postorbital bone — Definition
Postorbital kemik / postorbital bone
Postorbital bone is a bone structure that forms the backside of the eye pit (orbita) and is located on the side of the head. It often creates part of the orbita wall by jointing frontal, sphenoid and temporal bones. This bone helps protect the eyeball and provides chewing muscles (especially temporalis muscle). Clinically, postorbital bone fractures can lead to trauma outcome orbital pressure changes and vision disorders.
