5. Embryology Of Head And Neck Flashcards
What does the endoderm tube develop into?
Glandular development:
- parathyroid
- thymus
- palatine tonsils
- thyroid
What are the pharyngeal arches?
Comprised of a system of mesenchymal proliferations in the neck region
5 in total (1-6, 5 does not form)
Together will frontonasal prominence constitute the building blocks for the head and neck region
What does each pharyngeal arch have?
An associated artery, nerve (cranial nerve) and cartilage bar
Which cranial nerves are associated with pharyngeal apparatus?
CNV, VII, IX, X
Where do muscles of mastication originate from?
Pharyngeal arch 1 derivatives
Where do muscles of facial expression originate from?
Pharyngeal arch 2 derivatives
What muscles derives from the third pharyngeal arch?
Stylopharyngeus
What muscles derive from the 4th pharyngeal arch?
Cricothyroid
Levator palatini
Constrictors of the pharynx
What muscle derives from the 6th pharyngeal arch?
Intrinsic muscles of the larynx
What do the cartilages of first pharyngeal arch become?
Malleus and incus plus a template for formation of the mandible
What do the cartilages for the second pharyngeal arch become?
Stapes plus upper part of hyoid bone
What do the cartilages of the third pharyngeal arch become?
Remainder of thyroid bone
What do the cartilages of the 4th and 6th pharyngeal arches become?
Cartilages of the larynx
What happens to the 1st and 2nd arch arteries?
Disappear
What does the 3rd arch artery become?
Internal carotid artery
What does the 4th arch artery become?
Arch of aorta (L) and brachiocephalic (R)

Pulmonary arch
What are pharyngeal pouches?
Endoderm lined pockets in the pharynx
What does the first pharyngeal pouch become?
Tympanic cavity
What does development of the pharyngeal pouches result in?
Formation of palatine tonsils and parathyroid glands and the thymus
Which is the only pharyngeal cleft that remains and what does it become?
1st cleft
Becomes external acoustic meatus
