Accessory mental foramen: findings of cone-beam computed tomography

Year 2015, Volume: 18 Issue: 2, 192 - 197, 24.04.2015

Abstract

Accessory mental foramen (AMF) is defined as the foramens other than the principle foramen in mental foramen field. Localization and the number of variations that vary by race and ethnic group have been reported. The use of cone-beam computed tomography in assessment of AMF provides the opportunity to evaluate the cross-sectional and three-dimensional reconstructions of field. CBCT findings of AMF detected in a 23 years of female patient is presented in this report.

Aksesuar Mental Foramen: Konik Işınlı Bilgisayarlı Tomografi Bulguları-Accessory Mental Foramen: Findings of cone-beam computed tomography

Year 2015, Volume: 18 Issue: 2, 192 - 197, 24.04.2015

Abstract

Aksesuar mental foramen (AMF), MF bölgesinde, MF’in birden fazla olması durumunda asıl foramenin dışındaki diğer foramenler olarak tanımlanmıştır. AMF’in lokalizasyon ve sayı varyasyonlarının ırk ve etnik yapıya göre farklılık gösterdiği rapor edilmiştir. Bu anatomik varyasyonun değerlendirilmesinde konik ışınlı bilgisayarlı tomografi kullanımı, ilgili alanın 3 boyutlu rekonstrüksiyonlarına ve kesitsel olarak değerlendirilmesine olanak sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada 23 yaşındaki kadın hastada tespit edilen AMF olgusuna ait KIBT bulguları sunulmaktadır.
