[The x-ray anatomical indices of the pterygopalatine fossa in patients with congenital jaw deformities].
The anthropometric and anatomical features of the pterygopalatine fossa were studied in 63 skulls of subjects belonging to 3 age groups, 60 roentgenograms of subjects without deformations of the facial skull were analyzed for the same purpose, and 50 patients with various deformations of the facial and cerebral skull were examined. The authors have detected a relationship between the length and width of the pterygopalatine fossa and the size of the posterior facial height, which fact should be born in mind to prevent the complications of bone reconstructive surgery in the middle zone of the facial skull.
