STEP 7 1. Anatomi, fisiologi, dan histologi faring dan tonsil?

Nasopharynx

The upper portion of the pharynx, the nasopharynx, extends from the base of the skull to the upper surface of the soft palate. It includes the space between the internal nares and the soft palate and lies above the oral cavity. The adenoids, also known as the pharyngeal tonsils, are lymphoid tissue structures located in the posterior wall of the nasopharynx. The nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx or larynx can be seen clearly in this sagittal section of the head and neck. Polyps or mucus can obstruct the nasopharynx, as can congestion due to an upper respiratory infection. The eustachian tubes, which connect the middle ear to the pharynx, open into the nasopharynx. The opening and closing of the eustachian tubes serves to equalize the barometric pressure in the middle ear with that of the ambient atmosphere. The anterior aspect of the nasopharynx communicates through the choanae with the nasal cavities. On its lateral walls are the pharyngeal ostia of the auditory tube, somewhat triangular in shape, and bounded behind by a firm prominence, the torus tubarius or cushion, caused by the medial end of the cartilage of the tube that elevates the mucous membrane. Two folds arise from the cartilaginous opening:

UKKIE – modul tht lbm 4 (tonsilitis)

the salpingopharyngeal fold, a vertical fold of mucous membrane extending from the inferior part of the torus and containing the salpingopharyngeus muscle the salpingopalatine fold, a smaller fold extending from the superior part of the torus to the palate and containing the levator veli palatini muscle. The tensor veli palatini is lateral to the levator and does not contribute the fold, since the origin is deep to the cartilaginous opening. Behind the opening of the auditory tube is a deep recess, the pharyngeal recess (also referred to as the fossa of Rosenmüller). On the posterior wall is a prominence, best marked in childhood, produced by a mass of lymphoid tissue, which is known as the pharyngeal tonsil. Superior to the pharyngeal tonsil, in the midline, an irregular flaskshaped depression of the mucous membrane sometimes extends up as far as the basilar process of the occipital bone, this is known as the pharyngeal bursa. Oropharynx

The oropharynx lies behind the oral cavity, extending from the uvula to the level of the hyoid bone. It opens anteriorly, through the isthmus faucium, into the mouth, while in its lateral wall, between the Palatoglossal arch and the Palatopharyngeal arch, is the palatine tonsil. The anterior wall consists of the base of the tongue and the epiglottic vallecula; the lateral wall is made up of the tonsil, tonsillar fossa, and tonsillar (faucial) pillars; the superior wall consists of the inferior surface of the soft palate and the uvula. Because both food and air pass through the pharynx, a flap of connective tissue called the epiglottis closes over the glottis when food is swallowed to prevent aspiration. The oropharynx is lined by non-keratinised squamous stratified epithelium. Laryngopharynx

The laryngopharynx, (Latin: pars laryngea pharyngis), is the caudal part of the pharynx; it is the part of the throat that connects to the esophagus. It lies inferior to the epiglottis and extends to the location where this common pathway diverges into the respiratory (larynx) and digestive (esophagus) pathways. At that point, the laryngopharynx is continuous with the esophagus posteriorly. The esophagus conducts food and fluids to the stomach; air enters the larynx anteriorly. During swallowing, food has the "right of way", and air passage temporarily stops. Corresponding roughly to the area located between the 4th and 6th cervical vertebrae, the superior boundary of the laryngopharynx is at the level of the hyoid bone. The laryngopharynx includes three major sites: the pyriform sinus, postcricoid area, and the posterior pharyngeal wall. Like the oropharynx above it, the laryngopharynx serves as a passageway for food and air and is lined with a stratified squamous epithelium. It is innervated by the pharyngeal plexus.

The vascular supply to the hypopharynx includes the superior thyroid artery, the lingual artery and the ascending pharyngeal artery. The primary neural supply is from both the vagus and glossopharyngeal nerves. The vagus nerve provides a branch termed "Arnolds Nerve" which also supplies the external auditory canal, thus hypophayrngeal cancer can result in referred otalgia. This nerve is also responsible for the ear-cough reflex in which stimulation of the ear canal results in a person coughing.  Pharyngeal lymphatic ring(waldeyer lymphatic ring):

Applied anatomy of pharynx, Wang Peihua, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, 9th people’s hospital, School of medicine, Shanghai Jiaotong University.

