The cases having any cranial deformity or structural disorder which could be affect the Foramen Magnum's measurements were not included.Results: It was found significant positive correlations (r= 0.63; p< 0.05) between the transverse diameter and anteroposterior diameter of the Foramen Magnum.

Abstract

Purpose: Since great vital important neuroanatomical structures passing through the foramen magnum, morphometric evaluations are so important especially to establish the most proper operational techniques. The purpose of this study was to clarify and establish exact anatomical definition of interested area by documented morphometric analysis which was evaluated by computed tomography (CT).Material and Methods: A fifty-four (29 female, 25 male) cranial CT scans obtained from the archives of Department of Radiology were evaluated. The age group who completed of the skull bony maturation was included. The cases having any cranial deformity or structural disorder which could be affect the Foramen Magnum's measurements were not included.Results: It was found significant positive correlations (r= 0.63; p< 0.05) between the transverse diameter and anteroposterior diameter of the Foramen Magnum. There was a significant difference between the anteroposterior diameter of male and female cases (p

Özet

Amaç: Hayati önem taşıyan nöroanatomik yapılar Foramen Magnum'dan geçtiğinden, özellikle morfometrik değerlendirmeler en uygun operasyon tekniğinin seçiminde çok önemlidir. Kranial bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntüleri üzerinde yapılan ölçümler ile Foramen Magnum anatomisine açıklık getirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamızda radyoloji bölümü arşivinden elde edilen, 54 vakaya ait (29 kadın, 25 erkek) kranial bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntüleri değerlendirildi. Vakalar, kafatası kemikleşme matürasyonunu tamamlamış yaş gruplarını içerdi. Foramen magnum ölçümlerini etkileyebilecek kranial deformitesi veya kemik yapısında bozukluk olanlar değerlendirmeye alınmadı.Bulgular: Foramen Magnum ölçümlerinde, transvers çap ile antero-posterior çap (opisthion- basion arası mesafe) arasında anlamlı pozitif ilişki vardı (r=0,63; p
