This Embryology category shows pages and media related to embryonic development in week 8, 53 - 54 days, GA week 10. The embryos have a crown rump length (CRL) of 22 - 24 mm.


There is also a specific Carnegie stage 21 resource page.

Events

  • Mandible Development[1] :"A considerable amount of bone-formation has taken place and formed a plate on the lateral side of Meckel's cartilage; this plate is in the substance of, and is surrounded by, that mesodermal condensation which outlines the mandible and precedes the formation of bone. The plate of bone is confined to the region of what approximately corresponds to the future body of the mandible, but the mesodermal condensation can be traced further backwards, always, of course, on the lateral side of Meckel's cartilage and the associated branches of the mandibular nerve. The condensation admittedly becomes gradually much less sharply defined but is still distinguishable from the surrounding tissue. Finally, some distance beyond the limit of bone-formation, the lateral pterygoid muscle can be seen running into and out- lining the terminal part of the mesodermal condensation. This is the first indication of the condylar process in my series (P1. 1, fig. 1). Meckel's cartilage with the inferior dental and lingual nerves on its upper surface lies medial to this rudimentary condylar area and inferior to the lateral pterygoid muscle."
