Pharyngeal Arches Flashcards
Two general phases of pharyngeal Arch development
1) Formation of pharyngeal System
2) Development of pharyngeal Derivatives
Cyst Definition
Sealed cavity filled with air, pus, fluid
Sinus Def
Cavity within a tissue. Can open externally
Fistula Def
Abnormal connection b/w 2 structures
Which Pharyngeal arch does not form?
Arch 5
When do pharyngeal arches emerge?
At neural Tube Closure
What are pharyngeal arches?
Ectodermal pushes filled with mesenchyme
When in timeline do pharyngeal arches emerge?
At 4 wks
How many arches can you see at start of wk 5 of the arches?
3-4 arches
What layers do pharyngeal arches contain?
All 3.5 Layers
What 5 components are in every arch?
1) Aortic Arch
2) Cartilaginous Rod
3) Muscular Component
4) Nerve
5) Neural Crest
What does the oropharyngeal membrane connect?
Stomodeum and primitive gut
What is the fate of Aortic arches 1&2
Disappear. Remains are:
1) Maxillary A.
2) Ext. Carotid A.
3) Stapedial A.
What is the fate of Aortic Arches 3,4&6
Remodeled into:
1) Int. carotid A.
2) Aortic Subclavian A.
3) Pulmonary A.
Where do Aortic Arches arise from?
From the mesoderm
What do Aortic Arches bridge?
The trunks arterioles and dorsal aorta
Structures formed through IO
