Pharyngeal arches Flashcards
cysts
sealed cavity filled with air, pus, fluid
sinus
cavity within a tissue, can open externally
fistula
abnormal connection between 2 structures
migration
cells move (or don’t) during development
Proliferation
growth in cell number thru cell division
Genetics
mutations change patterns in migration, proliferation, etc..
how many pharyngeal arches are there?
5
when do pharyngeal arches emerge?
at neural tube closure
about 4 weeks of development
what is unique about the first arch
shows two prominences
- maxillary prominence
- mandibular promnence
what are the components found in each arch?
nerve, artery, cartilage, and muscular component
aortic arches
arise from mesoderm and bridge between the truncus arteriosus and the dorsal aorta
aortic arch 1
maxillary and external carotid
aortic arch 2
stapedial
aortic arch 3
common and internal carotid
aortic arch 4
aortic and subclavian
aortic arch 6
pulmonary
cartilage arch 1
meckel’s cartilage, maxilla, mandible, malleus, incus
cartilage arch 2
stapes, styloid process, lesser horn and upper portion of body of hyoid bone
cartilage arch 3
greater horn and lower portion of body of hyoid bone
cartilage arch 4-6
laryngeal cartilages
muscles arch 1
muscles of mastication
eg: temporalis, masseter, medial and lateral pterygoids
muscles arch 2
all muscles of facial expression
muscles arch 3
stylopharyngeus
muscles arch 4
constrictors of pharynx
muscles arch 6
intrinsic muscles of larynx
nerves of arch 1
trigeminal
