“…Therefore, for proper anesthesia, a clinical reference point is required. Previous studies indicated that MF was positioned below the OP in the range of 80.4% to 19.87% in African, Thai, Zimbabwean, Brazilian, and East Indian populations as described in Table 3 ( 5 , 7 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ). Different methodologies or ethnicity lead to this wide range of results.…”

“…The direct method using skulls or radiographic method was used to determine the relative location of MF with the OP ( 5 , 7 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ). Although the skull provides direct observation, when the investigation is based on an “imaginary line” without systematic methodology, this approach makes such valuable data as direct observation subjective and unrepeatable.…”

Purpose: The study aims to evaluate the location of mandibular foramen (MF) with respect to the occlusal plane (OP) and its location on the ramus using Anatolian dry mandibles. Materials and methods: A total of 115 dry mandibles with mandibular molars were analyzed. The distance between the MF and the OP was examined with a flat metal plate. Group A was above the OP; group L was at level, and group B was below the OP. The distances between the MF and anterior border (A-MF), sigmoid notch (U-MF), posterior border (P-MF), and lower border (L-MF) were measured. The symmetry between the two sides was examined. Pearson chi-square and Student's t-test were performed for statistical analysis. Results: According to the analysis, 50.23% of MF was located below the OP (p<0.05). The mean distances of Groups A and B were 3.45 and 4.78 mm, respectively. There was no difference between the left and right in groups (p>0.05). The distance A-MF was 14.71 mm. There was no statistical difference between the distances A-MF and P-MF or U-MF and L-MF. Conclusion: Half of the MF (50.23%) was located below the occlusal plane with a mean distance of 4.78 mm. It may be helpful to place the needle 3-4 mm above the OP and 1.5-2 mm back of the anterior border to obtain a successful inferior alveolar nerve block. The MF was located at the center of the medial surface of the ramus.

“…The morphometric measurements using dried skulls have unique significance over other methods such as radiological or intraoperative procedures as the former gives a whole integrated morphology of the foramen/notches 23 . The importance of morphometric study of the SOF/SON and IOF gains a special attention and popularity in invasive surgical approaches which are having limited visibility 24,25 .…”

Introduction: Supraorbital neuralgia is manifested with pain and tenderness at the distribution of the supraorbital nerve (SN). Explicit knowledge of the location of SN is vital for clinicians performing regional nerve blocks to relieve the pain. In the present study, detailed measurements of the supraorbital foramen (SOF) and supraorbital notch (SON) of South Indian skulls are presented, and the data are compared with those from other populations. Methodology: One hundred SON/SOF were assessed morphometrically from 50 dried adult human skull. Relevant morphometric measurements were performed using Vernier caliper. The parameters used were horizontal and vertical diameters of SON/SOF, distance between SON/SOF from the supraorbital rim; SOF to the nasal skeletal midline; SOF to the temporal crest of the frontal bone, and SOF to the superior wall of the IOF. Data was analyzed using SPSSv16.0. Results: SON was more frequently found than SOF. The mean distance of SON/SOF to the nasal midline was 24.77 mm on right side and 23.36 mm on left side. The mean distance of SON/SOF to the temporal crest of frontal bone was 30.22 mm on both sides. Mean distance between SON/SOF to infraorbital foramen was 39.71 mm on right side and 40.41 mm on left side. Mean height of SOF was 1.38 mm on the right side and 1.31 mm on the left side. Mean transverse diameter of SON was 3.93 mm. Conclusion: Differences exist in the dimensions and position of SOF/SON among different races and people of other regions. Anatomical knowledge of SON/ SOF is essential in facilitating craniofacial surgical procedures and in the treatment of neuralgia.

ÖzÇalışmamızın amacı, pediatrik populasyonda üç boyutlu bilgisayarlı tomografi kullanarak foraman mandibulae'nın yerini yaş, cinsiyet ve lokasyona (sağ/sol) bağlı olarak değerlendirmektir. Bu çalışmaya, herhangi bir nedenle kraniyal bilgisayarlı tomografisi çekilen 102 çocuk birey dahil edildi. Elde edilen verilerin cinsiyet ve lokasyon karşılaştırması istatistiksel olarak değerlendirildi ve parametrelerin yaşa bağlı korelasyonuna bakıldı. Çalışmamızda foramen mandibulae ile incisura mandibula arasındaki uzaklık ortalama 13.4±2.2 mm olarak, mandibulanın alt kenarı ile incisura mandibula arasındaki uzaklık 34.8±4.4 mm, foramen mandibulae ile ramus'un arka kenarına olan transvers mesafe 9.1±1.8 mm, mandibulanın anteroposterior çapı 24±2.4 mm bulundu. Cinsiyetler arasında ve lokasyon karşılaştırmalarında anlamlı bir fark yoktu. Yaş ile ölçümler arasında ise pozitif yönde Sağlık Akademisi Kastamonu, 2019, 4(3): [225][226][227][228][229][230][231][232][233][234][235][236][237][238][239][240][241][242] Sayfa | 226 korelasyon bulundu. Çalışmamızda elde edilen bilgileri literatür bilgisi ile karşılaştırdığımızda birçok bulgunun birbirine benzer olduğunu ancak bazı ölçümlerde farklılıklar olduğu gözlemlenmektedir. Bu farklılıklar, diğer çalışmaların kuru kemiklerde ve panoramik radyografilerde yapılmış olması, farklı yaş gruplarında çalışılması, ölçüm yöntemlerinin farklı olmasından ve canlı üzerinde bilgisayarlı tomografi ile yapılan çalışmaların nispeten az olmasından kaynaklanmaktadır. Foramen mandibulae'da yaşla ilgili değişiklikler olmakta ancak bu farklılıkları doğrulamak için daha çok anatomik ve klinik araştırmalara ihtiyaç vardır. Pediatrik populasyonda foramen mandibulae lokalizasyonun tam olarak bilinmesi yapılacak olan mandibular anestezilerde anestezik komplikasyonların azaltılması açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir.

AbstractThe aim of our study was to evaluate the location of the mandibular foramen by age, sex and location (right / left) using three-dimensional computed tomography in the pediatric population. 102 children who underwent cranial computed tomography for any reason were included in this study. The sex and location comparisons of the obtained data were statistically evaluated and the age-related correlation of the parameters was evaluated. We found that the distance between the mandibular foramen and the incisura mandibulae was 13.4 ± 2.2 mm, the distance between lower margin of the mandible and incisura mandibulae was 34.8±4.4 mm, the distance between mandibular foramen and posterior magin of the ramus was 9.1±1.8 mm and the anteroposterior diameter of the mandible was 24±2.4 mm in our study. There was no significant difference between genders and location comparisons. There was a positive correlation between age and measurements. When we compare the information obtained in our study with the literature, it is observed that many findings are similar, but there are differences in some measurements. These differen...
