cribriform , auch: cribrous

From there it reaches the brain by passing through a porous barrier called the cribriform plate.

This valve may be double or it may be cribriform.

The ethmoid fracture can produce bone fragments that penetrate the cribriform plate.

Adults don't get infected, because their cribriform plates are sealed over, protecting their brains.

From there, the amoeba climbs along nerve fibers through the floor of the cranium via the cribriform plate and into the brain.

The cribriform fascia, which is pierced by the structures passing through the opening, closes the aperture and must be removed to expose it.

The olfactory foramina are holes in the cribriform plate which transmit the olfactory nerves.

These receptors are bipolar neurons that project to the glomerular layer of the olfactory bulb, traveling through the cribriform plate.

The deep inguinal lymph nodes are located medial to the femoral vein and under the cribriform fascia.

The olfactory bulbs lie on either side of the crista galli on top of the cribriform plate.

The flow of CSF to the nasal submucosal lymphatic channels through the cribriform plate seems to be especially important.

Tumor extends to invade the medial wall or floor of the orbit, maxillary sinus, palate, or cribriform plate.

The cribriform plate is ossified partly from the perpendicular plate and partly from the labyrinths.

This was accomplished with the surgical excision of a "plug" of olfactory epithelium from the area of the cribriform plate.

The ethmoidal notch separates the two orbital plates; it is quadrilateral, and filled, in the articulated skull, by the cribriform plate of the ethmoid.

The greater omentum is usually thin, presents a cribriform appearance, and always contains some adipose tissue, which in obese people accumulates in considerable quantity.

Nontraumatic (spontaneous) cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea from cribriform fistula associated with primary empty sella: report of two cases and literature review.

Anterior inferior cribriform area, with (5') the tractus spiralis foraminosus, and (5") the canalis centralis of the cochlea.

Its roof is formed by the fascia lata, except at the saphenous opening where it is formed by the cribriform fascia.

The lacrimal duct, nasal bone, nasal cavity, vomer, maxillary sinus, cribriform plate, and ethmoid cells are often missing on the involved side.

It consists of a thin lamella, which descends from the under surface of the cribriform plate, and ends below in a free, convoluted margin, the middle nasal concha.

Tumor invades anterior orbital contents, skin of cheek, pterygoid plates, infratemporal fossa, cribriform plate, or sphenoid or frontal sinuses.

The olfactory nerves go through the cribriform plate and terminate on the dendrites of the mitral cells located in the glomeruli of the olfactory bulb.

The cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone (horizontal lamina) is received into the ethmoidal notch of the frontal bone and roofs in the nasal cavities.
