Abstract
The sagittal and transverse diameters of the foramen magnum were examined in 100 human skulls (74 male, 26 female). The results were statistically analyzed and compared with those obtained by other authors. Our findings show that the sagittal and transverse diameters are clearly different, as well as the total area of the foramen magnum, these parameters being larger in male skulls than in female.Entities:
