Persistent fetal circulation is a condition caused by a failure in the systemic circulation and pulmonary circulation to convert from the antenatal circulation pattern to the "normal" pattern. Infants experience a high mean arterial pulmonary artery pressure and a high afterload at the right ventricle.
The first and second arches disappear early. A remnant of the 1st arch forms part of the maxillary artery, [3] a branch of the external carotid artery. The ventral end of the second develops into the ascending pharyngeal artery, and its dorsal end gives origin to the stapedial artery, [3] a vessel which typically atrophies in humans [4] [5] but persists in some mammals.
It is the fetal heart and not the mother's heart that builds up the fetal blood pressure to drive its blood through the fetal circulation. Intracardiac pressure remains identical between the right and left ventricles of the human fetus.
The truncus arteriosus and bulbus cordis are divided by the aorticopulmonary septum.The truncus arteriosus gives rise to the ascending aorta and the pulmonary trunk.The caudal end of the bulbus cordis gives rise to the smooth parts (outflow tract) of the left and right ventricles (aortic vestibule & conus arteriosus respectively).

A persistent trigeminal artery is associated with an increased risk of aneurysm, though some studies have suggested that this finding may be an effect of selection bias, as most individuals do not undergo the tests necessary to identify the condition. [3] Persistent trigeminal artery has been identified as a rare cause of trigeminal neuralgia ...
Persistent truncus arteriosus (PTA), [1] often referred to simply as truncus arteriosus, [2] is a rare form of congenital heart disease that presents at birth. In this condition, the embryological structure known as the truncus arteriosus fails to properly divide into the pulmonary trunk and aorta.
So far, most American adults have received $3,200 in direct stimulus payments -- $1,200 from the CARES Act in March 2020, $600 at the end of that year and then $1,400 from the American Rescue Plan...
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a medical condition in which the ductus arteriosus fails to close after birth: this allows a portion of oxygenated blood from the left heart to flow back to the lungs from the aorta, which has a higher blood pressure, to the pulmonary artery, which has a lower blood pressure.
