The development of the head and neck is characterized by the formation of pharyngeal arches and pouches. The pharyngeal arches give rise to muscles, bones and cartilage in the head and neck region. Neural crest cells migrate into the arches and contribute to skeletal development. The pharyngeal pouches form important structures such as the ears, tonsils, thyroid and parathyroid glands. Congenital defects can occur if development of the arches, pouches or neural crest cells is disrupted.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

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

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
2. Introduction
• The most typical feature in development of the head and neck is
formed by the pharyngeal or branchial arches. These arches
appear in the fourth and fifth weeks of development.
• Initially, they consist of bars of mesenchymal tissue separated by
deep clefts known as pharyngeal (branchial) clefts.
• Simultaneously, with development of the arches and clefts, a
number of outpocketings, the pharyngeal pouches, appear along
the lateral walls of the pharyngeal gut(primitive pharynx).
3. Pharyngeal Arches
• Each pharyngeal arch consists of a core of
mesenchymal tissue covered on the
outside by surface ectoderm and on the
inside by epithelium of endodermal
origin.
• In addition to mesenchyme derived from
paraxial and lateral plate mesoderm, the
core of each arch receives substantial
numbers of Neural crest cells, which
migrate into the arches to contribute to
skeletal components of the face.
• The original mesoderm of the arches
gives rise to the musculature of the face
and neck.
• Thus, each pharyngeal arch is
characterized by its own muscular
components. The muscular components
of each arch have their own cranial nerve,
and wherever the muscle migrate, they
carry their nerve component with them.
• In addition, each arch has its own arterial
component.
4. First Pharyngeal Arch
• The first pharyngeal arch consists of
two processes: 1. the maxillary
process, and 2. the mandibular
process, which contains Meckel's
cartilage.
• Mesenchyme of the maxillary process
gives rise to the premaxilla, maxilla,
zygomatic bone, and part of the
temporal bone.
• Meckel's cartilage disappears except
for two small portions at its dorsal
end that persist and form the incus
and malleus. It also gives the anterior
ligament of malleus and the
sphenomandibular ligament.
• The mandible is formed by
membranous ossification of
mesenchymal tissue surrounding
Meckel's cartilage.
5. • Musculature of the first pharyngeal arch includes the muscles of
mastication (temporalis, masseter, and pterygoids), anterior belly
of the digastric, mylohyoid, tensor tympani, and tensor palatini.
• The nerve supply to the muscles of the first arch is provided by the
mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve.
• Muscles of the arches do not always attach to the bony or
cartilaginous components of their own arch but sometimes
migrate into surrounding regions. Nevertheless, the origin of these
muscles can always be traced, since their nerve supply is derived
from the arch of origin.
6. Second Pharyngeal Arch
• The cartilage of the second
or hyoid arch (Reichert's
cartilage) gives rise to the
stapes, styloid process of the
temporal bone, stylohyoid
ligament, and ventrally, the
lesser horn and upper part
of the body of the hyoid
bone.
• Muscles of the hyoid arch
are the stapedius,
stylohyoid, posterior belly of
the digastric, auricular, and
muscles of facial expression.
The facial nerve, the nerve
of the second arch, supplies
all of these muscles.
7. Third Pharyngeal Arch
• The cartilage of the third
pharyngeal arch produces
the lower part of the body
and greater horn of the
hyoid bone.
• The musculature is limited
to the stylopharyngeus
muscle. This muscle is
innervated by the
glossopharyngeal nerve,
the nerve of the third
arch.
8. Fourth and Sixth Pharyngeal Arches
• Cartilaginous components of
the fourth and sixth
pharyngeal arches fuse to form
the thyroid, cricoid, arytenoid,
corniculate, and cuneiform
cartilages of the larynx.
• Muscles of the fourth arch
(cricothyroid, levator palatini,
and constrictors of the
pharynx) are innervated by the
pharyngeal and superior
laryngeal branchs of the vagus,
the nerve of the fourth arch.
• Intrinsic muscles of the larynx
are supplied by the recurrent
laryngeal branch of the vagus,
the nerve of the sixth arch.
9.
10. Pharyngeal Pouches
• The human embryo has
five pairs of pharyngeal
pouches. The last one
of these is atypical and
often considered as
part of the fourth.
Since the epithelial
endodermal lining of
the pouches gives rise
to a number of
important organs, the
fate of each pouch is
discussed separately.
