Abstract

Giriş: Kraniovertebral bileşke oksipital kemik, atlas, axis ve destekleyici ligamentlerden oluşur. Instabilite tedavisine yönelik cerrahi müdahaleler, bu bölgenin morfometrik özelliklerinin bilinmesini gerektirir. Bu nedenle, çalışmanın amacı, kraniovertebral bileşkeye katılan kemiklerin morfometrik özelliklerini değerlendirmek ve analiz etmektir. Materyal ve Metod: Arkeolojik kazılarda bulunan kuru kemikler üzerinde morfometrik analiz yapılmıştır. Çalışmamızda 9 oksipital kemik, 18 atlas ve 16 axis ölçülmüştür. Ölçümler arasındaki farklar t-testleri kullanılarak belirlenmiş ve p

Morphometric Features of Craniovertebral Junction Bones

Abstract

Introduction: The craniovertebral junction comprises the occipital bone, atlas, axis and supporting ligaments. Surgical interventions for treatment of instability, require knowledge of morphometric properties of this area. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate adult dried human skulls to analyze morphometric features of the bones that joined the craniovertebral junction. Materials and Methods: Morphometric analysis was performed on dry bones which found in the excavations. 9 occipital bone, 18 atlas and 16 axis were measured. Differences between measurements were determined using t-tests and were considered significant at p
