Prevalence of different combined patterns of frontal sinus and nasal septum in men and women referring to a treatment center in Isfahan
چکیده [English]Introduction: Frontal sinus and nasal septum have different forms in different people. Frontal sinuses are different in shape even in monozygotic twins. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of different combined patterns of frontal sinus and nasal septum in men and women referring to a treatment center in Isfahan. Materials and methods: In this descriptive/analytical study Water’s views of 198 subjects aged 20‒40 were collected. The particulars of frontal sinuses in relation to the presence or absence of the sinus proper, symmetry or asymmetry, the form of the septum and the superior border outline of the sinus and the form of the nasal septum were evaluated and recorded. Data were analyzed with chi-squared test (α= 0.05). Results: Bilateral presence of frontal sinus was observed in 100% of the subjects. There were no relations between sex and the presence of a septum within the frontal sinus (p value = 0.53), sinus symmetry (p value = 0.35), and form of the nasal septum (p value = 0.89). There was a significant relation between sex and the presence of a scalloped superior border outline of frontal sinuses (p value < 0.05), with more scalloped borders in men compared to women. Conclusion: Under the limitations of the present study, it was concluded that the combined patterns of frontal sinuses and nasal septa on radiographs cannot be used to distinguish males from females. Key words: Forensic dentistry, Frontal sinus, Nasal septum.
