Abstract The study aimed at providing information in estimating the age of camel using rostral dentition through the phenomenon of teeth eruption and wearing, thought, only way to age an animal accurately is to know the date of birth but where these records are not available various anatomical features are used to estimate age. A total of 1100 camels of both sex were used for the purpose of the study. Records were obtained between April to July 2010 on daily visit to the Sokoto metropolitan abattoir. Investigation showed that at birth, there were no teeth, at 9 month, all the deciduate teeth have erupted. At 4 years, all the deciduate incisors and canine have worn down. At 7 years, all the permanent incisors and canine teeth have erupted. At 12 years, all the permanent incisors are in wear, while At 15 years, all the permanent incisors and canine teeth have worn down. At 20 years, all the permanent teeth are down and clearly separated from each other.TRANSCRIPT

DEVELOPMENTAL ANATOMY OF THE FEMALE BREAST
Breasts are bilateral apocrine glands whose function is principally to provide nutrition by lactation for the new born.
Embroyology
Mammary buds begin to develop during the 6th week as solid downgrowth of the epidermis into the under-lying mesenchyme
These buds are downward growths from mammary crests which are thickened strips of ectoderm extending from the axillary to the inguinal regions
Embroyology Cont’d.. Each primary bud gives rise to several
secondary mammary buds that develop into lactiferous ducts and their branches
Canalization of these buds is induced by placental sex hormones entering foetal circulation
At term, 15-20 lactiferous ducts formed
The fibrous tissue and fat develop from the surrounding mesenchyme
Embroyology Cont’d..
Mammary pits are formed during late foetal period
Nipples rise from mammary pits due to proliferation of the surrounding connective tissue of the areola after birth
The mammary gland remains underdeveloped until puberty
Female Breast at Puberty
Enlarge mainly because of development of mammary glands and the accumulation of fat
Growth of duct system occurs due to raised levels of circulating oestrogen, progesterone, prolactin, corticosteroids and growth hormone
Anatomy of the Female Breast
Body of the female breast rests on a bed that extends transversely from the lateral border of the sternum to the midaxillary line
Vertically from the 2nd-6th ribs Two thirds of the bed of the breast
are formed by the pectoris fascia overlying the pectoralis major
The other third by the fascia covering serratus anterior
Anatomy of the Female Breast Cont’d..
Small part of the breast may extend along the inferolateral edge of the pectoralis major towards the axillary fossa (axillary tail)
The mammary gland is firmly attached to the dermis of the overlying skin by the suspensory ligaments (of cooper)
Breast size and shape determined by genetic, ethnic and dietary factors
Anatomy of the Female Breast Cont’d..
Lactiferous ducts give rise to buds that form 15-20 lobules of glandular tissue, which constitute the parenchyma of the mammary gland
Each lobule drained by a lactiferous duct, which opens independently on the nipple.
Deep to the areola, each duct has a dilated portion, the lactiferous sinus, in which a small droplet of milk accumulates or remain in the nursing mother
Anatomy of the Female Breast Cont’d..
The areola contains numerous sebaceous glands, which enlarge during pregnancy and secrete an oily substance
The mammary glands are modified sweat glands; no special capsule or sheat
The rounded shape is produced by subcutaneous fat, except in pregnancy when the mammary glands enlarge and new glandular tissue forms
Secreting alveoli are arranged in grape-like clusters
Blood Supply
Arterial Supply: Medial mammary branches of
perforating branches and anterior intercostal branches of the internal thorac artery, originating from subclavian artery
Lateral thoracic and thoracoaromial arteries, branches of the axillary artery
Posterior intercostal arteries, branches of the thoracic aorta in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th intercostal spaces
Venous drainage
Mainly to the axillary vein and some to internal thoracic vein
Lymphatic Drainage
Important because of cancer metastasis From the nipple, areola and lobules of the
gland to the subareolar lymphatic plexus From the lateral breast to the axillary
lymph nodes. Some may drain directly to other axillary nodes or interpectoral, deltopectoral, subclavicular, or inferior deep cervical nodes
The medial breast quadrants drain into the parasternal lymph nodes or to the opposite breast.
Lymphatic Drainage Cont’d.. Inferior quadrants may drain to abdominal
lymph nodes (inferior phrenic lymph nodes) Skin (except the nipple and areola) drain
into the ipsilateral axillary, interior deep cervical and infraclavicular lymph nodes and also into the parasternal lymph nodes both sides
Axilary nodes Clavicular (infraclavicular and supraclavicular) lymph nodes Suclavian lymphatic trunk
Parasternal nodes bronchomediastinal lymphatic trunk
Innervation
Nerves derived from anterior and lateral cutaneous branches of the 4th-6th intercostal nerves
Abnormalities of the Breast
1. Gynaecomastia-Breast hypertrophy in males
May occur in newborn, disappears in few weeks
About two third of boys develop it in mid puberty
Pathology-drugs (e.g. DES), liver disease, supra-renal or testicular cancers, klinefelter’s syndrome.
Abnormalities of the Breast Cont’d..
2. Absence of nipple (athelia) and breast (Amastia)
May be unilateral or bilateral Failure of dev. or disappearance of
mammary crests Failure of mammary bud to form
Abnormalities of the Breast Cont’d..
3. Hypoplasia of the breast Gonadal agenesis Turner’s syndrome4. Supernumerary breasts (polymastia
and nipple (polythelia) May develop in the axilla or anywhere
along the embryonic mammary ridge (the milk line).
