Document Summary

Embedded in lesser wing of sphenoid is the optic canal. Zygomatic bone orbital surface forms the lateral border. Maxilla orbital border and orbital surface. Ethmoid lateral wall forms the medial border. Frontal orbital part of frontal bone, roof. Lateral border orbital surface of zygomatic bone. Superior border/roof orbital part of frontal bone. Temporal process where it attaches to temporal bone + contributes to zygomatic arch. Frontal process where it attaches to the frontal bone. Zygomatic arch = temporal process of zygomatic bone + zygomatic process of the temporal bone. Articulate with: frontal bone, frontal process of maxilla. Nasion = intersection of nasal bones and frontal bone. Make up majority of nose (including some of the nasal septum) Can be dislocated and fractured don"t heal particularly well. Lateral wall (superior and middle conchae: bony orbit. Medial wall: has air cells (paranasal sinuses) Bony nasal septum: perpendicular plate of the ethmoid.
