| canalis nervi facialis | The bony passage in the temporal bone through which the facial nerve passes; the facial canal commences at the internal auditory meatus with the horizontal part which passes at first anteriorly (medial crus of facial canal) then turns posteriorly at the geniculum of the facial canal to pass medial to the tympanic cavity (lateral crus of facial canal); finally, it turns downward (descending part of facial canal) to reach the stylomastoid foramen. Synonym: canalis nervi facialis, aqueductus fallopii, fallopian aqueduct, fallopian canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prominentia canalis facialis | The prominence on the medial wall of the tympanic cavity above the vestibular (oval) window produced by the presence of the facial canal. Synonym: prominentia canalis facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hiatus canalis facialis | The opening on the anterior aspect of the petrous part of the temporal bone which leads to the facial canal and gives passage to the greater petrosal nerve. Synonym: hiatus canalis nervi petrosi majoris, fallopian hiatus, Ferrein's foramen, hiatus canalis facialis, hiatus of canal for greater petrosal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geniculum | 1. A small genu or angular kneelike structure. 2. A knotlike structure. Origin: L. Dim. Of genu, knee (05 Mar 2000) |
| geniculum of facial canal | The bend in the facial canal linking the medial and lateral crura of the horizontal port of the canal and corresponding to the location of the geniculate ganglion of the facial nerve. Synonym: geniculum canalis facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geniculum of facial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A rectangular bend of the facial nerve in the facial canal where it turns posterior in the medial wall of the middle ear (external geniculum), complex loop of facial nerve fibres around the abducens nucleus (internal geniculum). Synonym: geniculum nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| area nervi facialis | <anatomy, nerve> The area in the fundus of the internal acoustic meatus superior to the transverse crest through which the facial nerve passes to enter the facial canal. Synonym: area nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria facialis | <anatomy, artery> Origin, external carotid; branches, ascending palatine, tonsillar and glandular branches, submental, inferior labial, superior labial, masseteric, buccal, lateral nasal branches, and angular. Synonym: arteria facialis, arteria maxillaris externa, external maxillary artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radix facialis | The nerve constituting the parasympathetic and sympathetic root of the pterygopalatine ganglion; it is formed in the region of the foramen lacerum by the union of the greater superficial petrosal and the deep petrosal nerves, and runs through the pterygoid canal to the pterygopalatine fossa. Synonym: nervus canalis pterygoidei, radix facialis, facial root, vidian nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radix nervi facialis | <anatomy, nerve> Fibres running from the facial motor nucleus upward to the facial colliculus where they curve around the abducens nucleus and then pass peripherally between the superior olive and sensory nucleus of the trigeminal, to emerge as the facial nerve from the pontomedullary groove. Synonym: radix nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami buccales nervi facialis | <anatomy, nerve> Motor branches of the facial nerve distributed to buccina or muscle and other muscles of facial expression below orbit and above chin. Synonym: rami buccales nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami glandulares arteriae facialis | <anatomy, artery> Branches of facial artery to the submandibular gland. Synonym: rami glandulares arteriae facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami parotidei venae facialis | Parotid branch of facial vein. See: parotid branches. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami temporales nervi facialis | <anatomy, nerve> <anatomy, neurology> Branches of facial nerve innervating the superior portion of the orbicularis oculi muscle and other muscles of facial expression above the eye. Synonym: rami temporales nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
