MAMMALIAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Mouse Adult Gross Anatomy Ontology and Mammalian Phenotype Ontology are downloaded weekly from the Mouse Genome Informatics databases at Jackson Laboratories (ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/index.html). For more information about these ontologies, see the MGI Publications Page at http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/other/publications.shtml.

Definition:any structural anomaly of the circular aperture (foramen) located in the middle cranial fossa, inferomedial to the superior orbital fissure at the base of greater wing of sphenoid; its medial border is formed by the lateral wall of the sphenoid sinus; it runs downwards and laterally in an oblique path and joins the middle cranial fossa with the pterygopalatine fossa; it transmits the maxillary branch of trigeminal nerve, artery of foramen rotundum, and emissary veins
