The Radiological Evaluation of the Crista Galli and Its Clinical Implications for Anterior Skull Base Surgery.

摘要: INTRODUCTION Crista galli is extremely important in the endoscopic transcribriform approaches and some extradural approaches. Because of its clinical significance, morphometric properties crista should be well known. In this study, it was aimed to examine morphometry pneumatization incidence cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. MATERIAL AND METHODS retrospective length width were measured CBCT images 300 healthy individuals. Besides, presence examined. RESULTS The determined as 14.03 ± 2.93 mm 3.73 ± 1.48 mm, respectively. Pneumatized detected 53 out individuals (17.67%). There no statistical difference between both values (P = 0.876 P = 0.478, respectively). addition, relationship age (P = 0.167). CONCLUSION seen that (range: 6.00-23.40 mm) 1.40-8.00 mm) are a very wide range. literature range (2.4% 66.6%). Based on available data, will not possible determine specific for morphometry. Therefore, authors think CT imaging preoperative evaluation.
