skull
The skull is the bony skeletal of the head.
It shield the brain ,the organ of special
sense and the cranial part of the
respiratory and digestive system and
providing attachments for many of the
muscles of the head and neck.
Composed of 28 bones
Skull is divided in to 2 main parts
– Calvaria (brain box)
– Fascial skeleton (rest of skull including
mandible)
Cranium
• Skull without mandible is called cranium
it is divided into
– Neurocranium or cranial vault
• Enclosing brain ,meninges, csf

– Viscerocranium or fascial skeleton


• Houses the organs of special sense
Anatomical
position of skull
Reid's base line
• Reid's base line . It is
defined as a line drawn
from the inferior margin
of the orbit to the
auricular point (center
of the orifice of the
external acoustic
meatus) and extending
backward to the center
of the occipital bone
• skull is the Frankfurt plane , where the
lower margins of the orbits and the
upper borders of the ear canal s are all
in a horizontal plane. ...also called
 eye-ear plane, Frankfort horizontal,

Frontal bone
• Half a shallow
irregular cap
forming forehead
• It has
– 3 parts
• Squamous (Main part)
• Nasal
• Orbital
• Zygomatic process
– 2 cavities
• Frontal sinus
Ossification
• It ossified in fibrous mesenchyme from 2
primary centers
• Appear in 8th wk in utero near each frontal
tuber
• Secondary center for nasal spine appear
about 10th year
• At birth it has 2 halves
• Median suture disappears at about 8th year
• May persist as Metopic suture
Parietal bone

• 2 bones form most of


cranial roof and side of
the skull
• Irregular quadrilateral
• & it has
• 2 surfaces
• 4 borders
• 4 angles
Ossification
• Each parietal bone ossified from 2
centres which appear in dense
mesenchyme near the tuberosity,one
above the other at about the 7th wk in
utero.
• Angles are the last part to ossified &
fontanelles occur at these sites
• At birth temporal lines are low down
• Reach at their final position after the
eruption of molar teeth.
Occipital bone

n&v)
• Orbital (canalis sinuosus ,ant sup alveolar n)
• Nasal
– 4 processes
• frontal
• zyomatic
• Alveolar
• palatine
Maxilla
Ossification
• From a single center in a sheet of
mesenchyme.
• Appear above the canine fossa at about
the 6th wk in utero and spread to rest of
maxilla and its processes.
• The maxillary sinus appear as a shallow
groove on the nasal aspect at about the 4th
month in utero. (though small at birth)
• After birth it enlarge with growing maxilla
• Fully developed following the eruption of
the permanent teeth.
Zygomatic bone
• 2 processes . 5 borders
• 3 surfaces . Whitnall,s tubercle

• From one center
• Appears in fibrous tissues about the
8th wk in utero
• Sphenoid
• Unpaired ,it forms
middle part of base of
skull
• Extend into Lateral
wall of the vault & into
orbit
• It has
– Body(5 surfaces)
– Rt & Lt greater
wings(3 surfaces)
– Rt &Lt lesser wings
– Rt & Lt Pterygoid
processes
sphenoid
Ossification
• Until the 7th to 8th month in utero the
sphenoidal body has a presphenoidal part, ant
to the tuberculum sellae with which the lesser
wing was continuous .
• Postsphenoidal part consisting of sella turcica
,dorsum sallae, greater wing and Pterygoid
process.
• Much of the bone preformed in cartilage.
• 6 ossification centres for presphenoidal
• 8 for postsphenoidal
Temporal bone
Temporal bone
Temporal bone
Ethmoid bone
Inferior nasal concha &VOMER
Ossification
• Ethmoidal bone ossifies in the
cartilaginous nasal capsule from 3
centres .1 for perpendicular plate,1 in
each labyrinth. later 2 appear In the
orbital plates b/e 4th and 5th month in
utero.
• Inferior nasal concha ossifies from 1
centre which appear at about the 5th
month in utero.
Palatine bone
ossification
• Palatine bone ossifies in the
mesenchyme from 1 centre in the
perpendicular plate that appear during
8th wk in utero
