[Craniofacial growth modified by the blood supply. 7. Dry weight of the skull and growth of the mandible].
The dry weight of the skull and jaw bone increases faster in operated rats than in the controls during the fourth and 12 months, but their rates of growth do not differ in the 8th month. The distances measured on the mandible reveal definite sexual dimorphism in the development of the different lengths and heights, these distance being greater in the male rats. Growth in the length of the processes predominated over the growth of the body of the mandible. Local changes in the bone were observed at the points of origin and attachment of muscles.
