Explore the complex structures of the facial skeleton, focusing on the orbit, its walls, connections, and variations. Learn about key components such as supraorbital margin, neurocranium, and fossae. Discover insights on the intricate facial bones and their contributions to the overall cranial framework.

Paired: • zygomatic • maxilla • nasal • palatine • lacrimal • inferior nasal concha Unpaired: • sphenoid • ethmoid • vomer also contribute to the neurocranium!
temporal fossa Zygomatic bone Surfaces: - orbital - lateral - temporal Processes: - frontal - maxillary - temporal Zygomatic canal: a Y-shaped channel with zygomaticoorbital, zygomaticfacial and zygomaticotemporal foramina
medial wall lateral wall inferior wall
Superior: • orbital part of the frontal • lesser wing of the sphenoid Medial: • frontal process of the maxilla • lacrimal • orbital lamina of the ethmoid • body of the sphenoid Lateral: • orbital surface of the zygomatic • orbital surface of the greater wing of the sphenoid Inferior: • orbital surface of the maxilla • orbital process of the palatine

"Blow-out" fracture of the orbit The eye and socket is hit by a fast moving object like a ball or fist. Usually the inferior and medial walls are involved. This can cause the eye to look sunken in or even cause double vision.
