Pharyngeal arches/ Branchial arches

in: AIIMS ANATOMY DNB NEET PG

Pharyngeal arches/ Branchial arches

Pharyngeal arches are structures that are critical to the understanding of the development and the anatomy of head and neck.

Sometimes they are referred to in the literature as visceral arches, or branchial arches, but the term pharyngeal arches is currently preferred.

 
What are pharyngeal arches?
Pharyngeal arches are a series of five paired swellings that may be seen to surround the embryonic foregut from day 20 to day 35 of development.

These arches are numbered 1,2,3,4, and 6.

Pharyngeal arches are unique to vertebrates.

Components of a pharyngeal arch
If you look at a coronal section of an embryo, you can see that a pharyngeal arch has ectoderm on the outside, endoderm on the inside, and mesenchyme between the two epithelia.

Mesenchyme derived from neural crest cells lies at the periphery, and the central core is filled with mesodermal mesenchyme.

Each arch has its own artery, nerve, cartilage rod “skeleton”, and a group of muscle cells.
