Pharynx

Version 1

Abstract

The principal variations of the pharynx are due to the persistence of the visceral clefts or to irregularities in their position. Various cases of this type have been described as pharyngeal diverticula or cervical fistulae. A pituitary nodule has been found in the pharyngeal wall.
