| sphenoidal angle | Angle formed by the intersection at the top of the sella turcica (dorsum sellae), of lines coming from the nasal point and from the tip of the rostrum of the sphenoid. Synonym: sphenoidal angle of parietal bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenoidal angle of parietal bone | The anterior inferior angle of the parietal bone. Synonym: angulus sphenoidalis ossis parietalis, sphenoid angle, sphenoidal angle, Welcker's angle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenoidal border of temporal bone | The part of the border of the squamous part of the temporal bone that articulates with the greater wing of the sphenoid. Synonym: margo sphenoidalis ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenoidal conchae | Paired ossicles of pyramidal shape, the spines of which are in contact with the medial pterygoid lamina, the bases forming the roof of the nasal cavity. Synonym: conchae sphenoidales, Bertin's bones, Bertin's ossicles, sphenoidal turbinated bones. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphenoidal fissure | A cleft between the greater and the lesser wings of the sphenoid establishing a channel of communication between the middle cranial fossa and the orbit, through which pass the oculomotor and trochlear nerves, the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve, the abducens nerve, and the ophthalmic veins. Synonym: fissura orbitalis superior, foramen lacerum anterius, sphenoidal fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
