Clinical Implications in Orbital and Pterional Flap Surgeries as Well as Radioimaging Studies to Determine Topographical Prevalence and Characterization of Meningo-Orbital Foramen in Orbits of the Indian Population

SUMMARY: The pear-shaped bony orbit connects with intracranial cavity via foramina’s and fissures. The Meningo-orbital Foramen (MOF) is usually present in greater wing of sphenoid close to lateral edge of Superior orbital fissure. It provides a route for an anastomosis between the orbital...

The Meningo-orbital Foramen (MOF) is usually present in greater wing of sphenoid close to lateral edge of Superior orbital fissure.

The presence for MOF was studied in 446 dry orbits with its location from the supra orbital margin (SOM), front zygomatic suture (FZS), the lateral tubercle of Whitnall (WT)and the lateral end of superior orbital fissure (SOF) along with its patency, laterality and number of foramina’s present. Nylon probes, long divider/pins, compass and Vernier callipers was used to check the patency and various parameters. The study noted the percentage prevalence of MOF as 69 % with communication with middle cranial fossa (MCF) being 76 % of 69 % and the average distance from SOM, FZS, WT and lateral end of SOF being 35.58 mm, 24.9 mm, 26.6 mm and 0.92 mm. On comparison with various population studies, certain similarities and differences with regards to different parameters were noted. Prevalence of MOF was mostly unilateral and showed multiple foramina, that can act as channels for arteries, a variant of MMA or OA, that supply orbital structures or tumour growths. Thus, awareness of this variation is of prime importance to ophthalmologists and neurosurgeons as well as interventional radiologists, in preventing haemorrhagic condition which could further raise the difficulties in operative procedures and surgical outcomes.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Chilena de AnatomíaInternational Journal of Morphology v.38 n.6 20202020-12-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0717-95022020000601810en10.4067/S0717-95022020000601810
