Embryo: pharyngeal arches and dev. of neural system Flashcards
arch 1
trigeminal n
arch 2
facial n.
arch 3
glossopharyngeal n.
arch 4
vagus n.
arch 6
vagus n (mostly recurrent laryngeal branch)
what are only 4 nn. with an SVE component
arches 1-4: trigeminal, facial, glossopharyngeal, vagus
what are three component of pharyngeal apparatus?
- pharyngeal clefts: external invagination of ectoderm found between arches (4)
- pharyngeal arches: large blocks of mesenchyme (neural crest and mesoderm) forming on lateral pharynx. (6)
- pharyngeal pouches: internal evagination of pharyngeal endoderm- forms between arches (4)
pharyngeal arches
- core of mesenchyme (neural crest and paraxial mesoderm)
- neural crest –> CT components
- paraxial mesoderm –> muscles
- each arch has its own cranial n. and blood supply (aortic arch artery)
- 6 initially devleop, but the 5th regresses.
Arch 1, what does it form? what nerve is formed?
FORMS FACE:
- skeletal derivatives: viscerocranium (malleus, incus) and CT of face
- muscular derivatives: muscles of mastication (temporalis, masseter, medial, lateral pterygoids), anterior belly of digastric, mylohyoid, tensor tympani, tensor veli palatinin
- NERVE: TRIGEMINAL NERVE CN V3
- oropharyngeal membrane develops b/w the two processes of first arch (will rupture to allow for communication of pharynx and oral cavity)
Arch 2, what does it form? what nerve?
FACIAL EXPRESSION
- skeletal: stapes, styloid process of temproal bone, stylohyoid ligament, lesser horn and superior body of hyoid
- muscular: MUSCLES OF FACIAL EXPRESSION, stylohyoid, post. belly of digastric, spaedius
- NERVE: FACIAL NERVE CN VII
Arch 3, what does it form? innervation?
- skeletal: greater horn and inferior portion of body of hyoid
- Muscular: stylopharyngeus
- NERVE: GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL CN IX
Arch 4: what does it form? innervation?
- skeletal: with 6th arch, forms all laryngeal cartilages
- muscular derivatives: muscles of pharynx; cricothyroid
- NERVE: VAGUS N. CN X
Arch 6: what does it form? innervation/
skeletal: laryngeal cartilages with arch 4
muscular: laryngeal muscles (except cricothyroid); skeletal muscle of esophagus
NERVE: VAGUS N. CNX (recurrent laryngeal n.)
pouch 1?
middle ear and auditory tube
pouch 2?
stroma of palatine tonsil; tonsillar fossa
pouch 3?
dorsal portion: inferior parathyroid glands
ventral portion: thymus
pouch 4?
dorsaL superior PTH glands
ventral: C cells, parafollicular cells and ultimobranchial body
first cleft forms?
external ear
remnants of clefts 2-4?
form the cervical sinus which is later obliterated
what is thyroid gland development consist of?
- derived from median endodermal thickening of pharyngeal floor. gland descneds along the pharynx into the neck, remaining connected to tongue via the thyroglossal duct which will later degenerate
- superior opening of thyroglossal duct remains as foramen cecum
- pyramidal lobe is remnant of distal thyroglossal duct
- parafollicular cells are derived from 4th pouch
how does tongue develop?
1st pharyngeal arch forms the body (anterior 2/3 of tongue) - GSA from trigeminal n. b/c its ectodermally derived
3rd arch forms root (posterior 1/3 of tongue) - GVA from glossopharyngeal n. because its endoderm
4th arch forms the epiglottic region of tongue (GVA from vagus n. b/c formed from endoderm)
muscle of tongue is formed from paraxial mesoderm of occipital somites
lateral cervical cysts
form when the cervical sinus fails to degernerate, these cyts are found on the ANTERIOR BORDER OF THE SCM
“ectopic glandular tissue”
branchial fistulas
occur when second arch fails to overgrow the third and fourth arches. the cervical sinus retains a connection with the surface (external fistula) in rare cases the lateral cervical cyst can open into the pharynx (internal fistula)
thyroglossal cyst
remanant of thyroglossal duct, ALWAYS LOCATED ON OR NEAR MIDLINE OF NECK
