[Morphological and morphometric study of sphenoidal sinus].
Thanks to the help of anatomical dissections and imaging techniques we way present this paper in which are described the morphologic characteristics of the sinus, its pneumatization types more frequently encountered, the traits more noteworthy related to the intersinusal partition and bone crests inside the sinus as well the distances detaching the sinus from the anterior wall of the sella turcica and clivus, through which wall the sinus cavity keeps in touch with noble cranial structures as the hypophysis and the brain stem. Ultimately our outcomes are compared with those given by other researchers.
