Abstract:
The anatomical dimensions of the maxillary sinus may vary across populations, with limited cadaveric data available for the North Indian population. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the morphometric dimensions of the maxillary sinus in North Indian cadavers, assessing bilateral variations. The results revealed the mean sinus height, width, anteroposterior length and volume in this population. Slight variations were noted between sides, but the differences were not statistically significant. Thus, we report baseline morphometric data of the maxillary sinus in the North Indian population to aid safer surgical planning.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
