Definition[Bearbeiten]
The supraorbital foramen is a small bony canal in the frontal bone (os frontale), just above the orbital rim.
Anatomy[Bearbeiten]
The following structures pass through the supraorbital foramen:
- Supraorbital nerve
- Supraorbital artery
- Supraorbital vein
Sometimes there is no bony canal separated from the orbital opening, but only an incisura, which is then called the supraorbital incisura.
