Q

Which rhombomeres contribute to which pharyngeal arches?

A
PA1 = R1-2

40
Q

Cervical (Branchial) Cysts

A

Remnants of cervical sinus (2nd groove)
Lie free in neck, inferior to mandible.
Accumulation of fluid/cellular debris from desquamation.

41
Q

How does thyroid form?

A

Primordial pharynx thickens and descends from tongue area and ventral to the laryngeal cartilage.

42

Connects tongue to thyroid

43
Q

TH levels in:
11th wk
20th wk
35th wk

A

11th wk - colloid appears and TH synthesis occurs.
20th wk - fetal TSH and T3/4 increase.
35th wk - TSH and T3/4 are adult levels.

44

Parafollicular cells (from NCC).
45
Q

Treacher-Collins syndrome (PA1 syndrome)

A

Deficits w/ downward slanting features, deformed, eyelids, external ears, sometimes middle and inner ears.
Ribosomes do not function –> apoptosis of cranial NCC.

Associated w/ hypoplasia of mandible (micrognathia), cleft palate, eye/ear defects.

47
Q

Thyroid hemiagenesis

A

UL absence of thyroid (usually Left).

Mutations in receptor for TSH usually involved.

Q

DiGeorge syndrome

A

Agenesis of thyroid and parathyroid glands.
Low PTH.
Cardiac abnormalities, immune problems, etc.
