Outflow Septum and Formation of the Ventricular Outflow Tracts

==================================================

The formation of the conus cushions results in the division of the outflow tract of the left and right ventricles. The truncus arteriosus is also being divided by the truncus cushions which grow faster than the conus cushions. The conus cushions grow and fuse to divide the conus cordis into the right and left ventricular outflow tracts.
