  • Embryology of Branchial Region
    TRANSCRIPTIONS OF NARRATIONS FOR EMBRYOLOGY OF THE BRANCHIAL REGION Branchial Arch Development, slide 2 This is a very familiar picture - a median sagittal section of a four week embryo. I have actually done one thing correctly, I have eliminated the oropharyngeal membrane, which does disappear sometime during the fourth week of development. The cloacal membrane, as you know, doesn't disappear until the seventh week, and therefore it is still intact here, but unlabeled. But, I've labeled a couple of things not mentioned before. First of all, the most cranial part of the foregut, that is, the part that is cranial to the chest region, is called the pharynx. The part of the foregut in the chest region is called the esophagus; you probably knew that. And then, leading to the pharynx from the outside, is an ectodermal inpocketing, which is called the stomodeum. That originally led to the oropharyngeal membrane, but now that the oropharyngeal membrane is ruptured, the stomodeum is a pathway between the amniotic cavity and the lumen of the foregut. The stomodeum is going to become your oral cavity. Branchial Arch Development, slide 3 This is an actual picture of a four-week embryo. It's about 5mm crown-rump length. The stomodeum is labeled - that is the future oral cavity that leads to the pharynx through the ruptured oropharyngeal membrane. And I've also indicated these ridges separated by grooves that lie caudal to the stomodeum and cranial to the heart, which are called branchial arches. Now, if this is a four- week old embryo, clearly these things have developed during the fourth week, and I've never mentioned them before.

  • DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Generalized Insect Alimentary Tract the Digestive System Is Just a Tube Within a Surrounding Tube Called the Body
    DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Generalized insect alimentary tract The digestive system is just a tube within a surrounding tube called the body. It starts with a mouth and ends with the anus. What goes on in between depends on the insect, its life stage and what it eats. The origin of the digestive tract. At the anterior pole of the embryo an indentation forms that will be the foregut or stomodeum. At the other end a similar thing occurs and the proctodeum or hindgut is formed. Both are lined by cuticle. They both are of ectodermal origin while the midgut is of mesodermal origin and is also called the mesenteron. This different origin of the midgut from the endoderm and not the ecotoderm probably explains why it is not lined with cuticle Anterior midgut invagination.

  • Early Vaginal Replacement in Cloacal Malformation
    Pediatric Surgery International (2019) 35:263–269 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00383-018-4407-1 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Early vaginal replacement in cloacal malformation Shilpa Sharma1 · Devendra K. Gupta1 Accepted: 18 October 2018 / Published online: 30 October 2018 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Purpose We assessed the surgical outcome of cloacal malformation (CM) with emphasis on need and timing of vaginal replacement. Methods An ambispective study of CM was carried out including prospective cases from April 2014 to December 2017 and retrospective cases that came for routine follow-up. Early vaginal replacement was defined as that done at time of bowel pull through. Surgical procedures and associated complications were noted. The current state of urinary continence, faecal continence and renal functions was assessed. Results 18 patients with CM were studied with median age at presentation of 5 days (1 day–4 years). 18;3;2 babies underwent colostomy; vaginostomy; vesicostomy. All patients underwent posterior sagittal anorectovaginourethroplasty (PSARVUP)/ Pull through at a median age of 13 (4–46) months. Ten patients had long common channel length (> 3 cm). Six patients underwent early vaginal replacement at a median age of 14 (7–25) months with ileum; sigmoid colon; vaginal switch; hemirectum in 2;2;1;1. Three with long common channel who underwent only PSARVUP had inadequate introitus at puberty. Complications included anal mucosal prolapse, urethrovaginal fistula, perineal wound dehiscence, pyometrocolpos, blad- der injury and pelvic abscess. Persistent vesicoureteric reflux remained in 8. 5;2 patients had urinary; faecal incontinence. 2 patients of uterus didelphys are having menorrhagia.
