Objectives: After leaving supraorbital notch or foramen, the supraorbital nerve which is one of the terminal branch of frontal nerve innervates the area between upper eyelid and lamboid suture. For the blockage of this nerve, the supraorbital notch where the nerve is unbranched is the convenient point for using less anesthetic and reducing the number of injection. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the morphometry of this notch and determine the correct point of injection. Metods: The distance between the notch and midline and the height of the notch according the nasion were measured on 50 adult craniums by using digital caliper. Results: The mean distance between the notch and midline was 21.4±3.86 mm on left side and 21.6±4.76 mm on right side. The mean height of the notch according the nasion was 9.2±3.05 mm bilaterally. Thedevelopment of the supraorbital foramen was found in 30% of right orbits and 26% of left orbits. And it was obvious that the entrapment neuropathy of this nerve is more likely in supraorbital foramen than notch. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
