Unlike other embryonic organs, the developing heart must support, through its proper function, the developing embryo from time diffusion becomes limiting. Hemodynamics is thus not only a key to remodeling of the developing vasculature but also a powerful stimulus for cardiac growth and differentiation. In this chapter are discussed prenatal models of hemodynamic perturbation that help clarifying the role of blood flow in emryogenesis.
