The ethmocranial angle is an anatomical term used to describe the relationship between the ethmoid bone and the cranial base. While it may not have many synonyms, it can be understood as the angle formed by the intersection of the ethmoid bone and the base of the skull. In some medical literature, it may also be referred to as the cranial base angle or simply as the ethmoid angle. Understanding the ethmocranial angle is crucial for studying the structure and function of the skull, as well as for diagnosing and treating certain medical conditions related to craniofacial development.
