From WiKi :
temporal bone either of the two irregular bones forming part of the
lateral surfaces and base of the skull, and containing the organs of
hearing. It is divided anatomically into four parts: the mastoid, petrous,
squamous, and tympanic parts
- at frontal view you dont see any part of parietal bone but if you look
at the back of the skull you will see the two parietal bone .
*Cranial vault :
1- sagital sutures : articulates the two parietal bones.
2- coronal sutures :articulates the frontal bone with the two parietal
bones.
3- lambdiod sutures :articulates the two parietal bones with the
occipital bone.
Parietal bones :
form the sides and the roof of the cranium and as we said that they
articulate with each other in the mid line at the sagittal suture and
they articulate with the occipital bone behind, at the lambdoid
suture.
* lambda: is an intersection of sagittal and lambdoid sutures.
From Wikipedia
encyclopedia
The orbits are conical or four-sided pyramidal cavities, which open into
the midline of the face and point back into the head. Each consists of a
base, an apex and four walls. They are intended to protect the eye
from mechanical injury.[4]
The base, which opens in the face, has four borders. The following
bones take part in their formation:
1. Superior margin: frontal bone
2. Inferior margin: maxilla and zygomatic
3. Medial margin: frontal, lacrimal and maxilla
4. Lateral margin: zygomatic and frontal
The apex lies near the medial end of superior orbital fissure and
contains the optic canal which communicates with middle cranial
fossa.
The roof (superior wall) is formed by the orbital plate frontal bone and
the lesser wing of sphenoid. The orbital surface presents medially by
trochlear fovea and laterally by lacrimal fossa
The floor (inferior wall) is formed by the orbital surface of maxilla, the
orbital surface of zygomatic bone and the orbital process of palatine
bone. Medially near the orbital margin is located the groove
for nasolacrimal duct. Near the middle of the floor, located infraorbital
groove, which leads to the infraorbital foramen. The floor is separated
from the lateral wall by inferior orbital fissure, which connects the orbit
topterygopalatine and infratemporal fossa.
The medial wall is formed by the frontal process of maxilla, lacrimal
bone, orbital plate of ethmoid and a small part of the body of the
sphenoid.
So this part will make the roof of the orbit and there for we will call it
orbital plate of frontal bone ..
Also as the frontal bone comes down from ( sorry I can`t hear ) it
becomes thick and there is a cavity .
That will open to the nose and this is one of paranasal sinuses
Paranasal sinuses are a group of four paired air-filled
spaces that surround the nasal cavity (maxillary sinuses),
above and between the eyes (ethmoid sinuses and frontal
sinuses), and behind the ethmoids (sphenoid sinuses)
And now lets see the mind map of frontal bone
NOW let`s see the greater wing from below ( basal view)
(note : we can`t see the lesser wing from below )
There is a spine that is called spine of sphenoid .. there is a ligament
from this spine to the mandible called sphenomandibular ligament
( I can`t hear)
We must also see the sphenoid from sagittal view
AND from the sagittal view we can see that :
* The body of the sphenoid is not solid it has sinuses that are called
sphenoid air sinuses ..
Sphenoid air sinuses (They are lined with mucous membrane
and communicate with the nasal cavity , ther serve as voise
resonater) ( from the book )
NOW let`s move to the legs of the sphenoid bone ( we are still in the
sagittal view )
* The two legs are called pteregoid process
- They give attachment to two heads of medial pteregoid muscle
- The legs are 2 plates lateral one and medial one
We have :
NOW let`s go to the mind map and this will be the final part of our
lecture
Forgive us if u find any mistake and good luck in you new semester
