A 56 year old man…right arm weakness&difficulty of speaking:

1-      1)artery affected-MIDDLE CEREBRAL ARTERY

2-     2) position of cortical area affected:
-motor area4-precentral gyrus of left hemisphere
-broca’s speech area-post  part of inf frontal gyrus in dominant hemisphere.

3- part of internal capsule through which the fibres controlling the movement of are pass:
            anterior half of POSTERIOR LIMB.

4-tract carrying the motor fibres:pyramidal tract



ESSAY QUESTIONS:
1.Relation of post limb of internal capsule:between thalamus&lentiform nucleus.
-Fibers passing through post limb of internal capsule:
Ascending fibers
Descending fibers
Sup thalamic radiation
-corticospinal fibers
-frontopontine fibers
-frontorubral fibers/corticorubral


2.origin&course of facial artery in face:
Origin: arise from the ant aspect of external carotid A in upper part of neck.

Course:it reach the face by piercing the deep fascia of neck at lower border of mandible.
-then it curve at antero-infero angle of masseter.
-in face,it has tourtous course upward &forward anterior to ant facial vein.
-it end at the angle of eye by becoming the angular artery(lateral nasal artery).


3.The lobes &f(x) of cerebellum:

Ant lobe
Post lobe
Flocculonodular lobe
f(x)
Regulation of muscle tone
Coordination of movement
Concerned with equilibrium


4.Cranial nerve nuclei in the pons:
1-      trigeminal nuclei:
a)      motor nucleus:its axon form the motor root of trigeminal nerve which join the mandibulat nerve
b)      main sensory nucles:receive afferent touch&pressure sensation from trigeminal area fo face &scalp
send efferent fibres which cross to join the opposite trigeminal lemniscus

2-      abducent nerve nuclei:
site:in the post aspect of the lower part of the pons near the floor of 4th ventricle.
-it is encircle by the fibres of facial nerve,raising a bulge called the facial colliculus

 3- facial nerve nucleus:
a)      motor nucleus:it efferent fibres encircle the abducent nucleus then pass anterolaterally to emerge at junction between medulla &pons.

b)      Sup. Salivary nucleus:
its efferent fibres run in facial nerve as preganglionic parasympathetic fibres to relay in the spenopalatine &submandibular ganglia

3-      vestibulocochlea nucleus:

a)      vestibular nucleus:
b)      cochlea nucleus:dorsal &ventral nuclei lying dorsal&ventral to inf cerebellar peduncle in the lower part of the pons.they receive impulse from internal ear via cochle nerve.



5.Development of thyroid gland: (from slide dr wafaa)
·         the thyroid bud develops as andodermal thickening fromm floor of primitive pharynx between tuberculumm impar&copula of His of developing tougue at the midline

•        Blind end of thyroid budàdilatesà descend caudally to the level of ultimobranchial body (4th  pouch) which prevents its further descend in the thorax.

•        The hollow distal blind endà solid flask shapedà solid crescenticà solid bilobed.

•        Endodermal cells of thyroid budà thyroid follicles ( thyroxine).

•        Ultimobranchial bodyà parafollicular cells ( c- cells) à calcitonin.

•        Proximal part of the budà narrowà stalk attached to the tongue( thyroglossal ductà degenerate except at foramen caecum in the tongue.


Congenital anomalies of thyroid gland:
•      1- Persistant thyroglossal duct:
•         a- Accessory thyroid tissue formed from remnants of the duct.
•         b- Thyroglossal cyst : lies inferior to hyoid bone at the mid line of the neck ( movable with deglutition & painless).
•          c- Thyroglossal fistula: formed after rupture of the cyst.

•      2- Ectopic thyroid gland:
•         a- Lingual & sublingual thyroid due to incomplete descendà development inside or under the tongue.
•         b- Retrosternal thyroid : due to excessive descend.

•      3- Agenesis: due to failure of growthà critinism.

•      4- superficial thyroid: It lies superficial to infrahyoid muscles.

            4.pathway of vibration sensation from lower half of the body:GRACILE TRACT:
1st neuron
$dorsal root ganglia
-their central process enter the spinal cord &ascend (without relay)in post column as gracile tract to reach the medulla
2nd neuron
$gracile nuclei
-axon of these cells curve forward &medially forming the internal arcuate fibers which cross the medulla forming sensory decussation
-then thes fibers ascend in opposite side as medial lemniscus
-medial lemniscus ascend to terminate in PLVN of thalamus
3rd neuron
$PLVN of thalamus

       5.Development of tongue: (from slide dr wafaa)

1- The anterior  two thirds:

  Origin: The 1st  Pharyngeal arch (mandibular processes)à two lateral lingual processes+ one tuberculum imparà meet à fuse  à anterior  2/3  of the tongueà U shaped sulcusà mobile tongue leaving frenulum linguae.


2- The pharyngeal part (posterior  third):

Origin: 2nd and 3rd  pharyngeal archesà four swellings à meet à fuseà copula of Hisà posterior third of the tongue.

Musle of tongue:
—  Three or four occipital myotomes migrate to enter the tongue forming muscles of the tongue.
—  The occipital myotomes are supplied by the hypoglossal nerve which migrate with them to supply the tongue muscles during their development.

Congenital anomalies:
—  1- Bifid tongue: Due to incomplete fusion between the two lateral lingual swellings.
—  2- Trifid tongue: The tuberculum impar elongates& separates the lateral swellings à three parts.
—  3- Tie tongue ( ankyloglossia): due to attachment of frenulum linguae to the tip of the tongueà interfere with protrusion and speech.
—  4- Macroglossia: large tongue.
—  5- Microglossia: small tongue.
—  6- Hemiglossia: Non development of one lateral swelling.
—  7- Aglossia: no tongue.
