Zygomatico-orbital foramina

Template:Infobox Bone Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

On the orbital process of the zygomatic bone are seen the orifices of two canals, the zygomatico-orbital foramina.

One of these canals opens into the temporal fossa, the other on the malar surface of the bone.

The former transmits the zygomaticotemporal, the latter the zygomaticofacial nerve.
