develop from the fusion of the endocardial cushions are:

atrial septum- this structure divides the left and right atrium

ventricular septum-this structure divides the left and right ventricles.

Mitral Valve and Tricupsid valve- these valves are formed by the proper division of an early common valve being separated into two.

    A defective voice will always preclude an artist from achieving the complete development of his art, however intelligent he may be.... The voice is an instrument which the artist must learn to use with suppleness and sureness, as if it were a limb.
    Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)

    My impression about the Panama Canal is that the great revolution it is going to introduce in the trade of the world is in the trade between the east and the west coast of the United States.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    In a town-meeting, the great secret of political science was uncovered, and the problem solved, how to give every individual his fair weight in the government, without any disorder from numbers. In a town-meeting, the roots of society were reached. Here the rich gave counsel, but the poor also; and moreover, the just and the unjust.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
