1. Title: Base of Skull Morphometry
Funder: Self
Summary: An essential component of the skull base anatomy is the external aperture of the carotid canal, which is located inferioriorly on the petrous portion of the temporal bone. During surgical procedures and planning, multidisciplinary surgical teams must consider its location, morphology, and relationship to significant adjacent structures. The characteristics of the external aperture of the carotid canal have been reported to vary and be abnormally different across populations in previous studies. However, none of these incidents have been reported among Nigerians.
Aim and Objective: The aim of this study is to characterize the shapes and appearances of the external opening of the carotid canal in a Nigerian population, as well as its relationships to other significant anatomically related structures like the mastoid process, foramen magnum, and midline of the carotid canal.
Methods: From the collection of the Anatomy department of the University of Ibadan, we obtained 50 dry human skull bones of unknown gender and age. We took pictures of the skull base with a Canon Iso 500 digital camera. With the aid of Image J software, we accessed some anatomical positions and calculated Euclidean distances. The shape of the opening was also noted. Paleontological Statistics (PAST 3.0) was used to perform descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation, median, range, and mode) on all sets of measurements, and the students’ t-test was used to compare the right and left values.
Role: Principal investigator
Collaborators: Colleagues in Anthropology and Neurosurgery.
