Trauma of the Frontal Region Is Influenced by the Volume of Frontal Sinuses. A Finite Element Study

Anatomy of frontal sinuses varies individually, from differences in volume and shape to a rare case when the sinuses are absent. However, there are scarce data related to influence of these variations on impact generated fracture pattern. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the influence...
