Palatine tonsil THE THYMUS bod^ The third, fourth and fifth pharyngeal pouches give rise to a series of ductless glands, of which the thymus is the most important. The thymus anlage appears in 10 mm. embryos as a ventral and medial prolongation of the third pair of pouches (Figs. 162 and 163). The ducts con- necting the diverticula with the pharynx soon disappear so that the thymus anlages are set free. At first hollow tubes, they soon lose their cavities, their lower ends enlarge and migrate caudally into the thorax passing usually ven-.
