Muscles for Facial Expressions01:14

Muscles for Facial Expressions

2.0K
The craniofacial muscles are a collection of approximately 20 thin skeletal muscles situated beneath the skin of the face and scalp. These muscles, primarily responsible for the vast array of human facial expressions, originate from the bones or fibrous structures of the skull and extend outwards to connect with the skin. While most skeletal muscles in the body are enveloped in thick fascia, facial muscles generally have a more delicate fascial covering, with the buccinator muscle being a...

Sutures of the Skull01:22

Sutures of the Skull

6.5K
The human skull is composed of several bones that come together to protect the brain and support the structures of the face. The junctions where these bones meet are called sutures.
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...

Overview of the Skull

4.4K
The cranium (skull) is the skeletal structure of the head that supports the face and protects the brain. It is subdivided into the facial bones and the brain case, or cranial vault. The facial bones underlie the facial structures, form the nasal cavity, enclose the eyeballs, and support the teeth of the upper and lower jaws.
The cranial vault surrounds and protects the brain and houses the middle and inner ear structures. This cavity is bounded superiorly by the rounded top of the skull, which...

Oral Cavity01:11

Oral Cavity

548
The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

Bone Formation by Intramembranous Ossification01:29

Bone Formation by Intramembranous Ossification

5.8K
Intramembranous ossification is one of the two processes involved in the development of bones within an embryo. The flat bones of the face, most of the cranial bones, and the clavicles are formed via this process. During intramembranous ossification, the bones develop directly from sheets of undifferentiated mesenchymal connective tissue.
The process begins when mesenchymal cells in the embryonic skeleton gather together and differentiate into osteogenic cells, which then develop into ...

Neurulation01:30

Neurulation

41.8K
Neurulation is the embryological process which forms the precursors of the central nervous system and occurs after gastrulation has established the three primary cell layers of the embryo: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. In humans, the majority of this system is formed via primary neurulation, in which the central portion of the ectoderm—originally appearing as a flat sheet of cells—folds upwards and inwards, sealing off to form a hollow neural tube. As development proceeds, the...

Area of Science:

  • Embryology
  • Craniofacial Development
  • Medical Diagnostics

Background:

  • Facial defects in newborns can arise from complex developmental processes during gestation.
  • Understanding the etiology of these rare conditions is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a rare facial defect detected in a term newborn.
  • To classify this embryonic defect based on anatomical involvement.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical observation and detection in the delivery room.
  • Classification of the defect based on embryological lines of development and affected facial structures.

Main Results:

  • A rare facial defect was identified in a term newborn immediately after birth.
  • The defect resulted from malunion during fetal facial development.

Conclusions:

  • This embryonic facial defect requires classification based on the specific areas of the face and associated structures involved.
  • Early detection and precise classification are key for understanding and managing such rare congenital conditions.
