The process by which a single cell鈭抰he fertilized ovum鈭抌ecomes a fully formed and functional infant is one of the marvels of life. Its course鈭抜nvolving cellular proliferation and differentiation, tissue twisting and folding, cell cluster expansion and regression鈭抜s complex almost beyond comprehension. This exhibit illustrates some of the anomalies that occur when this process goes awry.
Descriptions of the relevant normal developmental stages as well as explanations of the pathogenesis of the anomalies can be found in the accompanying handbook or on the Museum website (QR images). The embryological descriptions are illustrated by diagrams reproduced from former 缅北强奸 professor Jan Langman鈥檚 Textbook of Embryology and by a number of Adolf Ziegler wax models purchased by the 缅北强奸 Anatomy Museum in the early 1900s.
Many of the cardiac specimens come from the personal collection of Maude Abbott, Curator of the Museum in the early 1900s and author of the groundbreaking Atlas of Congenital Cardiac Disease.
