Clinical Implications in Orbital and Pterional Flap Surgeries as Well as Radioimaging Studies to Determine Topographical Prevalence and Characterization of Meningo-Orbital Foramen in Orbits of the Indian Population
SUMMARY: The pear-shaped bony orbit connects with intracranial cavity via foramina’s and fissures. The Meningo-orbital Foramen (MOF) is usually present in greater wing of sphenoid close to lateral edge of Superior orbital fissure. It provides a route for an anastomosis between the orbital...

SUMMARY: The pear-shaped bony orbit connects with intracranial cavity via foramina’s and fissures. The Meningo-orbital Foramen (MOF) is usually present in greater wing of sphenoid close to lateral edge of Superior orbital fissure. It provides a route for an anastomosis between the orbital branch of the middle meningeal artery (MMA) and recurrent meningeal branch of Ophthalmic Artery (OA) and hence, risk of damage during surgeries can occur. To verify occurrence and location, with morphology of MOF in dry orbits and the impending clinical hazards in surgeries pertaining to the orbit, document and analysis it to determine a standardized guideline. The presence for MOF was studied in 446 dry orbits with its location from the supra orbital margin (SOM), front zygomatic suture (FZS), the lateral tubercle of Whitnall (WT)and the lateral end of superior orbital fissure (SOF) along with its patency, laterality and number of foramina’s present.
