Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore the relationship between the stylomastoid foramen—a small opening in the skull—and nearby bony structures to aid in surgical procedures.
- Researchers analyzed 62 dry adult skulls, measuring the foramen's shape, diameter, and distances to surrounding anatomical features using precise tools and statistical software.
- Findings revealed that the majority of stylomastoid foramens were circular or oval, with no significant differences found between the left and right foramens regarding their dimensions and distances to surrounding structures.
