The name of Niels Stensen (1638–86), Danish anatomist, used in the possessive and with of to designate structures investigated by him, as: a. Stensen's duct, the duct of the parotid gland. Cf. Stenonian a.
[1803C. Bell Anat. Human Body III. ii. ii. 463 The duct of this gland [sc. the parotid] was discovered by Needham, and afterwards by Steno: it is very often called Steno's duct. ]1867W. Sharpey et al. Quain's Elem. Anat. (ed. 7) II. 816 The parotid duct, named also Stenson's duct (d. Stenonianus), appears at the anterior border of the gland. 1977G. D. Zuidema Johns Hopkins Atlas Human Functional Anat. xiii. 56/2 Surrounding the [oral] cavity and exiting into it are the major salivary glands: the parotid (Stensen's duct), the submaxillary (Wharton's duct), and the sublingual glands.
b. Each of two (sometimes four) canals through the bony palate, running from just behind the incisor teeth to each half of the nasal cavity; also the orifices of these canals in the bony palate.
1867W. Sharpey et al. Quain's Elem. Anat. (ed. 7) I. 45 This aperture may be seen to be divided into four smaller foramina, two of which placed laterally are the incisor foramina, called also foramina of Stenson. 1871Canals of Stenson [see Jacobson]. 1893Stenson's canal [see Jacobsonian a.]. 1936L. B. Arey Developmental Anat. (ed. 3) vii. 182 Fusion between the median palatine processes and the palate is incomplete, so that in the midplane there is a gap, the incisive foramen, flanked by the incisive canals (of Stenson). These become covered with mucous membrane. 1969G. N. C. Crawford tr. Donath's Anat. Dict. 480 Stenon's (Stensen's) foramen, foramen incisivum: one of the inferior openings of the incisive canals. |
