Study Notes

  • Aortic arch derivatives are derived from branchial arch components of the aorta

1st Arch

  • Part of the maxillary artery is derived from this arch, it branches off of the external carotid artery

2nd Arch

  • Stapedial artery is from the second arch
  • Hyoid artery is from the second arch

3rd Arch

  • Common carotid artery is from this arch
  • The proximal part of the internal carotid artery comes from the 3rd arch

4th Arch

  • On the left side, the aortic arch is from the 4th arch
  • On the right side, the proximal part of the subclavian artery is from the 4th arch
  • The right recurrent laryngeal nerve loops around the subclavian artery

5th Arch

  • This does not exist

6th Arch

  • Proximal part of the pulmonary arteries on both sides
  • Left recurrent laryngeal nerve loops around the ductus arteriosus
  • Ductus arteriosus
  • Right recurrent laryngeal nerve loops around the right subclavian artery
