Morphometry of the Digastric Ridge and Its Significance for Mastoid Surgeries-A Cadaveric Study.

CONCLUSION: Prominence and the length of the DR, as well as the FN-DR distance, are significantly more in well-pneumatized bones compared to poorly pneumatized bones. This finding has potential surgical implications with reduced risk of injury to the FN resulting from a conspicuous DR in well-pneumatized bones. PMID: 31578103 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
