Nasal surface. The maxillary hiatus (also known as maxillary sinus ostium, maxillary ostium, or opening from the maxillary sinus) [citation needed] is the opening of a maxillary sinus into the middle nasal meatus of the nasal cavity. It is situated superoposteriorly upon the lateral nasal wall, opening into the nasal cavity at the posterior ...
Left maxilla, medial view. Maxillary sinus entry shown in red. The pyramid-shaped maxillary sinus (or antrum of Highmore) is the largest of the paranasal sinuses, located in the maxilla. It drains into the middle meatus of the nose [1][2] through the semilunar hiatus. It is located to the side of the nasal cavity, and below the orbit.
The semilunar hiatus (eg, hiatus semilunaris) is a crescent-shaped [citation needed] /semicircular/ [1] curved [2] slit [2] /groove [1] upon the lateral wall of the nasal cavity [3] at the middle nasal meatus just inferior to the ethmoidal bulla. [2] It is the location of the openings for the frontal sinus, maxillary sinus, and anterior ...
In anatomy, a hiatus is a natural fissure in a structure. Examples include: Adductor hiatus. Aortic hiatus. Esophageal hiatus, the opening in the diaphragm through which the oesophagus passes from the thorax into the abdomen. Greater petrosal nerve hiatus. Maxillary hiatus.
Occlusion, in a dental context, means simply the contact between teeth. More technically, it is the relationship between the maxillary (upper) and mandibular (lower) teeth when they approach each other, as occurs during chewing or at rest. Static occlusion refers to contact between teeth when the jaw is closed and stationary, while dynamic ...
Anatomical terms of bone. [edit on Wikidata] In human anatomy, the infraorbital foramen is one of two small holes in the skull's upper jawbone (maxillary bone), located below the eye socket and to the left and right of the nose. Both holes are used for blood vessels and nerves. In anatomical terms, it is located below the infraorbital margin of ...
Schematic diagram of different types of hiatus hernia. Green is the esophagus, red is the stomach, purple is the diaphragm, blue is the HIS-angle. A is the normal anatomy, B is a pre-stage, C is a sliding hiatal hernia, and D is a paraesophageal (rolling) type. Four types of esophageal hiatal hernia are identified: [10]
Strength training. The Valsalva maneuver is commonly believed to be the optimal breathing pattern for producing maximal force. It is frequently used in powerlifting to stabilize the trunk during exercises such as the squat, deadlift, and bench press, and in both lifts of Olympic weightlifting. [10]
