[The diffusion route of Indian Ink injected into the infraorbital nerve trunk at the infraorbital foramen of the rabbit].

The purpose of this experimental study was to investigate the disseminating routes of viruses, bacteria, tumor cells and various substances along the trigeminal nerve sheaths. Thirty-four rabbits weighing approximately 3 kg were used for this study. After an intraperitoneal injection of sodium pentobarbital, the left infraorbital foramen was exposed surgically. Then, various amounts of Indian i...

Morphometric Analysis of the Infraorbital Foramen: The Clinical Relevance

The present study was conducted to ascertain the shape, size, presence of accessory foramina, direction, and the precise position of the infraorbital foramen (IOF) in relation to the inferior orbital margin (IOM), anterior nasal spine (ANS), nasion (Na), maxillary teeth, and supraorbital foramen/notch (SOF/N) in adult skulls in a Sri Lankan population. Fifty-four skulls (42 males and 12 females...

Supraorbital Notch/Foramen, Infraorbital Foramen and Mental Foramen in Thais: anthropometric measurements and surgical relevance.

OBJECTIVE To determine the morphology and the locations of the SupraOrbital Notch/Foramen (SON/F), InfraOrbital Foramen (IOF), and Mental Foramen (MF) relative to frequently encountered surgical landmarks. MATERIAL AND METHOD One hundred and six Thai adult skulls were investigated. RESULTS Mean horizontal widths of SON, SOF, IOF and MF were 4.31 +/- 1.61 mm, 2.81 +/- 0.62 mm, 3.35 +/- 0.62 ...

Morphometric Study Of Infraorbital Foramen In Dry Human Skulls

Background & Objectives:To study the most precise location, shape and direction of infraorbital foramen in dry human skulls, in relation to Infraorbital Margin, Piriform Aperture(PA) and Upper Alveolar Margin(AM). Method: A total of one hundred dry human skulls of unknown gender were measured using digital calliper with Infraorbital Margin, Piriform Margin and Alveolar Margin as reference point...

Evidence for dietary niche separation based on infraorbital foramen size variation among subfossil lemurs.

The size of the infraorbital foramen (IOF) has been used in drawing both phylogenetic and ecological inferences regarding fossil taxa. Within the order Primates, frugivores have relatively larger IOFs than folivores or insectivores. This study uses relative IOF size in lemurs to test prior trophic inferences for subfossil lemurs and to explore the pattern of variation within and across lemur fa...
