Pterygoid hamulus

A small hook-shaped bony projection arising from the inferior end of the medial pterygoid plate. It is pale ivory to ivory-white, with a smooth cortical bone surface, a narrow slender base, and a tapering curved tip like a tiny hamulus or pulley hook. The projection is pointed to rounded at the end and curves downward and laterally or medially depending on viewing angle.