11. First Pharyngeal Pouch
• The first pharyngeal pouch forms a stalk-like diverticulum, the
tubotympanic recess, which comes in contact with the epithelial
lining of the first pharyngeal cleft, the future external auditory
meatus. The distal portion of the diverticulum widens into a
saclike structure, the primitive tympanic or middle ear cavity, and
the proximal part remains narrow, forming the auditory
(eustachian) tube. The lining of the tympanic cavity later aids in
formation of the tympanic membrane or eardrum.
12. Second Pharyngeal Pouch
• The epithelial lining of the second pharyngeal pouch
proliferates and forms buds that penetrate into the
surrounding mesenchyme. The buds are secondarily invaded
by mesodermal tissue, forming the primordium of the
palatine tonsil. During the third and fifth months, the tonsil is
infiltrated by lymphatic tissue. Part of the pouch remains and
is found in the adult as the tonsillar fossa.
13. Third Pharyngeal Pouch
• The third and fourth pouches are characterized at their
distal extremity by a dorsal and a ventral wing. In the fifth
week, epithelium of the dorsal wing of the third pouch
differentiates into the inferior parathyroid gland, while the
ventral wing forms the thymus. Both gland primordia lose
their connection with the pharyngeal wall, and the thymus
then migrates in a caudal and a medial direction, pulling the
inferior parathyroid with it.
14. Fourth Pharyngeal Pouch
• Epithelium of the dorsal
wing of the fourth
pharyngeal pouch forms
the superior parathyroid
gland.
• When the parathyroid
gland loses contact with
the wall of the pharynx,
it attaches itself to the
dorsal surface of thyroid
as the superior
parathyroid gland.
15. Fifth Pharyngeal Pouch
• The fifth pharyngeal pouch, the last to develop, is usually
considered to be a part of the fourth pouch.
• It gives rise to the ultimobranchial body, which is later
incorporated into the thyroid gland. Cells of the ultimobranchial
body give rise to the parafollicular, or C, cells of the thyroid gland.
These cells secrete calcitonin, a hormone involved in regulation of
the calcium level in the blood.
16. Pharyngeal Clefts
• The 5-week embryo is
characterized by the
presence of four pharyngeal
clefts, of which only one
contributes to the definitive
structure of the embryo.
• The dorsal part of the first
cleft penetrates the
underlying mesenchyme and
gives rise to the external
auditory meatus . The
epithelial lining at the
bottom of the meatus
participates in formation of
the eardrum.
17. • Active proliferation of mesenchymal tissue in the second
arch causes it to overlap the third and fourth arches; hence
the second, third, and fourth clefts lose contact with the
outside.
• The clefts form a cavity lined with ectodermal epithelium,
the cervical sinus, but with further development, this sinus
disappears.
18. Congenital anomalies
Birth Defects Involving the Pharyngeal Region include:
1. Ectopic Thymic and Parathyroid Tissue: Since
glandular tissue derived from the pouches undergoes
migration, it is not unusual for accessory glands or
remnants of tissue to persist along the pathway. This is
true particularly for thymic tissue, which may remain in
the neck, and for the parathyroid glands. The inferior
parathyroids are more variable in position than the
superior ones and are sometimes found at the
bifurcation of the common carotid artery.
19. 2. Branchial Fistulae: Branchial fistulae occur when the second
pharyngeal arch fails to grow caudally over the third and fourth
arches, leaving remnants of the second, third, and fourth clefts in
contact with the surface by a narrow canal. Such a fistula, found
on the lateral aspect of the neck directly anterior to the
sternocleidomastoid muscle, usually provides drainage for a
lateral cervical cyst. These cysts, remnants of the cervical sinus,
are most often just below the angle of the jaw, although they may
be found anywhere along the anterior border of the
sternocleidomastoid muscle. Frequently, a lateral cervical cyst is
not visible at birth but becomes evident as it enlarges during
childhood.
20. Internal branchial fistulas are rare; they occur when the
cervical sinus is connected to the lumen of the pharynx
by a small canal, which usually opens in the tonsillar
region. Such a fistula results from a rupture of the
membrane between the second pharyngeal cleft and
pouch at some time during development.
21. 3. Neural Crest Cells and Craniofacial Defects
• Neural crest cells are essential for formation of much of
the craniofacial region. Consequently, disruption of
crest cell development results in severe craniofacial
malformations. Since crest cells also contribute to the
conotruncal endocardial cushions, which septate the
outflow tract of the heart into pulmonary and aortic
channels, many infants with craniofacial defects also
have cardiac abnormalities, including persistent truncus
arteriosus, tetralogy of Fallot, and transposition of the
great vessels. Unfortunately, crest cells appear to be a
particularly vulnerable cell population and are easily
killed by compounds such as alcohol and retinoic acid.
