    Study Notes

    • In the early embryos of vertebrates, a series of structures similar to gills, called pharyngeal or branchial arches, develop on the sides of the pharynx.

    • The pharyngeal arches begin to form during the fourth week of gestation, when neural crest cells migrate around the pharynx and form discrete aggregations of mesenchymal cells.

    • These aggregations give rise to the six pairs of pharyngeal arches, which protrude on the lateral aspect of the developing head.

    • The external surface of adjacent pharyngeal arches are separated by invaginations of the surface ectoderm called pharyngeal clefts. The interior of the pharynx sees the endoderm of the lateral wall evaginating between the arches to form pharyngeal pouches.

    • In fish, the pharyngeal arches and pouches persist as the adult gills, while the branchial membranes, which form between the pouches and clefts, degenerate, leaving behind gill slits.

    • However, in terrestrial vertebrates, the pharyngeal arches, clefts, and pouches disappear, but their cells are used in the formation of various important organs of the head and neck.

    • The first branchial cleft, located between the first and second pharyngeal arches, contributes to the formation of the external ear. The auricle, or pinna, is derived from swellings on the first and second arches, while the external auditory meatus (ear canal) forms from the first branchial cleft.

    • The second, third, and fourth branchial clefts are temporarily enclosed inside of a transitory cervical sinus. If the cervical sinus persists, it may result in the formation of congenital cervical cysts, draining sinuses, or infested fistulae.

    • Each pharyngeal arch has similar components: a cranial nerve, an artery (one of the aortic arch), and specific skeletal and muscular components. The first pharyngeal arch, or mandibular arch, gives rise to the mandible, soft tissues of the lower jaw, and some of the major musculoskeletal components of the head and neck.

    • The first pharyngeal arch also forms the stomodeum, the precursor of the mouth, and the muscles of mastication, as well as some muscles of the middle ear and hyoid apparatus.

    • The larynx develops from the mesoderm, which forms the muscles and cartilages (arytenoid, thyroid, and cricoid) of the laryngeal wall.

    • The laryngeal cavity is lined by the endoderm, forming the laryngeal mucosa and vocal and vestibular folds.

    • The epiglottal swelling, an additional midline swelling in the pharynx, develops into the epiglottic cartilage, controlling the larynx's opening and closing.

    • The larynx and esophagus separate at the fourth pharyngeal arch, with the trachea allowing air passage to the lungs and the esophagus continuing dorsally for digestion.

    • Tracheoesophageal fistula is a congenital anomaly where the trachea and esophagus are connected, allowing food or milk to enter the lungs and cause breathing problems.

    • Oesophageal atresia is a condition where the esophagus ends in a blind-ended pouch instead of connecting to the stomach.

    • The trachea branches into the right and left primary bronchi and further divides into the bronchial tree, providing passageways for air and trapping debris.

    • The bronchial system begins forming early in gestation and continues until the postnatal period, with the pseudoglandular period marked by the development of small terminal bronchioles and the canalicular period marked by the formation of the respiratory zone.
