Embryology. ^ THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE VASCULAR SYSTEM In embryos of 4 to 5 mm. the right portion of the sinus venosus grows more rapidly than the left, this being due to the fact that the blood flow of the left umbilical vein is shifted to the right side through the liver. As a result the en- larged right horn of the sinus opens into the right dorsal wall of the atrium through a longitudinally oval foramen, which is guarded on the right by a vertical Fig. 250.—A, heart of human embryo of mm.
