    Study Notes

    Pharyngeal Arch Development

    • Pharyngeal arches form during embryonic development
    • They are responsible for the development of structures in the head and neck
    • These structures include facial muscles, bones of the face and skull, cartilage and muscles of the larynx

    1st Pharyngeal Arch (Mandibular Arch)

    • Associated with the trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve V)
    • Supplied by the first aortic arch blood vessel
    • Muscles of mastication develop from this arch (temporalis, masseter, lateral and medial pterygoids)
    • Merkel's Cartilage forms within this arch
    • Eventually forms:
      • Mandible
      • Portion of the maxilla
      • Zygomatic bones
      • Squamous portion of the temporal bone
      • Malleus and incus of the ear

    2nd Pharyngeal Arch (Hyoid Arch)

    • Associated with the facial nerve (cranial nerve VII)
    • Supplied by the second aortic arch blood vessel
    • Muscles of facial expression develop from this arch
    • Reichert's Cartilage forms within this arch
    • Eventually forms:
      • Part of the hyoid bone
      • Styloid process
      • Stapes

    3rd Pharyngeal Arch

    • Associated with the glossopharyngeal nerve (cranial nerve IX)
    • Supplied by the third aortic arch blood vessel
    • Contains the stylopharyngeal muscle (helps with swallowing)
    • No cartilage forms within this arch
    • Eventually forms:
      • Part of the hyoid bone
      • Connective tissue of the thymus
      • Inferior parathyroid

    4th Pharyngeal Arch

    • Associated with the superior laryngeal branch of the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X)
    • Supplied by the fourth aortic arch blood vessel
    • Gives rise to laryngeal muscles
    • Forms cartilage of the larynx (thyroid, corniculate, and cuneiform cartilages)