Tonsils are lymphoepithelial organs at the opening of the upper aerodigestive tract. From above downwards, they can be divided into 1.

pharyngeal tonsil, adenoid, which lies on the roof and posterior wall of the nasopharynx

2.

tubal tonsil which lies around the eustachain tube

3.

palatine tonsil which lies between the anterior and posterior faucial pillars

4.

lingual tonsil which lies at the base of the tongue These lymphoid organs developed from the epithelium of the primitive oronasal cavity,

the mesenchymal stroma and lymphoid cells then infiltrate these areas. Although the tonsils are present at embryonal stage, they only acquire their typical structure in thepostnatal period. They begin increasing rapidly in size between the first and third year of life, with peaks in the third and seventh year. They involute slowly at early puberty. In contrast to other lymphoid aggregates, tonsils do not filter lymph.

The human palatine tonsils (PT) are covered by stratified squamous epithelium that extends into deep and partly branched tonsillar crypts, of which there are about 10 to 30. The crypts greatly increase the contact surface between environmental influences and lymphoid tissue. The tonsillar crypts often provide such an i nviting environment to bacteria that bacterial colonies may form solidified "plugs" or "stones" within the crypts. In particular, sufferers of chronic sinusitis or post-nasal drip frequently suffer from these overgrowths of bacteria in the tonsillar crypts.[medical citation needed] these small whitish plugs, termed "tonsilloliths" and sometimes known as "tonsil stones".

Diagnosis of tonsillitis is based on a medical history and a physical exam of the throat. An accurate medical history is needed to find out whether tonsillitis is recurrent, which may affect treatment choices. If your symptoms suggest strep throat, your doctor may want to confirm this diagnosis by doing a throat culture. Strep throat is more likely if 3 or 4 of the following signs or symptoms are present: Fever

White or yellow spots or coating on the throat and/or tonsils (tonsillar exudates) Swollen or tender lymph nodes on the neck Absence of coughing or sneezing

If a strep infection is suspected, your doctor may do a rapid strep test   or a throat culture or both . Both of these tests can be done in a doctor's office. You may want to

discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each test to see which test is appropriate. The results of these tests will determine whether antibiotic treatment is needed. These results combined with an accurate medical history will be considered in deciding whether surgery to remove the tonsils (tonsillectomy) is recommended. If the Epstein-Barr virus, which can cause mononucleosis, is suspected as a cause f or the tonsillitis, a test for mononucleosis  may be done. http://www.emedicinehealth.com/tonsillitis-health/page6_em.htm

Tonsilitis

The most active phase of tonsils is between age 3 to 10 years and after that involution begins. Although hyperplasia of tonsils is not a disease, these organs are found to have a higher incidence of pathogenic bacteria around the poorly-drained tonsillar crypts resulting in tonsillitis. Majority of childhood tonsillitis are caused by group A £]-haemolytic streptococcus (GABHS). Its frequency and serious consequences such as acute rheumatic fever and glomerulonephritis make this an important infection. Viral causes are also common including coxsackievirus, herpesvirus and Epstein-Barr virus. However, it was found that with recurrent attacks of tonsillitis, the type and number of organisms changes from a commensal to greater varieties of bacteria and thus requiring different broadspectrum antibiotics. Therefore the use of throat culture to arrive at the diagnosis is inaccurate. Clinically, the patients presented with sorethroat, fever and malaise. Physical examination may nor may not show enlarged tonsils, but exudates, erythema are seen. Cervical lymph nodes may be enlarged and tender. Definition of recurrent acute tonsillitis is varible. We take more than 4 episodes in one year or 7 episodes in 1 year, 5 episodes per year for 2 years or 3 episodes per year for 3 years . Recurrent acute tonsillitis and chronic tonsillitis can give rise to peritonsillar abscess. Further spread of the infection beyond the peritonsillar space and lateral aspect of tonsillar fossa can lead to parapharyngeal space abscess. In addition, children under age 3 with tonsillitis are more susceptible to retropharyngeal space infection. Affected children will present as irritability, fever, difficulty in breathing and torticollis. The most common drug used to treat tonsillitis is amoxicillin. But with increasing resistance, the use of beta-lactamase inhibitor i.e. augmentin or unasyn may be needed. Only 32% responds to medical treatment with 6 months prophylaxis or a prolonged course of 30-days antibiotics. Decision for surgical intervention in patients with recurrent tonsillitis should be individualized.

Suspected neoplasia-asymmetric tonsillar hypertrophy There are different methods of tonsillectomy including the use of a cold knife, hot knife, diathermy, laser and harmonic scalpel. The operation lasts for about one hour. Postop, the patients recover rapidly and can resume tonsillar diet immediately. Most important is to look out for post-op bleeding. Postoperative haemorrhage ranges from 0.5-2%. No significant immunological consequence has ever been documented. Changes in speech or velopharyngeal insufficiency are mainly temporary. In general, nearly all our patients can be discharged safely from hospital three days after the operation.
