| crest of petrous part of temporal bone | The margin that separates the anterior and posterior surfaces of the petrous part of the temporal bone and the lateral part of the middle cranial fossa from the posterior cranial fossa. Synonym: margo superior partis petrosae ossis temporalis, crest of petrous part of temporal bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| posterior border of petrous part of temporal bone | The margin of the petrous part of the temporal bone that extends from the apex to the jugular notch; it articulates with the basal and jugular portions of the occipital bone. Synonym: margo posterior partis petrosae ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior surface of petrous part of temporal bone | The surface of the petrous part of the temporal bone that contributes to the posterior cranial fossa. Synonym: facies posterior partis petrosae ossis temporalis. (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) |
| squamous part of temporal bone | 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) |
| styloid process of temporal bone | A slender pointed projection running downward and slightly forward from the base of the inferior surface of the petrous portion of the temporal bone where it joins the tympanic portion; it gives attachment to the styloglossus, stylohyoid, and stylopharyngeus muscles and the stylohyoid and stylomandibular ligaments. Synonym: processus styloideus ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior surface of petrous part of temporal bone | Inferior surface of petrous part of the temporal bone; the portion of the petrous part of the temporal bone that contributes to the external base of the skull. Synonym: facies inferior partis petrosae ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| occipital border of temporal bone | That part of the temporal bone that articulates with the occipital squama. Synonym: margo occipitalis ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| temporal bone | <anatomy> A large irregular bone situated in the base and side of the skull, consisting of three parts, squamous, tympanic and petrous. The bones are distinct at birth; the petrous part contains the vestibulocochlear organ; the bone articulates with the sphenoid, parietal, occipital, and zygomatic bones, and by a synovial joint with the mandible. Synonym: os temporale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tympanic part of temporal bone | 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) |
| tympanic plate of temporal bone | 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) |
| jugular notch of temporal bone | The notch in the temporal bone which forms one boundary of the jugular foramen. Synonym: incisura jugularis ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| zygomatic process of temporal bone | The anterior process of the temporal bone that articulates with the temporal process of the zygomatic bone to form the zygomatic arch. Synonym: processus zygomaticus ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior temporal arteriole of retina | The branch of the central artery of the retina that passes laterally above the macula to supply the upper lateral or temporal part of the retina. Synonym: arteriola temporalis retinae superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior temporal convolution | A longitudinal gyrus on the lateral surface of the temporal lobe between the lateral (sylvian) fissure and the superior temporal sulcus. Synonym: gyrus temporalis superior, first temporal convolution, superior temporal convolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
