title: [Chronological development of the sphenoidal sinus].
abstract: In this paper are exposed the main characteristics of the sphenoidal sinus rise, through a follow-up of its growth during the life-span of the first 20 years of life. For so doing the AA. studied the antero-posterior diameters, the vertical greatest diameter and the several distances detaching this sinus from other important anatomical references, as well the various degrees of pneumatization that the cavity may reach according as the years go over.
