Abstract:
:The aims of this study were to investigate gender differences in frontal sinus morphology and to estimate differences between Fijian and Western Samoan populations. Cephalograms of 118 Fijians (59 male, 59 female), 80 W. Samoans (33 male, 47 female) and 89 Japanese (60 male, 29 female) were used in this study. The thickness of the frontal sinus and the convexity of glabella in males were found to be larger than those of females in each population. The angle of Sg-N-G in the Fijians was larger than that of the Western Samoans and Japanese. In order to compare the frontal sinus morphology among populations, Mahalanobis' generalized distances were calculated on the basis of the five distance diameters. The results indicate that gender is separated by the first axis which indicates the overall size. Japanese samples were separated from South Pacific samples by the second axis which indicates the shape factor. In populational discrimination, there was a higher percentage of correct discriminations of the females of the males. In conclusion, gender difference was recognized in the size of the frontal sinus, and the populational differences were shown in the shape factor between Melanesian and Polynesian populations, and also between South Pacific and Japanese populations.
