The posterior vertical buttress is usually spared, and is more commonly involved in Lefort fractures. Specifically, one of two positions at the lateral orbital wall can be involved, either above at its superior junction with the zygomaticofrontal suture or below at its inferior junction with the zygomaticosphenoid suture at the sphenoid greater ...
The zygomaticofrontal suture (or frontozygomatic suture) is the cranial suture between the zygomatic bone and the frontal bone. The suture can be palpated just lateral to the eye. The suture can be palpated just lateral to the eye.
On its orbital surface, just within the orbital margin and about 11 mm below the zygomaticofrontal suture is a tubercle of varying size and form, but present in 95 per cent of skulls (Whitnall 43). This tubercle is not seen in the picture. The orbital process is a thick, strong plate, projecting backward and medialward from the orbital margin ...
The maxilla is a paired bone that forms a significant portion of the midface. It articulates with the frontal, zygomatic, palatine bone, and sphenoid bones. The Le Fort I segment, the portion of the maxilla mobilized during the osteotomy, receives its blood supply primarily from the ascending palatine artery (a branch of the facial artery) and the anterior branch of the ascending pharyngeal ...

The zygomaticofacial nerve (or zygomaticofacial branch of zygomatic nerve or malar branch of zygomatic nerve [citation needed]) is a cutaneous branch of the maxillary nerve (CN V 2) that arises within the orbit. [1]
The zygomaticofacial foramen is a small [citation needed] opening upon the lateral (facial) surface of the zygomatic bone near the bone's orbital border. It gives passage to the zygomaticofacial nerve, artery, and vein.
The frontal suture is a fibrous joint that divides the two halves of the frontal bone of the skull in infants and children. Typically, it completely fuses between three and nine months of age, with the two halves of the frontal bone being fused together.
