Resumo
Estudou-se a anatomia do timo em 30 filhotes de avestruzes, 13 machos e 17 fêmeas com idade variando entre 10 a 20 dias, mediante fixação de cada ave em solução aquosa de formol a 10%. As cadeias de lobos tímicos localizaram-se no terço distal da região ventral do pescoço, dispondo-se de forma linear e paralela, desde a décima primeira até a décima quinta vértebra cervical, relacionando-se com o nervo vago e veia jugular. O número de lobos variou de 1 a 3 e 1 ou 2, para os antímero direito e esquerdo respectivamente. A média das dimensões dos lobos foram 2,09 x 0,71 x 0,41 cm para o lobo cranial, 0,69 x 0,38 x 0,27 cm para o lobo médio e 0,55 x 0,33 x 0,29 cm para o lobo caudal do antímero direito. No antímero esquerdo foram registrados de 2,14 x 0,71 x 0,37 cm para o lobo cranial e 0,60 x 0,31 x 0,22 cm para o lobo caudal. Os lobos tímicos direitos e esquerdos mostraram-se nutridos, em todos os casos, por vasos oriundos, direta e exclusivamente, das artérias comuns dos nervos vagos, esofágicas ascendentes e cervicais cutâneas ascendentes direitas e esquerdas. Os lobos tímicos do antímero direito receberam, independentemente de sua origem, de um a cinco ramos e do antímero esquerdo, houve uma variação de um a quatro ramos. A morfologia e vascularização arterial do timo apresentaram comportamentos bem definidos, possuindo características comuns que identificam a espécie que foi objeto de nosso estudo.
It was studied the morphology and the biometry of the thymus in 30 young ostriches, 13 males and 17 females aged from 10 to 20 days, by setting each bird in aqueous solution of 10% formaldehyde. Chains of thymic lobes were located in the third distal part of the ventral neck, offering up linear and parallel, from the eleventh to the fifteenth cervical vertebra, relating to the vagus nerve and jugular vein. The number of lobes varied from 1 to 3 and 1 or 2, to right and left antimeres respectively. The average dimensions of the lobes were 2.09 x 0.71 x 0.41 cm to the cranial lobe, 0.69 x 0.38 x 0.27 cm to the middle lobe and the 55 x 0.33 x 0.29 cm to the caudal lobe of the right side. On left antimere were found the average dimensions of the lobes of 2.14 x 0.71 x 0.37 cm for cranial lobes and 0.60 x 0.31 x 0.22 cm to the caudal lobes. Thymic right and left lobes shown to be nourished , in all cases , for vessels coming directly and exclusively , common arteries of the vagus nerves , skin and cervical esophageal ascending upward right and left . Thymic lobes of the right side received , regardless of its source , from one to five branches and left antimere , there was a variation of one to four branches. The morphology and thymus biometrics showed well-defined behaviors, possessing common characteristic who characterized the specie that was the subject of our study.
