Area of Science:

  • Anatomy
  • Embryology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • The sphenoid bone is a complex, centrally located skull base structure.
  • It articulates with numerous cranial and facial elements.
  • It contains vital foramina and fissures for neurovascular structures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the embryology and postnatal development of the sphenoid bone.
  • To describe the normal anatomy of the sphenoid bone, including its foramina and fissures.
  • To illustrate developmental and anatomical features using advanced imaging techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Review of embryologic development and postnatal changes.
  • Detailed anatomical description of the sphenoid bone.
  • Illustration using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging.

Main Results:

  • Comprehensive overview of sphenoid bone embryogenesis.
  • Detailed mapping of sphenoid bone foramina and fissures.
  • Visualization of normal anatomical variations and developmental progression via CT and MR.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding sphenoid bone embryology and anatomy is crucial for skull base studies.
  • CT and MR imaging are effective tools for evaluating sphenoid bone development and anatomy.
  • This review provides a foundational resource for clinicians and researchers.
