Medical - Medical (general) / cranial anatomy
Italian term or phrase: parete mestale
From the description of a head trauma patient:

"fratture scomposte del pavimento e della parete mestale dell'orbita sinistra"

Doesn't appear in any of my dictionaries, could it be a typo?

Suggestions welcome.

Explanation:
It looks to me like an error introduced by OCR scanning: parete mediale.

Tutte le pareti ossee dell’orbita possono fratturarsi, anche se più frequentemente si rompono le pareti più sottili e quindi meno resistenti, cioè il pavimento orbitario e la parete mediale (cioè sul versante nasale).

agree  Luigi Argentino: Si trovano anche riferimenti alla parete "mesiale" che renderebbe più plausibile il refuso (scambio di una sola lettera e non due). Tuttavia il campo è prevalentemente quello odontoiatrico. Ritengo, pertanto più idonea la tua risposta
