FinalEmbryo Flashcards
2 Sections of 1st Pharyngeal Arch
Maxillary and mandibular prominences
Stomodeum
Primitive oral cavity derived from ectoderm kind of in maxillary prominence of 1st pharyngeal arch
Cranial Neural Crest Cells Action
Systematically populate areas forming face and pharyngeal arches
6 Derivatives of Neural Crest Cells
Connective tissue/bones of face and skull Cranial n.s Sympathetic ganglia Cells of thyroid gland Odontoblasts Dermis in face/neck
4 Components of Each Pharyngeal Arch
1) Mesenchymal core derived from mesoderm and neural crest
2) an artery
3) a cranial nerve
4) Specific muscular & skeletal contributions to head and neck
Primitive Aorta Branches Development
In the pharyngeal arch mesenchyme b/w pouches of the pharynx
4.2 Cranial Nerve Pharyngeal Arch Origins
1st arch: V
2nd arch: VII
3rd arch: IX
4th and 6th arches: X (& cranial parts of spinal accessory XI)
Arch Cartilages
Participate in bone formation in head/neck
3 Derivations from Maxillary Process of 1st Arch
Maxilla, zygomatic process, part of temporal bone
4 Derivations from Mandibular Process of 1st Arch
Meckel’s cartilage gives rise to intra-membranous mandibular bone, incus, and malleus
6 Derivations from 2nd Pharyngeal Arch
Reichart’s cartilage gives rise to stapes, styloid process, stylohyoid ligament, and lesser horn/upper body of hyoid bone
3rd Arch 2 Derivations
Lower body and greater horn of hyoid bone
4th/6th arch Derivations
Laryngeal cartilages
Difference b/w Pharyngeal Clefts and Pouches
Clefts invaginating in from outside, pouches invaginating out from inside
4 Derivations of Pharyngeal Pouches/Arches
Tympanic cavity
Palatine tonsils
Thymus
Endocrine glands
4 Migrating Pharyngeal Structures
Thyroid, thymus, parathyroids, and ultimobranchial bodies
Parathyroid gland migration
Glands from 3rd pouch migrate past those from 4th pouch to become the inferior parathyroid glands
Foramen cecum
Where thyroid migrates from
Cervical cysts/fistulas (2)
Originate from embryonic clefts and reflect original positioning of branchial clefts
2 Remnants/Complications of Thyroid Migration
Thyroglossal cysts - can be anywhere, 50% near hyoid though
Aberrant thyroid tissue - can remain anywhere, subject to same diseases as main body
Tongue Formation
Consecutive regions develop front to back from tissues associated w/ 1st through 4th arches, explaining the V, VII, IX, X sensory pattern
5 Prominences of Face Development
- Frontonasal
2-3. Medial and lateral nasal - Maxillary
- Mandibular
Primary Palate Formation (action and 4 derivations)
Midline fusion of median nasal prominences (intermaxillary segment) contributes to philtrum of upper lip, upper jaw and 4 incisors, and primary palatal triangle
