Medical Embryology - Development of the Pharyngeal Arches

This video goes in to the pharyngeal arches, an odd group of folds that contribute a variety of structures to the face and neck. We discuss the arches and their muscular, bony, and nervous features. We then talk about the grooves (outside) and pouches (inside) that create the ears and various glands. I hope you find it helpful!

Thank you. Seriously. Finally makes sense why the tympanic membrane has so many origins.

You're too good at explaining this, learned more on youtube than on uni. Greetings from Holland.

OK, Ignore that jerk videos are saving me in vet school.  Please make more videos for more difficult concepts!!!  These are incredible for visual learners like myself.  Also, to the jerk below, please do not reply to this comment, I really don't care to argue with you.  I am in professional school and don't have time for catty rudeness.  Keep up the amazing work, my friends and I really appreciate this stuff.  You seriously have like 1/3 of our class watching your videos.

this is absolutely redonkulously amazing. YOU ARE AMAZING. i think you reduced studying this from 3 hours to 30 minutes and i completely get it now. thank you so much!!!!

Great video. One correction though, B cells do not become  T cells. Immature T cells mature in the thymus, immature B cells mature in the bone marrow.

My entire developmental anatomy class in medical school didn't give me as much information as you did in this one single video. Preparing for STEP 1...thank you...you are amazing!

[xDramatikz]

Nice explanation of that. Just to answer your question in the video - The inferior parathyroid gland is actually attached to the thymus which migrates inferiorly taking the gland with it. That's why it ends up under the other one.

[tpjsmmlo]

yeah basically the sup. parathyroid glands begin at the lower 4th arch but don't move down much

while the inf. parathyroid glands start higher at the 3rd arch but end up moving down much more

so their names reflect their final positions after moving down (not their initial positions)

also great cranial nerve pathway videos really helped thank you

[pavithrashree]

Sir, You are the real lifesaver . thanks a lot . With gratitude from-India.

[nisreenjallad]

I read about embryos very much before but didn't understand the arches and pouches like now
Thanks a lot

[mipadre]

I have seen many pharingeal archs videos. and for more THIS IS THE BEST, for its simplycity and logical way of developing events and positions of developing organs.
Thank you so much

[matthewmitchell]

Mate this is a fantastic video and your attitude (genuine interest towards embryological development) is infectious. You've helped make a somewhat confusing topic as simple as possible but no simpler, thank you

[romeolhk]

This is gold man, this video deserves a nobel prize!

[KK_]

Thank you so much! I have a test in two weeks, and you just saved my life! Don't stop posting these videos. :)
Have a great week.

[tapanshah]

Absolutely brilliant.You are a great teacher and an asset to any university.Hope you are a lecturer and making anatomy simple for fellow students.I am writing my primaries exams in Orthodontics and find your vid a great help.God

[YasserAbbas]

really a very simplified easily digestible and crystal clear description of a very difficult topic i really appreciate  

[gloryclemmens]

Thank you so much, now I understand so much better than I ever could have after mugging up 20 pages of it
God bless you, and please keep up the good work!!!❣️❣️❣️❣️

[serenaa]

Excellent video! I was so lost since our lecture was 30 pages of words and I'm a visual/ auditory learner. Thank you SO much for this, helped me understand all this MUCH better.

[sydneyvrakas]

I certainly appreciate this video too. I was having so much trouble following the university lecture and understanding the reading material. Brilliant. Thanks so much.

[Nyzjoyfuljoy]

Mind = Blown!! Finally wrapped my head around this whole concept. Thank you Sir!
