Human Embryo Limb Rotation
Arrows have been superimposed upon this Carnegie stage 19 embryo to show the direction in which the upper and lower limbs rotate during development.
Upper Limb | Lower limb |
---|---|
rotates dorsally (laterally)
thumb rostral and elbow faces outward extensor muscles - lateral and posterior of limb |
rotates ventrally (medially)
toe rostral and knee faces outward extensor muscles - anterior aspect of limb |
This distinctive embryonic rotation also establishes the future sensory pattern of dermatomes, segmentally patterned before this rotation.
