12
Clinical second trimester Fetal head lateral.jpgWeek 12 - CRL 85 mm, femur length 15 mm, biparietal diameter 25 mm

Sense - Hearing Week 12-16 - Capsule adjacent to membranous labrynth undegoes vacuolization to form a cavity (perilymphatic space) around membranous labrynth and fills with perilymph

Genital male and female external genital differences observable

Respire Month 3-6 - lungs appear glandular, end month 6 alveolar cells type 2 appear and begin to secrete surfactant

Tongue Week 12 - first differentiated epithelial cells (Type II and III)

female genital canal (80 days) formed with absorption of the median septum

13
  Tongue Week 12 to 13 - maximum synapses between cells and afferent nerve fibers

 

14
Tongue Week 14 to 15 - taste pores develop, mucous
15
  Pancreas glucagon detectable in fetal plasma
16
14 cm Sense - Hearing Week 16-24 - Centres of ossification appear in remaining cartilage of otic capsule form petrous portion of temporal bone. Continues to ossify to form mastoid process of temporal bone.

Pituitary adenohypophysis fully differentiated

Respire Week 16 to 25 lung histology - canalicular

Skin 4 months - basal cell- proliferation generates folds in basement membrane; neural crest cells- (melanocytes) migrate into epithelium; embryonic connective tissue- differentiates into dermis, a loose ct layer over a dense ct layer. Beneath the dense ct layer is another loose ct layer that will form the subcutaneous layer. Ectoderm contributes to nails, hair follictles and glands. Nails form as thickening of ectoderm epidermis at the tips of fingers and toes. These form germinative cells of nail field. Cords of these cells extend into mesoderm forming epithelial columns. These form hair follocles, sebaceous and sweat glands.

primary follicles begin to form in the ovary and are characterized by an oocyte

glandular urethra forms and skin folds present

17
 
18
Tongue Week 18 - substance P detected in dermal papillae, not in taste bud primordia

Skin vernix caseosa covers skin

Spleen -SMA-positive reticulum cells increase in number and begin to form a reticular framework. PMID: 1925578

19
   
20
  Pituitary week 20 to 24 growth hormone levels peak, then decline

Skin lanugo, skin hair

Skin 5 months - Hair growth initiated at base of cord, lateral outgrowths form associated sebaceous glands; Other cords elongate and coil to form sweat glands; Cords in mammary region branch as they elongate to form mammary glands.

Uterus Development uterine horn fimbrial development begins and continues after birth

21
   
22
  Neural brain cortical sulcation - sylvian fissure, interhemispheric fissure, callosal sulcus, parietooccipital fissure, and hippocampic fissures present(PMID:11158907

Spleen - antigenic reticular framework diversity, T and B lymphocytes segregated in the framework PMID: 1925578

23
   
24
  Respire Week 24 to 40 lung histology - terminal sac

Earliest potential survival expected if born

ovarian follicles can consist of growing oocytes surrounded by several layers of granulosa cells

25
  Respire end month 6 alveolar cells type 2 appear and begin to secrete surfactant
