La influencia de la función respiratoria en el desarrollo de estructuras orofaciales y postura craneocervical ha sido ampliamente discutida. El objetivo del estudio fue comparar valores cefalométricos de la región craneocervical e hioidea en sujetos con respiración nasal y oral. Se incluyeron sujetos...

Anatomy description of cervical region and hyoid apparatus in living giant anteaters Myrmecophaga tridactyla Linnaeus, 1758

Pesqui. vet. bras; 37 (11), 2017
The giant anteater has specific anatomical adaptations resulting from its ant and termite feeding habits. The unique arrangement of its hyoid apparatus is essential for the ingestion of food. However, its description in the literature is based on fragments and fossils, making it difficult to determine ex...

Estudo das alterações volumétricas faríngeas após cirurgia ortognática em pacientes classe III e sua influência no desenvolvimento da apneia obstrutiva do sono

A cirurgia ortognática para correção da maloclusão dentária classe III gera modificações na via aérea faríngea (VAF) que podem predispor à Síndrome da Apneia Obstrutiva do Sono (SAOS). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar, através de tomografia computadorizada por feixe cônico, as modificaçÃ...
