Cricoid Cartilage” B) Composed of Skeletal Muscle and Lined with Mucous Membrane

1) Pharynx (Throat): a) Starts at the internal nares and extends to the “Cricoid Cartilage” b) Composed of Skeletal muscle and lined with mucous membrane. c) Function: resonating chamber for speech. d) Superior portion nasopharynx (solely respiratory in function) A) Nasopharynx – (Superior portion of the pharynx) 1) Has 4 openings, 2 internal nares and 2 auditory tubes 2) Pharyngeal Tonsils on the posterior wall (adenoids when they are swollen) 3) Ciliated columnar Epithelium beat the dirty mucus down toward the pharynx B) Oropharynx – (middle portion of the pharynx) 1) Lined with nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium 2) Both respiratory and digestive 3) Palatine tonsils (soft palate) 4) Lingual Tonsils (base of the tongue) C) Laryngopharynx (Inferior portion of the pharynx) 1) Lined with nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium 2) Is respiratory and digestive 3) Becomes continuous with the esophagus 2) Larynx (Voice Box) mostly ciliated columnar epithelium a) Passageway that connects the pharynx with the trachea. When anything but air passes the larynx a cough reflex attempts to expel the material. b) Composed of 9 pieces of cartilage – 1) Single (Thyroid), 2) Single (epiglottis), elastic cartilage. In contact with the base of the tongue during swallowing, superior surface - stratified squamous epithelium, inferior surface – ciliated columnar epithelium 3) Single (cricoid), ring of hyaline that forms the inferior wall of the larynx. 4) Paired (arytenoids tension on vocal folds), hyaline 5) Paired (thyroid or Adam’s apple) hyaline cartilage. Larger in males due to the influence of testosterone during puberty. Connected to the hyoid bone by the thyro-hyoid membrane. 6) Paired (corniculate cartilage) elastic cartilage 3) Trachea (Windpipe) – located anterior to the esophagus and extends from the larynx to the 5th thoracic vert where it divides into the primary bronchi. A) Wall of trachea from deep to superficial (mucosa, submucosa, hyaline cartilage, and advertitia (areolar connective tissue). B) Mucosa - ciliated columnar epithelium moving dirt up toward the pharynx C) The dorsal side of the trachea is muscle and elastic connective tissue called the “Trachealis muscle” .

48 Anal Canal
Anal Canal The rectum is a relatively straight continuation of the colon about 12 cm in length. Three internal transverse rectal valves (of Houston) occur in the distal rectum. Infoldings of the submucosa and the inner circular layer of the muscularis externa form these permanent sickle- shaped structures. The valves function in the separation of flatus from the developing fecal mass. The mucosa of the first part of the rectum is similar to that of the colon except that the intestinal glands are slightly longer and the lining epithelium is composed primarily of goblet cells. The distal 2 to 3 cm of the rectum forms the anal canal, which ends at the anus. Immediately proximal to the pectinate line, the intestinal glands become shorter and then disappear. At the pectinate line, the simple columnar intestinal epithelium makes an abrupt transition to noncornified stratified squamous epithelium. After a short transition, the noncornified stratified squamous epithelium becomes continuous with the keratinized stratified squamous epithelium of the skin at the level of the external anal sphincter. Beneath the epithelium of this region are simple tubular apocrine sweat glands, the circumanal glands. Proximal to the pectinate line, the mucosa of the anal canal forms large longitudinal folds called rectal columns (of Morgagni). The distal ends of the rectal columns are united by transverse mucosal folds, the anal valves. The recess above each valve forms a small anal sinus. It is at the level of the anal valves that the muscularis mucosae becomes discontinuous and then disappears. The submucosa of the anal canal contains numerous veins that form a large hemorrhoidal plexus.

Head and Neck
DEFINITION OF ANATOMIC SITES WITHIN THE HEAD AND NECK adapted from the Summary Staging Guide 1977 published by the SEER Program, and the AJCC Cancer Staging Manual Fifth Edition published by the American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging. Note: Not all sites in the lip, oral cavity, pharynx and salivary glands are listed below. All sites to which a Summary Stage scheme applies are listed at the begining of the scheme. ORAL CAVITY AND ORAL PHARYNX (in ICD-O-3 sequence) The oral cavity extends from the skin-vermilion junction of the lips to the junction of the hard and soft palate above and to the line of circumvallate papillae below. The oral pharynx (oropharynx) is that portion of the continuity of the pharynx extending from the plane of the inferior surface of the soft palate to the plane of the superior surface of the hyoid bone (or floor of the vallecula) and includes the base of tongue, inferior surface of the soft palate and the uvula, the anterior and posterior tonsillar pillars, the glossotonsillar sulci, the pharyngeal tonsils, and the lateral and posterior walls. The oral cavity and oral pharynx are divided into the following specific areas: LIPS (C00._; vermilion surface, mucosal lip, labial mucosa) upper and lower, form the upper and lower anterior wall of the oral cavity. They consist of an exposed surface of modified epider- mis beginning at the junction of the vermilion border with the skin and including only the vermilion surface or that portion of the lip that comes into contact with the opposing lip.

Silent Reflux (Also Called LPR Or EOR)
Silent reflux (also called LPR or EOR) This leaflet explains what your condition is, why it happens, what the symptoms are and how it can be managed. If there is anything you don’t understand or if you have any further questions please talk to your doctor or nurse. What is silent reflux? Everyone has juices in the stomach which are acidic and digest and break down food. At the top of the stomach there is a muscular valve which closes to prevent food and stomach juices escaping upwards into the gullet. If this muscular valve (oesophageal sphincter) does not work very well, the stomach juices can leak backwards into the gullet, causing reflux or symptoms of indigestion (heartburn). However, in some people, small amounts of stomach juice can spill even further back into the back of your throat, affecting the throat lining and your voice box (larynx) and causing irritation and hoarseness. This is known as laryngo pharyngeal reflux (LPR) or extra oesophageal reflux (EOR). Its common name is 'silent reflux' because many people do not experience any of the classic symptoms of heartburn or indigestion. Silent reflux can occur during the day or night, even if a person hasn't eaten anything. Usually, however, silent reflux occurs at night. What are the symptoms of silent reflux? The most common symptoms are: • A sensation of food sticking or a feeling of a lump in the throat. • A hoarse, tight or 'croaky' voice. • Frequent throat clearing. • Difficulty swallowing (especially tablets or solid foods). • A sore, dry and sensitive throat. • Occasional unpleasant "acid" or "bilious" taste at the back of the mouth.

PE3334 Difficulty Swallowing (Dysphagia)
Difficulty Swallowing (Dysphagia) This handout talks about problems your child has in the throat (pharynx) when they swallow, how we diagnose it and how we treat it. What is dysphagia? Dysphagia means difficulty swallowing. Food and drink can get stuck (dis-FAY-je-ya) in the esophagus or “go down the wrong pipe” to the lungs (called aspiration) instead of the stomach. It can also go into the voice box but not all the way into the lungs (called penetration). Epiglottis up for breathing Mouth Throat Liquid in throat (oral (pharyngeal cavity) space) Epiglottis down for eating and drinking Windpipe Liquid in Swallowing tube (Airway or airway (Esophagus) Trachea) Where does dysphagia Difficulty swallowing can happen in 3 places: in the mouth (oral happen? dysphagia), in the throat (pharyngeal dysphagia), and in the swallowing tube (esophageal dysphagia).

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.
