Paired Bones Flashcards
Paired bones
parietal temporal nasal zygomatic maxilla palatine lacrimal inferior nasal conchae
Paired bones motion in cranial flexion
rotate externally
paired bones motion in cranial extension
rotate internally
parietal bone articulations
5 bones occiput frontal sphenoid temporal opposite parietal
Bregma
old anterior fontanelle
edge of frontal and parietals
lambda
old posterior fontanelle
edge of occipital and parietals
Pterion
union of 4 bones parietal temporal frontal sphenoid
asterion
union of 3 bones occipital temporal parietal old mastoid fontanelle
Parietal landmarks outer
upper temporal ridge - attachment of the temporal fascia
lower temporal ridge - origin of the temporalis muscle
temporalis fossae - filled by the temporal muscle
Parietal landmarks inner
saggittal sulcus
groove of MMA
groove for transverse sinus
Parietal axis of motion
two AP axes
Pariental flexion
external rotation
sagittal articulation moves inferiorly
temporal articulation moves laterally
cranium widens laterally
pariental extention
internal rotation
sagittal articulation moves superiorly
temporal articulation moves medially
cranium narrows laterally
Parietal Bone SD
Head Pain - tension headaches
temporal headaches
head, face, and tooth pain
MMA
Sagittal Synostosis
most common form of synostosis
premature fusion of the sagittal suture
increased A and P growth
