Very low magnification light micrograph showing one of the lower parathyroid glands of a child. The lower parathyroid glands derive, like the thymus, from the third branchial pouch. Due to this origin, these glands are often located, as shown in the image, in contact or partially surrounded by the upper pole of the thymus. | |
