The A to
Z of the Bones of the Skull Introduction After the A to Z of Skeletal Muscles was released to my eill students (and later my colleagues with the help of Aspen), I received some very valuable feedback from both. From this feedback it became apparent that this format was helpful to all in the health professional field. It was also apparent that there was a need for another pocket reference book of this type on bones and aN nerves. So as with the other book, I have started with a prototype examining the bones of one of the most complex group in the body, the SKULL. nd It is hoped that this proves to be as useful as my first A to Z book, and goes on to become a more comprehensive but quick and simple reference for all bones. ma Acknowledgement I would like to thank Aspen Pharmacare Australia and particularly Mr Greg Lam CEO and Mr Robert Koster Head of Marketing and Sales for stepping in and giving me their rA support in this project when it seemed I was not going to be able to complete it, due to lack of resources and time. Students, as always, but particularly today have to sacrifice many things in their pursuit of knowledge. It is hoped that this book will help to make that pathway easier and more ©D enjoyable. As with my other ventures in this A to Z series we want to give knowledge to any who wish to use it. Dedication To MICKEY 390335, and to stopping pettiness, spite and misinformation wherever it lies. 1 © A. L. Neill

The A to
Z of the Bones of the Skull How to use this book After examining the SKULL as a WHOLE from many view eill points, identifying individual bones, cavities, impressions and surfaces and including common radiological views, with explanatory diagrams, this book lists all the bones of the skull in ALPHABETICAL order as far as possible. Images of the Skull “in situ” are also included. aN Features are named using in the most familiar terms and those agreed upon by anatomical nomenclature convention avoiding eponymous terms wherever possible but as with all anatomical studies sometimes several terms are used to name the same feature. Wherever this is common and to save confusion nd reference is made to each term. Similarly between disciplines such as radiology and osteology as well as anatomy the same view may be described several different ways, so when this is also common and to provide clarity these terms are mentioned. ma The pages facing each image contain the key/legends to the labels on that diagram. This is to help in the learning of the features and to prevent confusion in the examination of rA the bones. Numbering commences anew with each diagram. However, with some bones one view is not enough (e.g. Temporal and Sphenoid) to conceptualize all the surfaces and articulations, so these bones are then shown with the same numbering sequentially in an alphabetical way, on each related ©D diagram. Occasionally they are also shown “in situ”, in other words as they lay in the skull. This is particularly the case with the Palatine bones. These bones are hard to see as they are surrounded by other structures and deeply embedded in the head, so several views and rotations of the bone are shown and labelled to see their connections, as well as a view showing how they are placed relative to other bones. © A. L. Neill 2

The A to
Z of the Bones of the Skull Capitalization is used to demonstrate the bones involved in eill several structures including joints of all kinds (e.g. sutures). In other words the parietomastoid suture is listed as Parieto- Mastoid suture to further remind the reader of the involved bones or bony features involved in the composition of the structure. This helps to further orientate the reader to the structural components of the feature. aN It is hoped that this will prove a valuable resource for those examining individual bones as in the study of ANATOMY and its many uses such as: archeology, anthropology, chiropractic dentistry, forensics, geology, medicine, orthopaedics, osteology, nd paleontology, paleobiology, physiotherapy and surgery. It is to be a forerunner of a more complete listing of all bones from A to Z and a more extensive development of other aspects of the skull such as measurement markers, development milestones, individual and ethnic variations - ma “the A to Z of the Skull part II”. Hence any suggestions on format or inclusions will be gratefully received. rA Thank you Amanda Neill BSc MSc MBBS PhD FACBS ©D ISBN 1 74138 166 5 3 © A. L. Neill

© A. L.
Neill ©D rA ma nd aN eill 4 The A to Z of the Bones of the Skull Red spots indicate when there is an articulation or joint between the bones. Please note the hyoid does not articulate with any bones and the mandible articulates at the only synovial joint in the skull- the TMJ -temporomandibular joint. All other joints are secondary cartilagenous bone-fibrocartilage-bone.

Most Skull bones. eill Irregular bones Various shapes not easily classified Sphenoid Long bone Longer than wide 2 ends epiphysis and a central diaphysis. Growth mainly lengthwise. Most limb bones. aN Pneumatic bone/Alveolar bone Bones filled with air to lighten their weight - Maxilla, Frontal, Mandible and bones with “sinuses” Sesamoid bone Bones completely surrounded by soft tissue w/o joints Hyoid nd Short bone Roughly cubic in shape. Most wrist and ankle bones; many of the bones at the base of the skull. Sutural bone “Wormian” bone small bones which occur within the skull sutures sometimes called extra-sutural if the main part of the bone is outside of the suture. Generally they are ma unnamed although the Incus is the name given to the large extra-sutural bone when present. There are: 22 paired skull bones including the ear ossicles / not including the teeth. 5 single bones mainly on the base of the skull rA 1 mandible 1 hyoid variable sutural and extra-sutural bones (generally between 3-5) ©D © A.

Involved in olfaction, humidification. Highly vascularized and when the soft tissue surrounding this is swollen, it may cause nasal obstruction and sinuses. Please note when "picking one's nose" the finger never reaches the nasal conchae, stopping just short of this area. 77 © A. L. Neill
