“…Nomenclature: These bars have been named as pterygospinous and pterygoalar bars. The foramina enclosed are known as pterygospinous or Civinini foramen, earlier known as foramen interruptum / foramen innominatum [1] and the pterygoalar or Hyrtl foramen / foramen crotaphitico buccinatorius, due to the anatomist who first described it [5,6,8]. Location and morphology: The pterygospinous ligament extends from the posterior border of the lateral pterygoid plate to the spine of the sphenoid.…”

“…Location and morphology: The pterygospinous ligament extends from the posterior border of the lateral pterygoid plate to the spine of the sphenoid. Sometimes it gets partially or completely ossified and forms the pterygospinous bar [5,6,8] enclosing a foramen named as Civinini foramen. This bar always has a vertical disposition and lies medial to the foramen ovale [4,5,15].…”

It is mostly a partial plate or may be a single complete partition appearing as the continuation of lateral pterygoid plate or may be as multiple thin complete bars.…”

“…It is mostly a partial plate or may be a single complete partition appearing as the continuation of lateral pterygoid plate or may be as multiple thin complete bars. The pterygoalar ligament extends from the root of the lateral pterygoid plate to the greater wing (ala magna) of the sphenoid [4,5,16] . At times it gets ossified and forms the pterygoalar bar, which encloses a space called porus crotaphitico buccinatorius or the pterygoalar foramen.…”

“…As Civinini observed, these osseous components appeared in different forms like spines, bars or sheets [4]. These ossified structures might entrap or compress the mandibular nerve [4][5][6][7][8][9] or the vascular channels around [2]. When these enlarged bars exert a traction, pulling on the nerve itself [10], it provokes many clinical neuropathies such as paresis, paresthesia, anaesthesia and trigeminal neuralgia [11].…”

Objective: In the infratemporal region, the ossified inter, pterygoid muscle, fascia becomes the foremost bony cause of a lancinating pain (trigeminal neuralgia), due to the entrapment or compression of the mandibular nerve or its branches. Main bony offenders have to be diagnosed radiologically in day to day practice. Materials and Methods:One hundred and fifty eight dry macerated skulls of north Indian origin were studied to identify the presence of these ossified components named "the pterygospinous and pterygoalar bars and the enclosed foramina". The skulls showing these bars were subjected to different radiographic views to find out which one exhibited them clearly. Results:The infratemporal region showed additional bony bars and foramina as incomplete pterygospinous bars in 12 cases (7.69%), unilaterally in 7 cases 4.48% (3 right-sided -1.92%, 4 left-sided -2.56%) and bilaterally in 5 cases 3.20% , complete in 2 cases (1.28%); the pterygoalar bars partial in 2 skulls (1.28%) but a complete bar was not seen. Radiologically these bars were found to be best visualized in the Hirtz axial view with 10-20 0 headward tube tilt. Whether these bars in a given patient of trigeminal neuralgia are the causative factor or not, can best be demonstrated in radiograph of the skull in this view. Conclusion:Proper treatment for neuralgia can be well planned after assigning the cause and then tackling it by percutaneous trigeminal ganglion neurolysis under proper radiographic visualization.

The pterygospinous and pterygoalar foramina are illustrated photographically. To confirm the incidence of the foramina 454 skulls from various racial groups were examined. Asurvey of the literature shows that the pterygospinous foramen is present in about 10% of individuals and the pterygoalar foramen in about 1%. The possibility that either foramen may trap, compress, or cause traction of anomalous cutaneous branches of the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve, or occlude blood vessels supplying the trigeminal ganglion is discussed in relation to trigeminal neuralgia. 0 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
