2) Body of hyoid bone formed via hypopharyngeal eminence that formed via PA3 and PA4
Riechert’s Cartilage forms what?
1) Dorsal –> Stapes and Styloid Process of temporal bone
2) Perichondrium –> Stylohyoid ligament
3) Ventral end ossifies –> Lesser cornu/horn of hyoid bone
What is the structure that sensory hair cells are attached to in the Ampulla?
Cupulla
Mastoiditis
1) Infection of Mastoid cells
- Can spread into cranial fossa via petrosquamous cranial suture
- Treated w. antibiotics
What sensory structure do utricle and saccules contain
Maculae
First Arch Syndrome
Malformation of eyes, ears, mandible, and palate
Describe what happens when the basilar membrane vibrates
1) Basilar Membrane vibrates via sound
2) Movement of sterocilia –> K+ channels to open
3) Signal transferred to Bipolar neuron in spiral ganglion –> CN 8
Pharyngotympanic tube
1) connects tympanic cavity to nasopharynx
2) Equalizes pressure via opening
Once the Oropharyngeal membrane disintegrates, what mandibular prominences extend and fuse into what?
Lower Jaw and Surface of Upper Lip
What ossicle amplifies the vibratory force
Stapes
Structural Features of the Auricle
1) Concha of Auricle
2) Helix -(outer rim) and antihelix (inner rim)
3) Tragus (Protrusion overlapping external acoustic meatus) and antitragus
4) Lobule (contains non-cartilagenous)
4th Pouch
1) Dorsal Portion –> Superior Parathyroid glands
2) Ultimobranchial body –> Fuses w/ thyroid gland and gives rise to parafollicular to parafollicular cells
Structural Features of the Auditory Ossicles
1) Malleus, Incus and Stapes
- Tympanic membrane –> Malleus –> Incus –> Stapes –> Oval Window
How does de-amp occur
Tensor Tympani
Describe Pharyngeal Grooves
Located externally between pharyngeal arches, covered w/ ectoderm
PA2 gives rise to what generally?
1) Stapedius and Muscles of Facial Expression
What separates the LNP to the Maxillary Prominences
Nasolacrimal Groove
Action of Tensor Tympani
Pulls on handle to tense membrane and reduce amplitude
What defective protein is involved with TCS?
TREACLE
Tympanic Membrane
1) Inner surface = auriculotemporal n. V3
2) Outer Surface = small auricular branch of CN X
Basic Function of the Inner Ear
1) Changes sound mechanical energy into electrical energy
2) Balance via rotational and linear acceleration
Cupulla is displaced via fluid motion and this allows detection of what kind of velocity
Rotational
Describe the completed palate formation
1) Bone fomation extends from the premaxillary part of the maxilla to the maxillae and palatine bone
2) Gives rise to:
- Hard Palate (Formed from lateral palatine bones)
- Soft Palate (Posterior portions don’t ossify)
- Nasopalatine Canal persists in median plane and known as incisive fossa
What does the EAM contain?
1) Ceruminous glands (earwax)
2) Sebaceous gland
Tympanic Membrane Structure
1) Between the external and middle ear and has flaccid and tense portion
- Outer portion = stratified squamous
- Inner Portion - simple cuboidal
Basic Function of the Middle Ear
Amp. or De-amp of sound and equalization
What antibiotic must you avoid when treating a rupture ear drum?
Gentamicin
Thyroid Hemiagenesis (Unilateral failure of formation)
1) Left lobe is more commonly absent
- Mutations in the receptor for thyroid-stimulating hormone are likely involved
3rd Pouch
1) Dorsal portion differentiates into inferior parathyroid gland
2) Ventral portions for the thymus
Describe Cleft Lip
1) Cleft extends through upper lip
- Often clefting of the nose and/or maxilla
- Lack of fusion between maxillary prominence and medial nasal prominence
Thymus formation
Formed via ventral portion of 3rd pouch
What will the Maxillary Prominences give rise to?
1) Surface of upper lip
2) Portions of maxilla
3) Secondary Palate
What are nasal placodes
Primordia or nasal epithelium
Thyroid Formation
1) First endocrine gland to develop
2) Divides into right/left lobes connected by the isthmus
3) Definitive shape by 7th week and thyroglossal duct will degenerate
What boundary do mandibular prominence form?
Caudal Boundary of Stomodeum
How is the Opening of the Pharyngotympanic tube achieved
1) Levator Veli Palatine

3) Salpinopharyngeus
Sensorineural hearing loss
Reduction in sound level and/or fidelity due to damage to inner ear or auditory n.; affects hearing at different frequencies and intensities
