In the ethmoid bone, a sickle shaped projection, the uncinate process, projects posteroinferiorly from the ethmoid labyrinth.Between the posterior edge of this process and the anterior surface of the ethmoid bulla, there is a two-dimensional space, resembling a crescent shape.
An uncinate process is a hook-shaped projection or protuberance from a bone or organ. It may refer to: Uncinate process of ethmoid bone, a process located in the nasal cavity
processus uncinatus pancreatis: TA98: A05.9.01.003: TA2: 3116: FMA: 15857: Anatomical terminology [edit on Wikidata] The uncinate process is a small part of the pancreas.
In anatomy, a process (Latin: processus) is a projection or outgrowth of tissue from a larger body. [1] For instance, in a vertebra, a process may serve for muscle attachment and leverage (as in the case of the transverse and spinous processes), or to fit (forming a synovial joint), with another vertebra (as in the case of the articular processes). [2]
(Uncinate means hooked from Latin uncinatus, from uncinus, barb, from uncus, hook.) They are found in birds (except for screamers), reptiles, and the early amphibian Ichthyostega. [1] These processes can serve to attach scapula muscles, [1] and help to strengthen the rib cage overlapping with the rib behind them.
The perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone (vertical plate) is a thin, flattened lamina, polygonal in form, which descends from the under surface of the cribriform plate, and assists in forming the septum of the nose; it is generally deflected a little to one or other side.
The frontal process of the maxilla is a strong plate, which projects upward, medialward, and backward from the maxilla, forming part of the lateral boundary of the nose. ...
