Examination of the Topography and Morphometry of Hypophysis (Glandula pituitaria) by Computed Tomography in New Zealand Rabbits

“…It is important to determine the detailed characteristics of hypophysis due to the presence of surrounding vital structures and its anatomic location. There are various studies about hypophysis via advanced imaging techniques (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19). However, in the literature, no study was found in which the topography of the gland was detected in cavum cranii.…”

“…Uzun et al (17), analyzed the surgical corridors in operations by determining the morphometric analysis of the structures associated with fossa hypophysialis for surgical approaches and determining safe distances in surgical operations related to the skull base. In the present study, it was aimed to determine the topography of the hypophyseal region in cavum cranii and to figure out the regional anatomy better.…”
