Abstract

Background: A wide range of medical procedures in the zygomatic region in maxillofacial surgery, implantology, and aesthetic medicine requires a detailed study of the zygomaticofacial foramen (ZFF) due to the high risk of damage to its contents during manipulation.This study aimed to estimate the shape, diameter, and location of ZFF and their relationships with anatomical landmarks.

Materials and methods: A studywas conductedon 53 dry adult human skulls. Standard morphometric measurementswere takenusing sliding calipers.The number, diameter, shape, and location of ZFF were notedon both sides, andthe distances between the ZFF and surrounding anatomical landmarks were measured.Conventional statistical methods were usedto evaluate the data.

Results: Out of 106 sides, no ZFFwas noticedin 2.8%, one foramen was found in 40.6%, two foramina were found in 39.6%, threein 10.4%, four in 4.7%, andfive in 1.9%. The vertical diameter was 0.98 ± 0.35 mm, while the transverse diameter was 0.87 ± 0.31 mm. The shape of the ZFF was oval in 67%, round in 26.2%, semilunar in 4.9%, and irregular in 1.9%. The distance from the ZFF to the infraorbital margin was 6.63 ± 2.09 mm, tothe frontozygomatic suture was 26.24 ± 3.49 mm, tothe zygomaticomaxillarysuture,was 19.75 ± 3.55 mm, tothe zygomaticotemporal suture was 22.31 ± 3.98 mm and, to the most prominent point of the zygomatic bone was 8.03 ± 2.64 mm.

Conclusions: The variations in the number and location of ZFF mustbe consideredwhile performing regional blockanesthesia,and surgical or aesthetic procedures in the zygomatic region.

干成人头骨中的颧面孔:形态学研究。
背景:在颌面外科、种植学和美容医学中,颧骨区的各种医疗程序都需要对颧骨孔(ZFF)进行详细研究,因为在操作过程中很有可能损伤其内容物。本研究旨在估计颧骨孔的形状、直径和位置及其与解剖标志物的关系:对 53 个干燥的成人头骨进行了研究。使用滑动卡尺进行标准形态测量,记录两侧 ZFF 的数量、直径、形状和位置,并测量 ZFF 与周围解剖标志物之间的距离,使用常规统计方法评估数据:在 106 个切面中,2.8% 的切面未发现 ZFF,40.6% 的切面发现一个孔,39.6% 的切面发现两个孔,10.4% 的切面发现三个孔,4.7% 的切面发现四个孔,1.9% 的切面发现五个孔。垂直直径为 0.98 ± 0.35 毫米,横向直径为 0.87 ± 0.31 毫米。ZFF 的形状为椭圆形的占 67%,圆形的占 26.2%,半月形的占 4.9%,不规则的占 1.9%。从 ZFF 到眶下缘的距离为 6.63 ± 2.09 mm,到前颧骨缝的距离为 26.24 ± 3.49 mm,到颧颌骨缝的距离为 19.75 ± 3.55 mm,到颧颞骨缝的距离为 22.31 ± 3.98 mm,到颧骨最突出点的距离为 8.03 ± 2.64 mm:在颧骨区域进行区域阻滞麻醉、外科手术或美容手术时,必须考虑到 ZFF 数量和位置的变化。

期刊介绍: "Folia Morphologica" is an official journal of the Polish Anatomical Society (a Constituent Member of European Federation for Experimental Morphology - EFEM). It contains original articles and reviews on morphology in the broadest sense (descriptive, experimental, and methodological). Papers dealing with practical application of morphological research to clinical problems may also be considered. Full-length papers as well as short research notes can be submitted. Descriptive papers dealing with non-mammals, cannot be accepted for publication with some exception.
