This document provides information on the anatomy of the ear. It describes the three parts of the ear - outer, middle, and inner ear. The outer ear includes the auricle, external acoustic meatus, and eardrum. The middle ear contains the tympanic cavity lined with mucosa and contains the three ossicles (malleus, incus, stapes) and two muscles (tensor tympani and stapedius). The inner ear houses the organs of balance and hearing. The document then provides detailed information on the anatomy and features of the tympanic cavity such as its boundaries, contents, blood supply, and clinical correlations.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
9. EXTERNALACOUSTIC MEATUS
• The external ear describes an S shaped curve and consist
of 3 parts:
• Pars Externa: directed upwards, forwards and medially
• Pars Intermedia: directed upwards, back and medially.
• Pars Interna: directed downward, forward and medially
11. CARTILAGINOUS PART
• Continuous with the
cartilage of the auricle.
• In upper and posterior part
of meatus, cartilage is
absent and is replaced by
fibrous membrane.
• Sometimes, three or more
fissures of Sartorini, affect
the anterior wall of
cartilaginous part.
12.
13. BONY PART
• Composed of tympanic plate of temporal bone below and
in front, and
• Squamous part of temporal bone in above and behind.
• A Tympanic Sulcus is present as the medial end of
meatus, where tympanic membrane is attached
obliquely.
• Floor and anterior wall of meatus is longer than the roof
and posterior wall.
14.
15. CONSTRICTIONS
• Two:
• At the junction of the bony
and cartilaginous part
• At the isthmus in the bony
part which lies about 2 cm
deep to the concha. It is the
narrower of the two.
16. LINING EPITHELIUM OF EAM
• Lined by skin, which is continuous externally with
the skin of the auricle and internally with the cuticular
layer of the tympanic membrane.
• The skin is adherent to the bones and cartilage of the
meatus, hence collection of inflammatory exudate
beneath the skin produces severe pain due to tension.
17. RELATIONS OF EAM
• In front: head of mandible separated by a part of
parotid gland
• Above the bony part: floor of middle cranial fossa
and epitympanic recess of tympanic cavity
• Postero-superior to the bony part: mastoid antrum
separated by mastoid air cells and a thin plate of bone
of only 1- 2mm thick.
18.
19. BLOOD SUPPLY
• Arterial supply:
– Posterior auricular branch of ECA
– Deep auricular branch of maxillary artery
– Anterior auricular branches of superficial temporal artery
• Venous drainage: external jugular vein and
maxillary veins – into pterygoid venous plexus.
20. NERVE SUPPLY
• Roof and anterior wall: auriculo-temporal nerve
• Floor and posterior wall: auricular branch of vagus
nerve ( nerve of alderman)
21. DEVELOPMENT
• It is developed from funnel shaped ectodermal
invagination from the dorsal part of the first branchial
cleft.
22. CLINICAL CORRELATES
• Excessive accumulation of ear wax sometimes blocks
the meatus and impedes the transmission of sound
vibrations.
• Inflammation of EAM is painful as the skin is
adherent to the adjacent structures and subcutaneous
collection produces tension.
23. TYMPANIC MEMBRANE
• The ear drum is oval, semi
transparent, pearly grey tri-
laminar membrane and
separates the EAM from
tympanic cavity.
• Max. diameter : 9-10mm
• Min. diameter: 8-9 mm
24. POSITION
• The membrane is places obliquely
at an acute angle of 55 degrees
with the floor of EAM.
• In newborns, the TM is almost
horizontal.
• The circumference of TM is made
up of fibro-cartilaginous ring
which is attached to the sulcus of
tympanic plate at the bottom of
EAM.
25. POSITION
• The sulcus is deficient
above, from the two
ends of which the
anterior and posterior
malleolar folds converge
to the lateral process of
malleus in the upper part
of tympanic membrane.
26. SUBDIVISIONS
• The malleolar folds divided the TM into two parts:
• Pars flaccida: small, triangular, lax area above the
malleolar folds. Sometimes it presents a small
perforation.
• Pars tensa: occupies the rest of the membrane which is
rendered taut by the attachment of the handle of malleus
and by the disposition of radiating fibers of the
intermediate layer from the handle.
27.
28.
29. SURFACES
• Lateral surface:
– concave,
– directed down, forward and laterally
• Medial surface:
– Convex
– Bulges towards the tympanic cavity
– Maximum point of convexity – Umbo
– This surface received the attachment of handle of malleus
which intervenes between the fibrous and mucous layers.
30. SURFACES
• Medial surface:
– The handle of malleus is crossed by chorda tympani nerve
which runs forward between the fibrous and mucous layers
of membrane at the junction of pars flaccida and pars tensa.
31. STRUCTURE
• From outside inwards, TM consist of three strata:
• Outer cuticular layer:
– Lined by hairless, keratinized stratified squamous epithelium,
and is continuous with skin of EAM.
– The cuticular layer is devoid of dermal papillae
• Intermediate fibrous layer:
– Consists of outer radiating and inner circular fibers
– The radiating fibers diverge from the handle of malleus to
periphery.
– The circular fibers are abundant in periphery and scanty in the
centre
32. STRUCTURE
• Inner mucous layer:
– lined by simple columnar or squamous epithelium with
patches of ciliated cells in upper part of membrane.
33. BLOOD SUPPLY
• Arterial supply:
1. Deep auricular branch of maxillary artery which
ramifies beneath the cuticular layer.
2. Stylomastoid branch of posterior auricular and
anterior tympanic branch of maxillary arteries : both
supply the mucous layer.
• Venous drainage:
• Outer layer – external jugular vein
• Inner layer – transverse sinus – pterygoid venous
plexus
34. NERVE SUPPLY
• The cuticular layer is supplied by:
1. Auriculotemporal nerve in the upper and anterior
part of membrane
2. The auricular branch of vagus nerve in lower and
posterior part of TM
• The mucous layer is supplied by glossopharyngeal
nerve through tympanic plexus.
35. DEVELOPMENT
• The TM is developed from three sources:
1. Cuticular layer develops from ectoderm of the dorsal
end of first branchial arch.
2. Intermediate fibrous layer is derived from mesoderm of
adjoining branchial arches.
3. Inner mucous layer – endoderm of tubo-tympanic recess
formed by fusion of dorsal ends of 1st and 2nd
pharyngeal pouches.
36. CLINICAL CORRELATES
• A surgical incision (myringotomy) should be made in
postero-inferior quadrant in order to avoid injury to
chorda tympani nerve and the ossicles of the ear.
39. INTRODUCTION
• Lies within petrous
part of Temporal bone.
• Filled with air and
lined by mucous
membrane.
• It assumes full adult
size at birth.
40. COMMUNICATIONS
