Analysis of the Frontal Sinus Morphology and the Titanium Plates Shape in Skull Fracture for Human Identification

Human identification can be performed by several methods, as anatomical structures of the facial skeletal and individuals signals. The aim of this study was to report a case of human identification from the morphological evaluation of the frontal sinus and the presence of titanium plates in skull af...
