Asset Overview

The ectopterygoid articulates with the pterygoid and maxilla at their respective sutures. Along with the pterygoid, the long, descending pterygoid flange forms a portion of the large pterygoid buttress. The ectopterygoid forms part of the rim of the palatal fenestra. Dorsally, the pterygoideus dorsalis muscle passes over the element.
