Scientists may have accidentally discovered new organ inside the human head.
00:04
Scientists recently discovered tibarial glands inside the human head,
00:08
marking the first new organ discovery in about 300 years,
00:11
despite centuries of anatomical studies,
00:14
highlighting the body's capacity for surprising revelations.
00:20
A Dutch team discovered tibarial glands,
00:23
large saluvery glands in the nasal cavity throat nook,
00:26
joining the three known glands,
00:28
near ears, below jaw, and under tongue.
00:31
Though confirmation is pending,
00:33
this marks an exciting anatomical development.
00:39
Salivary glands produce one cord of saliva daily,
00:42
crucial for lubricating the mouth,
00:44
aiding speech, swallowing, taste, wound healing, and germ combat.
00:48
Doctors protect them during radiation due to their importance.
00:54
The researchers were not looking for a new organ when they discovered them,
00:58
but instead happened upon them while studying glands from those with prostate cancer.
01:02
Researchers noticed two unfamiliar, flat, two-inch-long spindly glands in the head's center from scans.
01:09
Positioned over tubes connecting ears to throat,
01:12
these shapes hint at undiscovered anatomical features.
01:15
The team dissected two cadaver's glands,
01:18
noting similarity to sublingual glands.
01:21
Connected to large ducts,
01:22
these glands likely transport fluid,
01:24
suggesting a potential role in fluid movement within the body.
01:30
Of course, many anatomists are curious as to how no one has ever noticed them before.
01:35
According to Dutch radiation oncologist Dr. Wouter Vogel,
01:38
it is primarily due to their location.
01:44
Scientists are surprised by this potential organ discovery,
01:47
affecting disease study.
01:49
Dr. Vogel links it to chronic dry mouth and cancer therapy,
01:52
while Dr. Hassankhani urges caution due to numerous existing salivary glands.
01:56
Researching tibarial glands is crucial.
02:02
Their classification as new organs is uncertain,
02:05
but could revolutionize cancer treatment,
02:07
indicating significant impacts on future medical approaches.
02:10
C drops of blood flow.
02:11
Numerous is the blood flow.
02:12
Notice the sun has yet to spread the blood flow.
02:12
The magic of the water is the blood flow.

It is really beautiful.
02:14
That's for sure it is.

02:15
