Morphologic evaluations of hypoglossal canal using cone beam computed tomography
Hypoglossal canal (HC) which begins from very slightly above the inner part of the anterolateral portion of the foramen magnum and is located above the occipital condyle of the occipital bone. The aim of this study is to examine HC morphology and variations using cone beam computed tomography (C...

| description | Hypoglossal canal (HC) which begins from very slightly above the inner part of the anterolateral portion of the foramen
magnum and is located above the occipital condyle of the occipital bone. The aim of this study is to examine HC morphology
and variations using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). The morphology and types of HC were investigated
with 303 CBCT images (606 side). Type 1 variation in 606 HC examined becomes the most commonly observed type
(57.3%) while type 5 variation was the least common type of variation (0.8%). Type 1 HC was statistically higher in
males (p=0.004). Because of HC, which is an anthropologically important point and enters the field of images in CBCT
scan, it is recommended that dental radiologists should be aware of their variations and be wary of the pathologies that
may occur in this region. |
