Q

Origin of the mesenchyme of the face and pharynx:

A

neural crest cells (for the skeletal elements)
•paraxial mesoderm (for striated muscle, dermis, endothelium of blood vessels, vertebrae)

Q

What is the significance of the fact that neural crest cells provide the mesenchyme for the skeletal elements of the face?

A

Neural crest cells migrate and differentiate. Through such differentiation they make a major contribution to the development of the face and ear, and abnormalities are associated with abnormal neural crest cell migration.

Q

Neural crest cells also provide the

mesenchymal components of the salivary, thyroid, parathyroid and thymus glands and type 1 cells of the carotid body, corneal epithelium of the eye and contributions to the developing heart (mesenchyme of the truncus arteriosus, cons cordis and endocardial cushions. May explain why congenital abnormalities of the face are sometimes associated with congenital heart defects.)

Ultimopharyngeal body = elongated portion of each ventral bud that will fuse with thyroid gland. Cells w/in bodies will become parafollicular cells (“C cells”) that produce calcitonin to regulate levels of calcium in the blood.

70
Q

Ultimopharyngeal body

A

elongated portion of each ventral bud that will fuse with thyroid gland. Cells w/in bodies will become parafollicular cells (“C cells”) that produce calcitonin to regulate levels of calcium in the blood.

71
Q

1st pouch

A

1st: middle ear, pharyngotympanic tube, tympanic membrane (endoderm)

72
Q

2nd pouch

A

2nd: palatine tonsils

73
Q

3rd pouch

A

3rd: inferior parathyroid glands, thymus

74

4th pouch

A

4th: superior parathyroid glands, ultimopharyngeal body, parafollicular “C cells” of thryoid galnd that produce calcitonin. These cells interdigitate throughout thyroid

75
Q

A

postnatal structure, the external acoustic meatus. As well as contribue to external surface of tympanic membrane.

76
Q

2nd-4th Pharyngeal Grooves/Clefts

A

During week 5, arch 2 begins to overgrow arches 3 + 4

Grooves 2-4 unite to form a depression or small pocket: the cervical sinus

77
Q

2nd arch overgrows, creates

A

cervical sinus. This will be absorbed. Abnormality = it stays (cervical cyst).

Fistula can also form

78
Q

Cervical (Branchial) Cyst

A

Remnants of a cervical sinus/vesicle or 2nd groove can form a fluid-filled cyst in the neck

Often develops just below the angle of the mandible

79
Q

Cervical vesicle normally

A

resorbed

80
Q

thyroid gland

A

The first endocrine gland to develop in the embryo

Develops as a ventral thickening & outpocketing of endoderm between arches 1 & 2 and descends below the hyoid bone + laryngeal cartilages as embryo grows

For a short time, the thyroid gland and tongue are connected by a narrow tube, the thyroglossal duct

81
Q

The thyroglossal duct will obliterate, but a small depression in the tongue remains as the

A

foramen cecum where the connection was

82
Q

3rd pouch

Dorsal buds

A

Inferior parathyroid glands

83
Q

Ventral buds

A

fuse together at midline, forming thymus

84
Q

4th pouch

A

Dorsal buds: Superior parathyroid glands

Develops from foramen secum in tongue

85
Q

foramen cecum

A

This will invaginate through tongue to form thyroglossal duct. Gland will continue to migrate to a position anterior to hyoid bone.This duct is normally resorbed.

If no resorption, you can have cysts along pathway.

86
Q

Thyroglossal Duct Cyst

A

result from imperfect closure of the thyroglossal duct
midline
may move with the tongue during swallowing

Without pouch or cleft, likelihood of cysts decreases.

87
Q

A

A median lingual swelling and 2 lateral lingual swellings develop at level of 1st arch- CN5

88
Q

Lateral lingual swellings grow, approach midline

A

& fuse, overgrowing median lingual swelling and forming anterior 2/3 of tongue

89
Q

The tongue begins to develop towards the end of the

A

4th week

90
Q

Tongue develops from…

A

Ddevelops from floor of pharyngeal apparatus with contributions from all arches. Thus, innervation of tongue is complicated

91
Q

Posterior 1/3 of tongue forms from

A

elevations in the floor of the pharynx:
-Copula (2nd arch level)
-Hypopharyngeal eminence
(3rd + 4th arch level)

92
Q

Hypopharyngeal eminence overgrows

A

the copula, forming the posterior 1/3 of tongue

93
Q

A

V-shaped line separating anterior 2/3 from posterior 1/3. Foramen cecum = midline for this.

94
Q
