| arteria infraorbitalis | <anatomy, artery> Origin, third part of maxillary; distribution, upper canine and incisor teeth, inferior rectus and inferior oblique muscles, lower eyelid, lacrimal sac, maxillary sinus, and upper lip; anastomoses, branches of ophthalmic, facial, superior labial, transverse facial, and buccal. Synonym: arteria infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| rami alveolares superiores anteriores nervi infraorbitalis | <anatomy, nerve> The branches of the superior alveolar nerve that supply the incisors, canines, premolars, and first molar by their contributions to the superior dental plexus. Synonym: rami alveolares superiores anteriores nervi infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| rami nasales interni nervi infraorbitalis | Internal nasal branch of infraorbital nerve. See: internal nasal branches. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus alveolaris superior medius nervi infraorbitalis | Synonym: middle superior alveolar branch of infraorbital nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| margo infraorbitalis | The inferior half of the orbital rim, or the lower border of the orbital opening, formed by the maxilla medially and the zygomatic bone laterally. See: orbital rim. Synonym: margo infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| regio infraorbitalis | The region of the face below the orbit and alongside the nose on each side. Synonym: regio infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus infraorbitalis | <anatomy, nerve> The continuation of the maxillary nerve after it has entered the orbit, via the infraorbital fissure, traversing the infraorbital canal to reach the face; it supplies the mucosa of the maxillary sinus, the upper incisors, canine and premolars, the upper gums, the inferior eyelid and conjunctiva, part of the nose and the superior lip. Synonym: nervus infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus infraorbitalis | A gradually deepening groove on the orbital surface of the maxilla, which leads to the infraorbital canal. Synonym: sulcus infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sutura infraorbitalis | An inconstant suture running from the infraorbital foramen to the infraorbital groove. Synonym: sutura infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria canalis pterygoidei | Usually arises from the third part of the maxillary artery, but frequently from the greater palatine artery, within the pterygopalatine fossa. Passes posteriorly to run through the pterygoid canal with the corresponding nerve, supplying the contents and wall of the canal, the mucous membrane of the upper pharynx, the auditory tube and the tympanic cavity. Synonym: arteria canalis pterygoidei, vidian artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis | Synonym: canal. Origin: L. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis adductorius | The space in middle third of the thigh between the vastus medialis and adductor muscles, converted into a canal by the overlying sartorius muscle. It gives passage to the femoral vessels and saphenous nerve, ending at the adductor hiatus. Synonym: canalis adductorius, Hunter's canal, subsartorial canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis analis | The terminal portion of the alimentary canal; it extends from the pelvic diaphragm to the anal orifice. Synonym: canalis analis. (05 Mar 2000) |
