| Morphological aberrations of the sella turcica were assessed in Turkish adults, modern and those of past centuries. Lateral cephalographs taken from 32 adult (23 male, 9 female, Group 1), dry skull base specimens (Late Ottoman Period), and pretreatment cephalographs of 35 adult patients (21 male, 14 female, Group 2) scheduled for orthodontic treatment at Gazi University Orthodontic Clinic were studied. Both samples had Angle Class I relationships. Prevelance of six different morphological types was determined. These include oblique anterior wall, sella turcica bridging, double contour of the floor, irregularity (notching) in the posterior part of dorsum sellae, and pyramidal shape of dorsum sellae. Normal morphology of sella turcica was found in 40.6%, 54.3%, and 47.8% in Group1, 2, and total, respectively. Sella turcica bridging (15.6%) and irregularities of the posterior part of dorsum sellae (18.8%) were more common in dry skulls, while the double contour of the floor (14.3%) and irregularities of the posterior part of dorsum sellae (14.3%) were more common in Group 2. Sella turcica bridging (15.6%) occurred more often in Group 1. There is a noticeable variation in the morphology of sella turcica in this population of normal adults. In approximately one half of the cases, sella turcica was rated as normal and a variety of dysmorphological types was detected. The results can be important when compared with data concerning patients with craniofacial aberrations and syndromes. As bridging of the sella has suggestive associations with disease entities, deviations from the normal anatomy should be evaluated. |
