| artery of pterygoid canal | 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) |

| medial plate of pterygoid process | The smaller and more medial of the two bony plates extending downward from the point of union of the body and greater wing of the sphenoid bone on either side. Ending inferiorly in the pterygoid hamulus. Synonym: lamina medialis processus pterygoidei, medial plate of pterygoid process. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: musculus pterygoideus medialis, internal pterygoid muscle, musculus pterygoideus internus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial pterygoid plate | The smaller and more medial of the two bony plates extending downward from the point of union of the body and greater wing of the sphenoid bone on either side.

| groove of pterygoid hamulus | A groove at the base of the hamular process which forms a pulley for the tendon of the tensor veli palatini muscle. Synonym: sulcus hamuli pterygoidei, sulcus of pterygoid hamulus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| communicating branch of otic ganglion with medial pterygoid nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of otic ganglion joining the nerve to the medial pterygoid muscle. Synonym: ramus communicans ganglii otici cum nervo pterygoideo mediali. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pterygoid | <anatomy> Like a bird's wing in form; as, a pterygoid bone. Of, pertaining to, or in the region of, the pterygoid bones, pterygoid processes, or the whole sphenoid bone. A pterygoid bone. <anatomy> Pterygoid bone, a process projecting downward from either side of the sphenoid bone, in man divided into two plates, an inner and an outer. The posterior nares pass through the space, called the pterygoid fossa, between the processes. Origin: Gr, a wing. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| pterygoid canal | An opening through the base of the medial pterygoid process of the sphenoid bone through which pass the artery, vein, and nerve of the pterygoid canal. Synonym: canalis pterygoideus, vidian canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pterygoid chest | A chest in which the anteroposterior diameter is shorter than the average. Synonym: alar chest, pterygoid chest. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pterygoid depression | A depression on the antero-medial side of the neck of the condylar process of the mandible, giving attachment to the lateral pterygoid muscle. Synonym: fovea pterygoidea, pterygoid depression, pterygoid pit. (05 Mar 2000) |
