Q

How does the inner ear develop?

A

Surface ectoderm thickens and form the otic placode
Otic placode invaginate and forms otic pit
Otic pit rounds up and give us the otic vesicle
Otic vesicle migrates into the head and into petrous portion of the temporal bone

Makes the primordium of membranous labyrinth

23
Q

What fills the membranous labyrinth?

A

Endolymph

24
Q

What produces endolymph? What stores it?

What is endolymph?

A

Stria vascularis

Similar ion content to intracellular fluid with high K and protein but low Na

Endolymphatic sac stores endolymph

25
Q

What is the embryological origin of the bony labyrinth?

A

Mesenchyme (condensed)

26
Q

What is contained in the vacuoles of the bony labyrinth?

A

Perilymphatic space (semicircular canals)
Scalia vestibule
Scalia tympani

27
Q

What does the bony labyrinth form?

What does this separate it from?

A

Canal; separates it from membranous labyrinth

28
Q

What is contained in the bony labyrinth

A

Perilymph

29
Q

What does the perilymphatic allow for passage of?

A

Unobstructed passage from subarachnoid space to the inner ear

30
Q

What is the perilymph similar to?

A

Similar in ion content to CSF

High na, low k and protein

31
Q

Where can things in perilymph go?

A

Can eventually migrate out into subarachnoid space

32
Q

What happens if you get a chronic ear infection in the tympanic cavity?

A

Can travel via a perilymph duct to the subarachnoid space

33
Q

What does the vestibulocochlear n. Develop from?

A

Otic placode (surface ectoderm)

34
Q

What comprises the Vestibular ganglion?

A

Collection of cell bodies from all the vestibular bodies (macula and ampullae)
Vestibular n.

35
Q

What comprises the spiral (cochlear) ganglion?

A

Collection of cell bodies all around the cochlea from sensory neurons

Cochlear n.

36
Q

What innervates the inner ear?

A

Hair cells

37
Q

Where do you find hair cells?

A

In the membranous labyrinth

Specifically

Ampulla of utricle
Macula of utricle
Organ of corti from saccule

38
Q

What do all hair cells of the inner ear originate from embryonically?

Can they regenerate?

A

Surface ectoderm

No

39
Q

What do the hair cells in the ampullae detect?

A

Rotational acceleration

40
Q

What do hair cells in the macula detect?

A

Gravity

Linear acceleration

41
Q

What do hair cells in the organ of corti detect?

A

Sound vibration

42
Q

What does the external auditory meatus develop from?

A

Pharyngeal cleft 1 - ectoderm

43
Q

What does the tubotympanic recess develop from?

A

Pharyngeal pouch 1 - endoderm

44
Q

What does the tympanic membrane develop from?

A

Pharyngeal membrane 1 - ectoderm, endoderm, mesoderm

45
Q

What are the ossicles covered with?

A

Endodermal epithelium

46
Q

What is the origin of the tubotympanic recess/

A

From pharyngeal pouch 1
Mastoid antrum
Tympanic cavity
Pharyngotympanic tube

Endoderm

47
Q

What is the origin, insertion, action and innervation of Tensor Tympani M. ?

A

O: PA 1 mesoderm

I: handle of malleus

A: prevents damage from loud sound

N: CN V3

48
Q

What is the origin, insertion, action and innervation of

Stapedius M.?

A

O: PA 2 mesoderm

I: neck of stapes

A: pulls stapes posteriorly and tilts base in oval window, prevents damage from loud sounds

N: CN 7

49
Q

What is a meatus plug?

A

Proliferation of the surface ectoderm over the external Auditory meatus that will eventually undergo apoptosis in late fetus life

(Some people still have meatus plug)

50
Q

What is congenital deafness?

What can it result from?

A

Inner ear form independently form middle and external ears causing maldevelopment of sound conduction apparatus of middle and external ears

From:

  • 1st pharyngeal arch syndrome
  • abnormalities of malleus and incus
  • congenital fixation of the stapes
  • infections
51
Q

What infections could cause congenital deafness?

During what time?

A 
Rubella infection - wk 7-8 - causing defect of spiral organ 
Cytomegalovirus 
Toxoplasmosis
Symphysis
Zika virus
52
Q

What does cytomegalovirus cause?

A

Sensorineural hearing loss

53
Q

What does the rubella virus cause in the ear?

A

Sensorineural deafness

54
Q

What does taxoplasma gondii cause in the ear?

A

Hearing loss

55
Q

What does taxoplasma gondii cause in the ear?

A

Congenital deafness
