| pars petrosa ossis temporalis | The part of the temporal bone that contains the structures of the inner ear and the second part of the internal carotid artery; in antenatal life it appears as a separate ossification centre. Synonym: pars petrosa ossis temporalis, periotic bone, petrosal bone, petrous pyramid. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| pars squamosa ossis temporalis | The broad, flat, thin (scale-like) anterior and superior portion of the temporal bone forming part of the lateral wall of the cranial vault. Synonym: pars squamosa ossis temporalis, squama temporalis, temporal squama. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pars tympanica ossis temporalis | The bony plate forming the greater part of the anterior wall of the bony part of the external acoustic meatus and the tympanic cavity and the posterior wall of the mandibular fossa. Synonym: pars tympanica ossis temporalis, tympanic part of temporal bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena ventriculi lateralis lateralis | A vein draining deep portions of the temporal and parietal lobes; it runs in the lateral wall of the lateral ventricle to terminate in the superior thalamostriate vein. Synonym: vena ventriculi lateralis lateralis, lateral atrial vein, lateral vein of lateral ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arcus pedis longitudinalis pars lateralis | Formed by calcaneus, cuboid and two lateral metatarsals; the combined arch is supported normally by ligaments, intrinsic muscles, and the tendons of extrinsic muscles of the foot. Synonym: arcus pedis longitudinalis pars lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pars centralis ventriculi lateralis | The body of the lateral ventricle of the brain, extending from the interventricular foramen (of Monro) to the collateral trigone (i.e., junction of posterior and inferior horns). Synonym: cella media. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pars lateralis arcus pedis longitudinalis | lateral part of longitudinal arch of foot |
| pars lateralis fornicis vaginae | pars lateralis fornicis vaginae |
| pars lateralis musculorum intertransversariorum posteriorum cervicis | pars lateralis musculorum intertransversariorum posteriorum cervicis |
| pars lateralis rami lobi medii venae pulmonalis dexter superior | lateral part of middle lobar branch of right superior pulmonary vein |
| ala major ossis sphenoidalis | Strong squamous processes extending in a broad superolateral curve from the body of the sphenoid bone. The greater wing presents these suraces (facies): 1) cerebral surface: forms anterior third of the floor of the lateral portions of the middle cranial fossa; 2) temporal surface: forms the deepest portion of the temporal fossa; 3) infratemporal surface, forms the "roof" of the infratemporal fossa; 4) orbital surface: forms posterolateral wall of orbit. The greater wing forms the inferior border of the supraorbital fissure, and is perforated at its root by foramina rotundum ovale, and spinosum and the pterygoid canal. Synonym: ala major ossis sphenoidalis, ala temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ala minor ossis sphenoidalis | One of a bilateral pair of triangular, pointed plates extending laterally from the anterolateral body of the sphenoid bone. Forming the posteriormost portion of the floor of the anterior cranial fossa, their sharp posterior edge forms the sphenoidal ridge separating anterior and middle cranial fossae. The medial end of the lesser wing attaches to the body by means of two pedicles, thus forming the optic canal. The wing itself forms the superior margin of the supraorbital fissure. Synonym: ala minor ossis sphenoidalis, ala orbitalis, Ingrassia's apophysis, Ingrassia's wing. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ala ossis ilii | The upper flaring portion of the ilium. Synonym: ala ossis ilii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angulus frontalis ossis parietalis | The anterior superior angle of the parietal bone. Synonym: angulus frontalis ossis parietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angulus mastoideus ossis parietalis | The posteroinferior point of the parietal bone. Synonym: angulus mastoideus ossis parietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