Examples of craniofacial defects involving crest cells
include the following:
22. A. Treacher Collins
syndrome (mandibulofacial
dysostosis) is characterized
by malar hypoplasia due to
underdevelopment of the
zygomatic bones,
mandibular hypoplasia,
down-slanting palpebral
fissures, lower eyelid
colobomas, and malformed
external ears. Treacher
Collins syndrome is inherited
as an autosomal dominant
trait, with 60% of cases
arising as new mutations.
23. B. Robin sequence: Infants
usually have a triad of
micrognathia, cleft palate,
and glossoptosis (posteriorly
placed tongue). Robin
sequence may be due to
genetic or environmental
factors. It may also occur as a
deformation, as for example
when the chin is compressed
against the chest in cases of
oligohydramnios. The primary
defect includes poor growth
of the mandible and, as a
result, a posteriorly placed
tongue that fails to drop from
between the palatal shelves,
preventing their fusion.
24. C. DiGeorge anomaly occurs in
approximately 1/2,000 to 3,000
births and represents the most
severe example of a collection of
disorders that also includes
velocardiofacial syndrome (VCFS) and
conotruncal anomalies face
syndrome. All of these disorders are
part of a spectrum called 22q
deletion syndrome because they
result from a deletion on the long
arm of chromosome 22 (22q11).
Patients with complete DiGeorge
anomaly have immunological
deficiencies, hypocalcemia, and a
poor prognosis. Origin of the defects
is caused by abnormal development
of neural crest cells that contribute
to formation of all of the affected
structures. In addition to genetic
causes, exposure to retinoids
(vitamin A), alcohol, and maternal
diabetes can produce the defects.
25. D. Oculoauriculovertebral
spectrum (Goldenhar
syndrome) includes a number
of craniofacial abnormalities
that usually involve the
maxillary, temporal, and
zygomatic bones, which are
small and flat. Ear (anotia,
microtia), eye (tumors and
dermoids in the eyeball), and
vertebral (fused and
hemivertebrae, spina bifida)
defects are commonly
observed in these patients.
Other malformations, which
occur in 50% of cases, include
cardiac abnormalities, such as
tetralogy of Fallot and
ventricular septal defects.
26. Tongue
• The tongue appears in embryos of approximately 4 weeks in the form of
two lateral lingual swellings and one median swelling, the tuberculum
impar. These three swellings originate from the first pharyngeal arch.
• A second median swelling, the copula, or hypobranchial eminence, is
formed by mesoderm of the second, third, and part of the fourth arch.
• Finally, a third median swelling, formed by the posterior part of the
fourth arch, marks development of the epiglottis. Immediately behind
this swelling is the laryngeal orifice.
27. • As the lateral lingual swellings increase in size, they
overgrow the tuberculum impar and merge, forming the
anterior two-thirds, or body, of the tongue. Since the mucosa
covering the body of the tongue originates from the first
pharyngeal arch, sensory innervation to this area is by the
mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve. The body of the
tongue is separated from the posterior third by a V-shaped
groove, the terminal sulcus.
28. • The posterior part, or root, of the tongue originates from the
second, third, and part of the fourth pharyngeal arch. The fact
that sensory innervation to this part of the tongue is supplied by
the glossopharyngeal nerve indicates that tissue of the third arch
overgrows that of the second.
• The epiglottis and the extreme posterior part of the tongue are
innervated by the superior laryngeal nerve, reflecting their
development from the fourth arch.
• Some of the tongue muscles probably differentiate in situ, but
most are derived from myoblasts originating in occipital somites.
Thus, tongue musculature is innervated by the hypoglossal nerve.
• The general sensory innervation of the tongue is easy to
understand. The body is supplied by the trigeminal nerve, the
nerve of the first arch; that of the root is supplied by the
glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves, the nerves of the third and
fourth arches, respectively. Special sensory innervation (taste) to
the anterior two-thirds of the tongue is provided by the chorda
tympani branch of the facial nerve, while the posterior third is
supplied by the glossopharyngeal nerve.
29. Congenital anomalies
Tongue-tie
• In ankyloglossia (tongue-tie)
the tongue is not freed from
the floor of the mouth.
