  2. Temporal bone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_bone

    A glomus jugulare tumor is a tumor of the part of the temporal bone in the skull that involves the middle and inner ear structures. This tumor can affect the ear, upper neck, base of the skull, and the surrounding blood vessels and nerves. A glomus jugulare tumor grows in the temporal bone of the skull, in an area called the jugular foramen.

  3. Zygomatic arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygomatic_arch

    In anatomy, the zygomatic arch, or cheek bone, is a part of the skull formed by the zygomatic process of the temporal bone (a bone extending forward from the side of the skull, over the opening of the ear) and the temporal process of the zygomatic bone (the side of the cheekbone), the two being united by an oblique suture (the zygomaticotemporal suture); [1] the tendon of the temporal muscle ...

  4. Tonotopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonotopy

    Tonotopic organization in the cochlea forms throughout pre- and post-natal development through a series of changes that occur in response to auditory stimuli. [7] Research suggests that the pre-natal establishment of tonotopic organization is partially guided by synaptic reorganization; however, more recent studies have shown that the early changes and refinements occur at both the circuit and ...

  5. Posterior cranial fossa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cranial_fossa

    Anteriorly, the posterior cranial fossa is bounded by the dorsum sellae, posterior aspect of the body of sphenoid bone, and the basilar part of occipital bone/clivus. [2] Laterally, it is bounded by the petrous parts and mastoid parts of the temporal bones, and the lateral parts of occipital bone. [2]

  6. Jugular fossa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jugular_fossa

    The jugular fossa is located in the temporal bone, posterior to the carotid canal and the cochlear aqueduct.. In the bony ridge dividing the carotid canal from the jugular fossa is the small inferior tympanic canaliculus for the passage of the tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve.

  7. Occipitomastoid suture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occipitomastoid_suture

    The occipitomastoid suture, or occipitotemporal suture, is the cranial suture between the occipital bone and the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. It is continuous with the lambdoidal suture . See also

  8. Cranial fossa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cranial_fossa

    Middle cranial fossa (fossa cranii media), separated from the posterior fossa by the clivus and the petrous crest housing the temporal lobe [3] Posterior cranial fossa ( fossa cranii posterior ), between the foramen magnum and tentorium cerebelli, containing the brainstem and cerebellum [ 4 ]

  9. Zygomaticotemporal suture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zygomaticotemporal_suture

    The zygomaticotemporal suture (or temporozygomatic suture) is the cranial suture between the zygomatic bone and the temporal bone. [1] This is part of the zygomatic arch. [1] Movement at the suture decreases with development during aging. [1] It has a complex internal structure. [1]
