Temporal Bone - Abnormalities
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Temporal Bone'Either of a pair of compound bones forming the lateral (left and right) surfaces and base of the skull which contains the organs of hearing. It is a large bone formed by the fusion of parts: the squamous (the flattened anterior-superior part), the tympanic (the curved anterior-inferior part), the mastoid (the irregular posterior portion), and the petrous (the part at the base of the skull). Common names: Temporal Bone; Bone, Temporal; Bones, Temporal; Temporal Bones |

Exertional headache as unusual presentation of the syndrome of an elongated styloid process.
29 Apr 2009 
We present the case of a 34-year-old man with a 2-year history of pain related to efforts in heavy lifting, beginning in the right ear and radiating to the neck and to the vertex. He underwent multiple negative neuroimaging examinations, until a ... Read more...