Normally, extensive cell
degeneration occurs, and
the frenulum is the only
tissue that anchors the
tongue to the floor of the
mouth. In the most
common form of
ankyloglossia, the frenulum
extends to the tip of the
tongue.
30. Other anomalies include:
• Bifid tongue: due to incomplete fusion of the two
lateral lingual swellings.
• Trifid tongue: the tuberculum impar elongates
and seperates the two lateral lingual swellings; so
the tongue is formed of 3 parts.
• Hemiglossia: due to suppression of one of the
two lateral lingual swellings.
• Aglossia: no tongue.
• Macroglossia or microglossia.
31. Face
• At the end of the fourth week, facial
prominences consisting primarily of
neural crest-derived mesenchyme and
formed mainly by the first pair of
pharyngeal arches appear.
• Maxillary prominences can be
distinguished lateral to the stomodeum,
and mandibular prominences can be
distinguished caudal to this structure.
The frontonasal prominence, formed by
proliferation of mesenchyme ventral to
the brain vesicles, constitutes the upper
border of the stomodeum.
• On both sides of the frontonasal
prominence, local thickenings of the
surface ectoderm, the nasal (olfactory)
placodes, originate under inductive
influence of the ventral portion of the
forebrain.
32. • During the fifth week,
the nasal placodes
invaginate to form
nasal pits. In so doing,
they create a ridge of
tissue that surrounds
each pit and forms the
nasal prominences.
The prominences on
the outer edge of the
pits are the lateral
nasal prominences;
those on the inner
edge are the medial
nasal prominences.
33. • During the following 2 weeks, the
maxillary prominences continue to
increase in size. Simultaneously,
they grow medially, compressing
the medial nasal prominences
toward the midline.
• Subsequently, the cleft between
the medial nasal prominence and
the maxillary prominence is lost,
and the two fuse. Hence, the
upper lip is formed by the two
medial nasal prominences and the
two maxillary prominences. The
lateral nasal prominences do not
participate in formation of the
upper lip.
• The lower lip and jaw form from
the mandibular prominences that
merge across the midline.
34. • Initially, the maxillary and lateral nasal
prominences are separated by a deep
furrow, the nasolacrimal groove. Ectoderm
in the floor of this groove forms a solid
epithelial cord that detaches from the
overlying ectoderm. After canalization, the
cord forms the nasolacrimal duct; its upper
end widens to form the lacrimal sac.
• Following detachment of the cord, the
maxillary and lateral nasal prominences
merge with each other. The nasolacrimal
duct then runs from the medial corner of
the eye to the inferior meatus of the nasal
cavity, and the maxillary prominences
enlarge to form the cheeks and maxillae.
• The nose is formed from five facial
prominences: the frontal prominence gives
rise to the bridge; the merged medial nasal
prominences provide the crest and tip; and
the lateral nasal prominences form the
sides (alae).

The frontonasal prominence is a single unpaired structure; the other
prominences are paired.
36. Palate
Intermaxillary Segment
• As a result of medial growth of the maxillary prominences, the
two medial nasal prominences merge not only at the surface but
also at a deeper level. The structure formed by the two merged
prominences is the intermaxillary segment. It is composed of
(a) a labial component, which forms the philtrum of the upper lip;
(b) an upper jaw component, which carries the four incisor teeth;
and (c) a palatal component, which forms the triangular primary
palate.
38. Secondary Palate
• Although the primary palate is derived from the intermaxillary
segment, the main part of the definitive palate is formed by two
shelf-like outgrowths from the maxillary prominences. These
outgrowths, the palatine shelves, appear in the sixth week of
development and are directed obliquely downward on each side of
the tongue. In the seventh week, however, the palatine shelves
ascend to attain a horizontal position above the tongue and fuse,
forming the Secondary palate.
39. • Anteriorly, the shelves fuse with the triangular primary
palate, and the incisive foramen is the midline landmark
between the primary and secondary palates. At the same
time as the palatine shelves fuse, the nasal septum
grows down and joins with the cephalic aspect of the
newly formed palate.

progression over weeks 7–8. Ventral view (top row) and

41. Congenital anomalies of face and palate
Facial Clefts
• Cleft lip and cleft palate are common defects that result in abnormal facial
appearance and defective speech. The incisive foramen is considered the
dividing landmark between the anterior and posterior cleft deformities. Those
anterior to the incisive foramen include lateral cleft lip, cleft upper jaw, and cleft
between the primary and secondary palates. Such defects are due to a partial or
complete lack of fusion of the maxillary prominence with the medial nasal
prominence on one or both sides. Those that lie posterior to the incisive
foramen include cleft (secondary) palate and cleft uvula.
