Pharyngeal Arches Flashcards
pharyngeal cleft
external invagination of ectoderm
-4 clefts
pharyngeal arches
core of mesenchyme
neural crest and paraxial mesoderm
each has own nerve and blood supply
6 total #5 regresses
neural crest
CT components
paraxial mesoderm
gives rise to muscles
pharyngeal pouches
internal evagination of pharyngeal endoderm
-4 pouches
arch 1
trigeminal
arch 2
facial
arch 3
glossopharyngeal
arch 4
vagus
arch 5
mostly regresses
arch 6
vagus - mostly recurrent laryngeal branch
arch nerves
only ones with an SVE component**
sensory info to face
trigeminal nerve

frontal prominence
maxillary process
mandibular ??
bones of arch 1
viscerocranium and malleus and incus
also CT of face and dermis
muscles of arch 1
