Study Notes

Orbit of the Eye

  • The nasal bone does not contribute to the formation of the orbit.

Mandible

  • The mandible features an anterior projection known as the mental protuberance.

Facial Bones

  • Ethmoid, zygomatic, mandible, and palatine are considered facial bones, but the mandible is highlighted as a key reference point in identifying faces.

Nasal Conchae

  • All nasal conchae originate from the same bone, specifically, the inferior portion of the sphenoid bone forms the superior nasal conchae and the middle nasal conchae arises from the ethmoid bone.

Zygomatic Arch

  • The zygomatic arch is a structure formed by the maxilla and zygomatic bones, with the zygomatic process extending from the maxilla.

Skull Anatomy

  • The parietal bone articulates with the sphenoid, temporal, and occipital bones in the lateral view of the skull.

Temporal Bone

  • The temporal bone forms the sole articulation point with the mandible.

Alveolar Processes

  • The maxilla and mandible contain alveolar processes that hold the teeth.

Cranial Bones

  • The lacrimal bone is not classified as a part of the cranium.

Unpaired Cranial Bone

  • The frontal bone is categorized as an unpaired bone of the skull.

Sphenoid Bone

  • The sphenoid bone is a large, bat-shaped structure that spans the width of the cranial floor.

Sinus Presence

  • Nasal bones do not contain sinuses, while paranasal sinuses encircle the nasal cavity.

Sutures

  • The sagittal suture is located between the two parietal bones of the skull.

Foramen Magnum

  • The spinal cord passes through the foramen magnum in the base of the skull.

Nasal Septum

  • The vomer bone is a significant component of the nasal septum.

Bridge of the Nose

  • The nasal bones form the central portion of the bridge of the nose.

Cheekbones

  • Zygomatic bones are anatomically referred to as cheekbones.

Upper Jaw

  • The maxillary bones are responsible for forming the upper jaw.

Orbit Structure

  • The lacrimal bones are small facial structures located in the medial wall of the orbit.

Roof of the Mouth

  • The roof of the mouth is formed by the maxillary and palatine bones.

Vertebrae

  • The body, also known as the centrum, is a key part of vertebral structure.

Vertebral Processes

  • The spinous process extends in a median plane, while the transverse process projects laterally.

Articulation of Vertebrae

  • Inferior articular processes of a vertebra make contact with the vertebra below.

Vertebral Foramen Contents

  • Intervertebral discs are not located within the vertebral foramen.

Vertebral Projections

  • The transverse process serves as a lateral projection for individual vertebrae.

Kyphosis

  • A hunched back appearance in elderly women, like Greta, is termed kyphosis.

Lumbar Region

  • Lumbar vertebrae are characterized by the largest bodies due to the substantial weight they carry.

Scoliosis

  • Scoliosis is identified as an abnormal lateral curvature of the vertebral column.

Costal Groove

  • The costal groove of ribs provides a passage for blood vessels and nerves.
