Q

What muscles do the 4th and 6th pharyngeal arches form?

A

Inner muscles of the larynx

24
Q

What can be found between each arch on their external surface?

A

Pharyngeal clefts

25
Q

What can be found between each arch on their internal surface?

A

Pharyngeal pouches

26
Q

What do the pharyngeal clefts give rise to?

A

They will all disappear and the only one to remain will be the first pharyngeal cleft.

The 1st pharyngeal cleft will form the external auditory meatus.

27
Q

What happens if the pharyngeal clefts don’t disappear?

A

Remnant pharyngeal clefts can become branchial (pharyngeal) cysts anterior to SCM or branchial (pharyngeal) fistulae.

28
Q

What do the pharyngeal pouches give rise to?

A

Important glandular structures.

29
Q

What does the 1st pharyngeal pouch give rise to?

A

Becomes the tympanic cavity.

Forms the eustachian tube and the middle ear cavity.

30
Q

What does the 2nd pharyngeal pouch give rise to?

A

Palatine tonsil

31
Q

What does the 3rd pharyngeal pouch give rise to?

A

Inferior parathyroid

Thymus

32
Q

What does the 1st pharyngeal pouch give rise to?

A

Superior parathyroid

C cells of the thyroid

33
Q

What are the arches, clefts and the pouches collectively called?

A

Pharyngeal apparatus

34
Q

The development of the face involves five building blocks.

Which?

There is a sixth structure involved. Which?

A

Frontonasal prominence

Two maxillary prominences

Two mandibular prominences

6th:

Stomatodaeum

35
Q

What do the two maxillary prominences arise from?

A

1st pharyngeal arch

36
Q

What do the mandibular prominences arise from?

A

1st pharyngeal arch.

37
Q

What will the frontonasal prominence form?

A

Forehead

Bridge of nose

Medial and lateral nasal prominences.

38
Q

What will the medial and lateral nasal prominences form?

A

Medial: Philtrum, first palate and mid upper jaw

Lateral: Sides of the nose

39
Q

What will the maxillary prominences form?

A

Cheeks

Upper jaw

Lateral upper lip

Sides of the nose

40
Q

What will the mandibular prominences form?

A

Lower third of the face

Lower jaw

Lower lip

41
Q

What will the stomatodaeum become?

A

The future mouth and the buccopharyngeal membrane

42
Q

Briefly explain the development of the face derived from the five building blocks.

A

The five prominences will fold around the stomatodaeum to form the face.

43
Q

Explain the development of the nose.

A

Two ectodermal thickenings known as nasal placodes will thicken and differentiate. They will form on either side of the midline on the frontonasal prominence.

The nasal placodes will invaginate to form the nasal pits. The entrance to each pit will become the nostrils. Medial and lateral nasal prominences form on either side of the pits.

The nasal pits are separated by the oronasal membrane. This membrane will disappear and the oral and nasal cavities will become one continuous space.

44
Q

In adults the oral and nasal cavities are not one continous space. How are they separated?

A

By the palate.

45
Q

Explain the development of the palate.

A

The maxillary prominences start to grow medially. This pushes the nasal prominences closer together in the midline.

The medial nasal prominences merge in the midline to separate the nostrils from the mouth to create the intermaxillary segment and forms the philtrum. They also form a small midline component known as the primary palate.

The maxillary prominences gives rise to two palatal shelves. The mandible grows large enough to allow the tongue to drop. The palatal shelf from each maxillary prominence grows towards the midline. These palatal shelves fuse with the primary palate to form the secondary palate. The main part of the palate in adults is the secondary palate.

The secondary palate separates the nasal cavity from the oral cavity.

46
Q

Give examples of different cleft lips.

A

Lateral cleft lip

Cleft lip & cleft palate

47
Q

Explain how lateral cleft lip comes about.

A

Failure of fusion of the medial nasal prominent and the maxillary prominence.

Can also involve the primary palate.

48
Q

Explain how cleft lip & cleft palate come about.

A

Combined failure of fusion of medial nasal prominence and maxillary prominence

with

failure of palatal shelves to meet in the midline.

49
Q

Causes of cleft lip

A

Genetic and environmental

50
Q

How to diagnose cleft lip.

A

Ultrasounds scan in utero.

Or after delivery

51
Q

Complications of cleft lip.

A

Aesthetics

Troubles feeding

Speech development

52
Q

Treatment of cleft lip.

A

Cleft lips are treated around 3 months old by surgery.

Cleft palates are treated around 9-12 months old by surgery

53
Q

Briefly explain the development of the ear.

A

External auditory meatus develops from the 1st pharyngeal cleft.

The middle ear cavity develop from the 1st pharyngeal pouch.

The ossicles develop from the cartilages of the 1st and 2nd arches (Meckel’s and Reichert’s)

The auricles (external ear) develpo from the proliferation (swelling) within the 1st and 2nd pharyngeal arches to surround the meatus.

54
Q

Explain the positioning of the ears.

A

External ears develop initially from the neck and as the mandible grows the ears will be pushed upwards and to the sides of the head to lie in line with the eyes.

(All common chromosomal abnormalities have associated external ear anomalies)

55
Q

Explain fetal alcohol syndrome.

A

No known safe level of alcohol consumption during pregnancy.

The facial skeleton derives from neural crest cells and populate the pharyngeal arches. The neural crest migration as well as the development of the brain are known to be extermely sensitive to alcohol.
