Retrospective analysis of the upper airway anatomy and Sella turcica morphology across different skeletal malocclusions: a computerized technique

The major findings are the presence of a reduced nasopharyngeal volume in skeletal Class III malocclusions while skeletal Class II individuals displayed a diminished hypopharyngeal volume, making these critical areas to consider during the diagnostic and orthodontic treatment planning stages. This study also revealed a consistent correlation between Sella turcica parameters across various facial skeletal profiles, with skeletal Class II patients exhibiting a distinct pattern and skeletal Class I and Class III demonstrating an average relationship.
