Anatomic Variations of Sphenoid Sinus Pneumatization in a Sample of Turkish Population: MRI Study
There are a number of variations regarding morphometric anatomy and degree of pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus. In our study, we planned to examine and show the differences of pneumatization of the sphenoid sinus particularly to guide the neurosurgeon during transsphenoidal surgery. Sagittal T1-...
