目的:眶上神经及其分支的出口点在各种医疗程序中具有重要意义,包括眶上内窥镜手术,前额面部美学整形手术,医学美学应用和颌面手术。因此,本研究的主要目的是精确定义维度,眶上孔/切迹的位置和临床意义。通过这样做,我们的目的是提高我们对这一解剖结构及其对眶上区域手术和美学干预的影响的认识.
方法:对于我们的研究,我们进行了解剖解剖和骨测量,以评估眶上孔/切迹的解剖变异的意义.我们使用了由28具尸体和38具头骨组成的样本。在所有28具尸体和38例干骨中对眶上孔/凹口进行了双侧分析。我们从形态上分析了眶上孔/凹口与各种解剖标志之间的距离,包括海军,眶上边缘,轨道下边缘,颞脊,glabella,正面腔和面部中线。此外,我们测量了眶上孔/凹口和额孔/凹口之间的距离,眶上孔/凹口的宽度和两个眶上孔/凹口之间的距离。
结果:有32个(57.14%)眶上孔,其余是尸体上的24个(42.86%)眶上凹口,有36个(47.37%)眶上孔,其余为40个(52.63%)颅上凹口。我们观察到左右两侧尸体和干头骨之间解剖测量参数的尺寸和位置值的一致性,参数“与时间波峰的距离”(p=0.042)除外。此外,我们的相关性分析显示,在所有参数中,右侧和左侧之间存在显著的正相关关系,除了以下情况:在干燥的头骨中,“与眶上边缘的距离”和尸体参数,“与颞峰的距离,与前腔的距离和宽度。\"
结论:在我们的研究中,我们观察到眶上孔和凹口的分布几乎相似。此外,我们的研究结果表明,尸体和头骨的右侧和左侧之间具有可比性。这些结果表明,在我们的研究样本中,眶上解剖结构具有一定程度的一致性,无论标本类型(尸体或头骨)或偏侧性(右侧或左侧)。

OBJECTIVE: The exit points of the supraorbital nerve and its branches hold significant importance in various medical procedures, including supraorbital endoscopic surgeries, forehead-facial
aesthetic plastic surgeries, medical
aesthetic applications and maxillofacial surgeries. Therefore, the primary objective of the present study was to precisely define the dimension, location and clinical significance of the supraorbital foramen/notch. By doing so, we aimed to enhance our understanding of this anatomical structure and its implications for surgical and
aesthetic interventions in the supraorbital region.
METHODS: For our study, we conducted anatomical dissections and bone measurements to assess the significance of anatomical variations of the supraorbital foramen/notch. We utilized a sample consisting of 28 cadavers and 38 skulls. The supraorbital foramen/notch was bilaterally analyzed in all 28 cadavers and 38 dry bones. We morphometrically analyzed the distance between the supraorbital foramen/notch and various anatomical landmarks, including the nasion, supraorbital margin, infraorbital margin, temporal crest, glabella, frontal cavity and midline of the face. Additionally, we measured the distance between the supraorbital foramen/notches and the frontal foramen/notches, and the width of the supraorbital foramen/notch and the distance between both supraorbital foramina/notches.
RESULTS: There are 32 (57.14%) supraorbital foramina, and the remaining are 24 (42.86%) supraorbital notches in cadavers and there are 36 (47.37%) supraorbital foramina, and the remaining are 40 (52.63%) supraorbital notches in skulls. We observed consistency in the dimension and location values of anatomical measurement parameters between cadavers and dry skulls on both right and left sides, with the exception of the parameter \"distance from temporal crest\" (p=0.042). Furthermore, our correlation analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between the right and left sides across all parameters, except for the following instances: in dry skulls, \"distance from supraorbital margin\" and in cadaver parameters, \"distance from temporal crest, \" \"distance from frontal cavity\" and \"width.\"
CONCLUSIONS: In our study, we observed that the distributions of supraorbital foramina and notches were nearly similar. Furthermore, our findings indicated comparable measurements between the right and left sides in both cadavers and skulls. These results suggest a degree of consistency in supraorbital anatomy within our study sample, regardless of the specimen type (cadavers or skulls) or laterality (right or left side).
