dc.description.abstractObjectives: The craniovertebral junction is a complex transition area between the skull and the cervical vertebra. This study aimed to evaluate the typical structure of the craniovertebral junction according to gender and age on comput- erized tomography (CT). Methods: In the study, 100 (50 female, 50 male) individuals between the ages of 25-45 who applied to Bakırçay Univer- sity Çiğli Training and Research Hospital between 2018 and 2022 and underwent head and neck CT scans were evalu- ated. Fourteen craniometric measurements were made on the sagittal plane. Results: In women, cervical lordosis angle, anterior atlantodental length, posterior atlantodental length, McRae line, dens axis length, Wackenheim clivus canal angle, craniocervical tilt angle, foramen magnum width, clivus length, pB- C2 line length, dens axis width and dens axis length values were found to be statistically significantly lower than men (p<0.05). In addition, a statistically significant difference was found between the Powers ratio and age groups. Conclusion: Craniovertebral junction anatomy and detecting anomalies are essential for radiologists and neurosur- geons, and CT is a suitable method to evaluate this junction. We think these findings obtained from healthy individuals with CT imaging will guide the evaluation of craniovertebral junction anomalies.
