Q

pterion

A

the site of union of the frontal, parietal, sphenoid and temporal bones - a blow to the head or a skull fracture in this region is dangerous because the bone at this site is thing and the middle meningeal artery, supplying the dural covering of the brain, lies just deep to this area.
