title: [Mathematic modeling of the shape and size of the ethmoidal labyrinth].
abstract: The present work was designed to study craniometric characteristics of ethmoidal labyrinths, facial and cerebral skeleton and to define mathematical correlation between the parameters of ethmoidal labyrinth and facial and cerebral skeleton. As a result average, minimal and maximal values of linear parameters and the parameters of the volume of ethmoidal labyrinths were calculated. Correlational, regressive and factor analyses of the craniometric characteristics studied were carried out. Significant regression equations for calculating width, height, length and volume of ethmoidal labyrinths for different types of cerebral skeleton were obtained.
