Abstract

Aims and Objectives: The jugular foramen is known to have a wide variation among different ethnicities for its anatomical variations and is also a well known area for pathological lesions such as glomus tumours, Schwannomas etc. The treatment of such lesions often involves drilling the bony area around the jugular foramen. The present study is the morphometric evaluation of the dimensions of jugular foramen in regard to the variability in shape and size of jugular foramen and the relationship between antero-posterior diameter (APD) and mediolateral diameter (ML) of jugular foramen on each side (right & left).