42. • Cleft palate results from a lack of fusion of the palatine shelves, which
may be due to smallness of the shelves, failure of the shelves to elevate,
inhibition of the fusion process itself, or failure of the tongue to drop
from between the shelves because of micrognathia.
• The third category is formed by a combination of clefts lying anterior as
well as posterior to the incisive foramen. Anterior clefts vary in severity
from a barely visible defect in the vermilion of the lip to extension into
the nose. In severe cases, the cleft extends to a deeper level, forming a
cleft of the upper jaw, and the maxilla is split between the lateral incisor
and the canine tooth. Frequently, such a cleft extends to the incisive
foramen. Likewise, posterior clefts vary in severity from cleavage of the
entire secondary palate to cleavage of the uvula only.
43. • Oblique facial clefts are produced by failure of the maxillary prominence
to merge with its corresponding lateral nasal prominence. When this
occurs, the nasolacrimal duct is usually exposed to the surface.
• Median (midline) cleft lip, a rare abnormality, is caused by incomplete
merging of the two medial nasal prominences in the midline. This
anomaly is usually accompanied by a deep groove between the right and
left sides of the nose. Infants with midline clefts are often mentally
retarded and may have brain abnormalities that include varying degrees
of loss of midline structures (holoprosencephaly).
44.
45. • Cleft lip and cleft palate. A, incomplete unilateral cleft lip; B, complete unilateral cleft lip;
C, incomplete bilateral cleft lip; D, complete bilateral cleft lip and cleft palate (the nasal
septum and both inferior nasal conchae can be seen); E, cleft palate (the nasal septum and
left inferior nasal concha can be seen); F, cleft of the soft palate.
46. Nasal Cavities
• During the sixth week, the nasal pits deepen considerably,
partly because of growth of the surrounding nasal
prominences and partly because of their penetration into the
underlying mesenchyme. At first, the oronasal membrane
separates the pits from the primitive oral cavity by way of the
newly formed foramina, the primitive choanae.
47. • These choanae lie on each side
of the midline and
immediately behind the
primary palate. Later, with
formation of the secondary
palate and further
development of the primitive
nasal chambers, the definitive
choanae lie at the junction of
the nasal cavity and the
pharynx.
• Paranasal air sinuses develop
as diverticula of the lateral
nasal wall and extend into the
maxilla, ethmoid, frontal, and
sphenoid bones. They reach
their maximum size during
puberty and contribute to the
definitive shape of the face.
48. Thyroid Gland
• The thyroid gland appears as an epithelial proliferation in the
floor of the pharynx between the tuberculum impar and the
copula at a point later indicated by the Foramen cecum.
Subsequently, the thyroid descends in front of the pharyngeal gut
as a bilobed diverticulum. During this migration, the thyroid
remains connected to the tongue by a narrow canal, the
thyroglossal duct. This duct later disappears.
49. • With further development, the thyroid gland descends in front of the
hyoid bone and the laryngeal cartilages. It reaches its final position in
front of the trachea in the seventh week. By then it has acquired a small
median isthmus and two lateral lobes. The thyroid begins to function at
approximately the end of the third month, at which time the first
follicles containing colloid become visible. Follicular cells produce the
colloid that serves as a source of thyroxine and triiodothyronine.
Parafollicular, or C, cells derived from the ultimobranchial body serve as
a source of calcitonin.
50. Thyroglossal Duct and Thyroid
Abnormalities
• A thyroglossal cyst may lie at any
point along the migratory pathway
of the thyroid gland but is always
near or in the midline of the neck.
As indicated by its name, it is a
cystic remnant of the thyroglossal
duct. Although approximately 50%
of these cysts are close to or just
inferior to the body of the hyoid
bone, they may also be found at
the base of the tongue or close to
the thyroid cartilage. Sometimes a
thyroglossal cyst is connected to
the outside by a fistulous canal, a
thyroglossal fistula. Such a fistula
usually arises secondarily after
rupture of a cyst but may be
present at birth.
51. • Aberrant thyroid tissue
may be found anywhere
along the path of descent
of the thyroid gland. It is
commonly found in the
base of the tongue, just
behind the foramen
cecum, and is subject to
the same diseases as the
thyroid gland itself.
