“…Singh et al (2004); observed that closure is obtained at 45-50 yrs of age for coronal suture and 45-50 yrs of age for lambdoid suture which is consistent with our finding. Masih et al (2014); also observed in their study that coronal suture closure in either sex was completed at the age of 46-50 yrs; sagittal suture completion of obliteration took place at the age of 51-55 yrs. Sunira et al (2015); made their study on a total sample of randomly selected 85 cases by applying a modified reverse panoramic radiograph on lambdoid suture for age estimation they applied Fredric rating scale and found that most of the lambdoid sutures attained closure by mean age of 49 and complete closure by mean age of 66 years which is similar to the present study and is also supported by the observation done by Parikh, (1990), Singh et al, (2014), Dikshit.…”

Background: Accurate age estimation is essential in forensic anthropology, bioarcheology, and medico legal investigations. Recent advancements in CT imaging have enabled detailed examination of cranial sutures, offering valuable insights. Aim: This study aimed to correlate the relationship between age and closure of cranial sutures and to estimate average age of closure of each suture (coronal, sagittal, and lambdoid) using CT imaging on a sample of Egyptian population. Materials & methods: Total number of 100 CT cases, 20 years and beyond were included in the study, and divided equally into five age groups with an age interval of 10 years; Group 1 (20-30 yrs), group 2 (>30-40 yrs), group 3 (>40-50 yrs), group 4 (>50-60 yrs) & group 5 (> 60 yrs). Assessment of suture closure was done according to the Frederic Rating Scale on CT imaging. The acquired data was statistically analyzed. Results:The current study revealed a positive correlation between age and cranial suture closure, also we observed that sagittal suture closes earlier and begins closure first through its second part (S2) at around 38.82±11.62 followed by coronal sutures where the second part (C2) is the first to start closure with mean age of 43.29±16.58 and then lambdoid suture. Conclusions: Cranial suture can be used as a tool for age estimation through usage of CT imaging both ectocranially and endocranially but with one decade interval error with no differences between males and females.
