Frequency of Sella Turcica Bridge and Clinoid Enlargement in Lateral Cephalometric Plain Film Radiography from Peruvians

The purpose for the present study was to determine the frequency of sella turcica bridge and clinoid enlargement on lateral cephalometric plain film radiography from peruvians patients who attended our radiological center and identify any possible genre or age group associations. The sella turcica f...
