Morphometric Analysis of the Greater Palatine Foramina in the Bosnia and Herzegovina Population.
Acta Med Acad
December 2024
Department of Anatomy, Medical Faculty, University in Sarajevo, Čekaluša 90, 71 000 Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Objective: The goal of this research was to examine the morphological characteristics and exact anatomical positioning of the greater palatine foramen (GPF), with reference to nearby anatomical landmarks.
Material And Method: The research was performed on dry human skulls belonging to the Bosnian and Herzegovina population, using digital vernier calipers. The study began by noting the GPF's position relative to the maxillary molars, then measuring its distance from the median palatine suture (MPS), the incisive fossa (IF), the posterior border of the hard palate (PBHP), and the posterior nasal spine (PNS).
Impacted supernumerary tooth in the horizontal plate of palatine bone: a rare case report.

Background: Supernumerary teeth, defined as extra teeth beyond the normal series of dentition, can appear anywhere in the dental arch. They may present as solitary or multiple, unilateral or bilateral, and can be either erupted or impacted. Rarely, supernumerary teeth are found in ectopic locations outside the dental arches, such as the nasal cavity, inferior nasal conchae, maxillary sinus, ethmoid sinus, or skull.

Purpose: To report a rare anatomical variant of the maxillary sinuses, with radiological and clinical emphasis.
Methods: A 40-year-old male with recurrent acute rhinosinusitis presented to our center for clinical management. A computed tomography scan revealed the presence of an incidental anatomical variant of bilateral maxillary sinuses for which we coin the term "kissing antra".
[Study on simulated airflow dynamics of children with obstructive sleep apnea treated by different surgical methods].

Article Synopsis
- The study examined the effects of adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy, and combined tonsillectomy with adenoidectomy on children with obstructive sleep apnea using computational fluid dynamics simulations.
- Using various surgical models and analyzing pressure, flow velocity, and flow distribution, the researchers identified changes in airflow dynamics post-surgery.
- Results showed that combined surgery led to improved airflow uniformity in the upper airway, while each individual procedure also altered pressure and flow characteristics differently.
Morphometric Evaluation of the Greater Palatine Foramen in Patients With Cleft lip and Palate (CLP) and Controls: A CBCT Study.
Cleft Palate Craniofac J
November 2024
Student Research Committee, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, School of Dentistry, Shiraz, Iran.
Objective: This study aimed to use cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans to compare the morphometric characteristics of the greater palatine foramen (GPF) in unilateral and bilateral cleft lip/palate patients (CL/P) and non-cleft (NC) individuals.
Method And Material: One hundred patients with CL/P (78 unilateral and 22 bilateral) and 100 non-cleft individuals had their GPF morphometrically assessed in CBCT images. The antero-posterior width and medio-lateral width of the GPF, the distance between the right and left GPFs, the mesio-distal location of the GPF with respect to the molar teeth, the distance between the GPF and the hamulus of the medial pterygoid plate, and the distance between the GPF and the palatine alveolar ridge were measured on these images.
