Osseous Bridges of the Sphenoid Bone: Frequency, Bilateral and Sex Distribution [PDF]
Sellar (caroticoclinoid and interclinoid), pterygospinous and pterygoalar bridges are osseous bars of the sphenoid bone, which enclose additional foramina in the skull base and could cause entrapment of nerves, occlusion of vessels and obstruction of ...

The chondrocranial key: Fetal and perinatal morphogenesis of the sphenoid bone in primates [PDF]
The sphenoid bone articulates with multiple basicranial, facial, and calvarial bones, and in humans its synchondroses are known to contribute to elongation of the skull base and possibly to cranial base angulation.
