A. Sosonna, K. V. Ostapchuk, N. A. Yurevych [at al.] // Azerbaijan Medical Journal. – 2023. – Vol. 3. – P. 160–165.https://repo.knmu.edu.ua/handle/123456789/33144The presented results of the study were conducted to determine the features of the cranio-metric indicators of the facial skull in mature individuals based on computer tomography data. A total of 40 participants, comprising 20 men and 20 women aged between 44 and 60 years, were includ-ed in the study. CT scans were performed on these individuals, and the following cranio-metric parameters were examined: cranial index, upper facial index, width of the upper jaw, and maximum width of the fore-head. During the study, it was found that the average cranial index was 77.3±1.85%. The upper facial index showed values of 53.37±3.57%, while the average width of the forehead was 13.75±0.5x10-2 m. Among the female participants, the majority exhibited a mesocranial type of skull (95% of individuals), with only 5% having a dolichocranial type. The average cranial index for these women was 78.1%. The mean cranial index for the entire sample remained consistent at 77.3±1.85%. Additionally, the mean upper facial index was 53.37±3.57%. The upper facial index is indicative of the ratio of the width of the upper face to its length and serves as a valuable tool for analyzing facial profiles. The average forehead width measured 13.75±0.5 x 10-2 m. These facial skull structure indicators can prove valuable in the planning of surgical interventions within the facial skull region, enabling a more precise analysis of individual patient characteristics and the determi-nation of optimal surgical approaches.enupper facial indexcranial indexupper facial index2023аArticle
