Q

how does thyroglossal duct cyst form?

A

3 wk gestation thyroid gland forms from diverticulum at tongue (foramen cecum)
descends to fuse with 4th-5th pouch components
5-8wk: tract formed by descent obliterates, forming foramen cecum proximally and pyramidal lobe thyroid distally
Incomplete obliteration –> TDC

Q

Dermoid vs teratoma

A

Dermoid- ectoderm/mesoderm only, from entrapped epithelium along lines of embryonic fusion, enlarge over time, cheesy contents upon excision, fill with sebaceous material

Teratoma- all 3 germ layers, larger/typically more Sx, dx by prenatal u/s often, 30% associated with polyhydramnios (esophageal obstruction)

Q

Branchial cleft vs arch vs pouch

A

At 4wk geswtation, there are 4 pairs of arches, and two rudimentary ones
External lining ectoderm, internal endoderm, meso between
arches separated by pouches internally and clefts externally
clefts and pouches gradually replaced with mesenchyme
when clefts and pouches persist –> branchial anomaly

abnormal fold in scapha

Tx press out this area

53
Q

Protrudring ear

A

third most common ext auricular deformity
tx fix posterior helical rim to posterior retruauricular region with surgical tape; or use dental wax to mold ear in addition to taping

54
Q

Syndromes involving microtia

A

Treacher Collins

Goldenhar

55
Q

Types of microtia

A

I- mild deformities, no need for additional skin/cartilage to reconstruct
II- some structures recognizable
III- no recognizable landmarks

56
Q

Management of type III microtia

A 
2-4 stages of surgery
Stage 1- cartilage implant (rib)
2- 2-3 mo later, transfer lobule
3- elevate cartilage graft, postauricular skin grafting
4- tragus
57
Q

Optimal timing of microtia repair

A

6-8 yo

58
Q

When should you place a BAHA when they have bilateral HL

A

Prior to 12 mo old

59
Q

Protruding ear measurement

A

mastoid to ear angle of 40 degrees or distance of 20mm

60
Q

Hemangioma vs vascular malformation

A

Hem: rarely present at birth, rapid postnatal proliferation then slow involution
10% incidence, most common neonatal tumor
increased capillary tubule formation

VM: always present at birth, abnormal morphogenesis of vascular channels, do not proliferate or involute, may grow larger with existing cell hypertrophy/fill cystic space with trauma/infection/hormones

61
Q

Low flow vs high flow VMs

A

Low: capillary, venous, lymphatic, combined

High: arterial, AVM

62
Q

Klippel Trenaunay syndrome

A

cutaneous capillary malformation
underlying venous/lymphatic malformation
associated with skeletal overgrowth of limb

63
Q

Sturge Weber

A

facial capillary malformation (port wine stain) in CN V, think about leptomeningeal VM on that side
