16
Q

what does the inter maxillary segment give rise to

A

fuse to adjacent maxillary prominence to form upper lip

also gives rise to philtrum and primary palate

17
Q

Describe formation of the nasolacrimal duct

A

maxillary prominence fuses with lateral nasal prominence along nasolacrimal groove
then the duct forms from the ectoderm of this groove

18
Q

Describe formation of nasal cavities

A

nasal pits deepen and grow dorsally to produce nasal sacs which are separated from oral cavity by oronasal membrane

19
Q

when does the oronasal membrane rupture

A

week 6 and replaced by palate

20
Q

What structures develop from nasal sac ectoderm

A

olfactory epithelium and CN I

21
Q

Describe formation of primary palate

A

6th week is forms from intermaxillary segment and fuses with the nasal septum above and lateral palatine shelves posteriorly

22
Q

describe formation of the secondary palate

A

lateral palatine shelves form from maxillary prominences
palatine shelves project inferomedially on each side of tongue
weeks 7-8 migrate superiorly and fuse together with primary palate and midline nasaal septum

23
Q

What is the hard palate from

A

when the anterior 2/3 of palate ossifies

24
Q

the incisive foramen is a landmark between what

A

primary and secondary palates

25
Q

What are the most common craniofacial anomalies

A

clefts of lip and palate

26
Q

where is an anterior cleft and what causes it

A

anterior to incisive foramen
complete anterior cleft extends through lip
alveolar part of maxilla to incisive fossa
separates primary from secondary palate
caused by failure of maxillary prominence to fuse with inter maxillary segment

27
Q

where is a posterior cleft and what causes it

A

posterior to incisive foramen
lack of fusion of lateral palatine plates
cleft palate and or uvula

28
Q

What causes an oblique facial cleft

A

failure of maxillary process to fuse with lateral nasal prominence

29
Q

where is an oblique facial cleft

A

from mouth towards eye resulting in nasolacrimal duct not being incorporated into face

30
Q

What is the overal cause of craniofacial defects

A

neural crest defects

31
Q

What are names of neural crest defects

A

treacher collins syndrome, DiGeorge Anomaly
