Is the sella trucica is part of what?
The "sella trucica" is the top part of the Sphenoid Bone.
Sella turcica is part of what cranial bone?
embedded in sphenoid bone
The sella turcica is part of what bone?
The Sella turcica is found on the surface of the sphenoid bone, at the base of the skull. It's where we find the pituitary gland.
Which bone serves as an enclosure for the pituitary gland?
Sphenoid Bone. Along the midline within the cranial cavity, a portion of the sphenoid bone indents to form the "saddle-shaped" Sella Turcica. The pituitary gland occupies this depression. The Sphenoid bone also contains two sphenoidal sinuses.
Which gland is located in the sella turcia?
The pituitary gland is located in the sella turcica, which is a bony structure at the base of the brain. The pituitary gland is often referred to as the "master gland" because it controls the functions of other endocrine glands in the body by secreting various hormones.
By what other name is the hypophysial fossa of the sphenoid bone known?
sella turcica
What is the site of the sella turcica?
The sella turcica is located on the sphenoid bone, specifically within the body of the sphenoid bone called the "hypophysial fossa" or "pituitary fossa." It is a saddle-shaped depression where the pituitary gland sits within the skull.
The pituitary gland is housed in a saddlelike depression in the temporal bone called the sella turcica?
false, sphenoid bone
What bony depression of the cranial floor does the pituitary sit?
The pituitary gland sits in the hypophyseal fossa, which is a bony depression on the cranial floor at the base of the brain. It is located in the sphenoid bone, specifically in the sella turcica region.
The pituitary gland rests on what structure of which bone?
The pituitary gland rests on a bony structure called the sella turcica, which is located in a cavity at the base of the skull known as the sphenoid bone.
Which bone is the central part of the floor of the cranium and the location of the pituitary gland?
The sphenoid bone is the central part of the floor of the cranium and houses the pituitary gland in a depression called the sella turcica.
What bones would most likely be involved in surgery to remove a tumor on the pituitary gland?
The sphenoid bone would most likely be involved in surgery to remove a tumor on the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland sits in a bony structure called the sella turcica, which is part of the sphenoid bone at the base of the skull.
