45
Q

What is the ultimobranchial body?

they have dorsal and ventral extensions

47
Q

True or false, pouch derivatives from the 3rd arch migrate further than the 4th arch.

A

true!

48
Q

Why are ectopic thymic tissue and parathyroid glands common?

A

because the thymus must descend to the mediastinum and the 3rd and 4th arches migrate (in general)

49
Q

What is the only pharyngeal groove that forms an adult structure? What is this structure?

A

1st cleft forms external auditory canal

50
Q

What happens with the other 3 pharyngeal grooves? Why is this important?

A

the 2nd pharyngeal arch grows down to cover the 3rd and 4th arches, this closes off grooves 2-4 so that we do not have gills

51
Q

What is formed by the overgrowth of the 2nd pharyngeal arch over the grooves?

A

lateral cervical sinus

52
Q

What is the common fate of the lateral cervical sinus?

A

usually obliterates and closes off

53
Q

What happens if the lateral cervical sinus does not close off? Where is this commonly identified in adults?

A

cervical cyst (found along the SCM muscle)

54
Q

Why is the ear said to be of “dual development”?

A

outer ear is formed from ectoderm

middle ear is formed from 1st pouch endoderm

55
Q

Name the 3 glands that are of “dual development”.

A

1) adrenal gland
2) pituitary gland
3) thyroid gland

56
Q

What is the origin of the adrenal gland?

A
cortex= mesoderm
medulla= neural crest cells
57
Q

What is the origin of the pituitary gland?

A

anterior: ectoderm (of Rathke’s pouch)
posterior: neural crest cells

58
Q

Does the thyroid gland develop from pouch endoderm?

A

NO!

59
Q

Describe the development of the thyroid gland.

A

thickening of midline floor endoderm at foramen cecum (thyroid diverticulum) and vertical descent

neural crest cells develop parafollecular (C) cells of the thyroid too!

60
Q

What connects the thyroid gland to the foramen cecum that usually obliterates in adulthood?

A

thyroglossal duct

61
Q

What is it called when ectopic remnants of the thyroglossal duct are left in the path of descent from the foramen cecum?

A

thyroglossal cysts

62
Q

Where are thyroglossal cysts usually found in patients?

A

midline of neck!

63
Q

What is the fate of the foramen cecum?

A

gets terminated into tongue and divides it into anterior 2/3 and posterior 1/3

64
Q

What is Pierre Robin sequence?

A

first arch syndrome (of neural crest cells) that results in:

  • poor mandibular growth
  • cleft palate
  • posteriorly placed tongue
65
Q

What is Treacher Collins syndrome?

A

first arch syndrome (of neural crest cells) that results in:

  • mandibular hypoplasia
  • zygomatic hypoplasia
  • malformed ears
  • etc.
66
Q

What is DiGeorge sequence?

A

pharyngeal pouches 3 and 4 fail to differentiate into the parathyroid glands and thymus (neural crest cell defect)

67
Q

The first arch forms what components of the developing tongue?

A
  • lateral lingual swelling

- median lingual swelling (tongue bud)

68
Q

The second arch forms what components of the developing tongue?

A

copula and facial nerve to taste buds

69
Q

The third arch forms what components of the developing tongue?

A

hypopharyngeal eminence (with a little help from 4?)

70
Q

The 4th arch froms what components of the developing tongue?

A

epiglottis

71
Q

What do the lateral lingual swellings form in the adult tongue?

A

anterior 2/3 of tongue (why innervation is via V3)

72
Q

What does the hypoharyngeal eminence form in the adult tongue?

A

posterior 1/3 (major)

73
Q

What does arch 2 contribute to in the developed tongue?

A

taste buds on anterior 2/3 of tongue (via CN VII) because the copula degrades

74
Q

Where do the 5 facial prominences arise from? What tissues?

A

first arch (mesoderm and neural crest)

75
Q

Name the 5 facial prominences.

A

1) frontonasal prominence
2&3) two maxillary prominences

A

oropharyngeal membrane breaks down by end of the 4th week

77
Q

The nasal placodes form in what facial prominence? When?

A

by 5th week, nasal placodes begin to thicken in the lower portion of the frontonasal prominence

78
Q

The frontonasal prominence forms what?

A

forehead and cranium

bridge of nose too!

79
Q

The mandibular prominences fuse to form what?

lateral part of the mouth

82

A

philtrum of upper lip, tip of nose, intermaxillary process

83
Q

The lateral nasal prominences form what?

A

ala of nose

84
Q

The maxillary prominence forms what?

A

89

What is more anterior palatine shelves or intermaxillary segment?

intermaxillary segment

90
Q

Explain the formation of the secondary palate.

Q

What are the 2 causes of cleft palate?

A

1) secondary palates fail to fuse with primary palate

2) secondary palates fail to fuse with each other
