An Entity of Type: anatomical structure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Attached to the posterior border of the hard palate is a thin, firm, fibrous lamella called the palatine aponeurosis, which supports the muscles and gives strength to the soft palate. It is thicker above and narrows on the way down where it becomes very thin and difficult to define. Laterally, it is continuous with the pharyngeal aponeurosis. It serves as the insertion for the tensor veli palatini and levator veli palatini, and the origin for the musculus uvulae, palatopharyngeus, and palatoglossus. It provides support for the soft palate.

  • L'aponévrose palatine est une fine lamelle fibreuse attachées au bord postérieur du palais osseux. Elle soutient les muscles et renforce le voile du palais. Il est plus épais au-dessus et se rétrécit en descendant où il devient très fin et difficile à définir. Latéralement, elle est en continuité avec le fascia pharyngobasilaire. Il sert de terminaison pour le muscle tenseur du voile du palais et le muscle élévateur du voile du palais, et d'origine pour le muscle uvulaire, le muscle palatopharyngien et le muscle palatoglosse.
