The aim of this study is to investigate the presence of condylar and ramal asymmetry in patients with a cyst larger than 10 mm in the maxilla or mandible.
Condylar and ramal asymmetry index measurements of 47 patients (mean age: 28.85 ± 15.348) in the study group and 40 patients in the control group (mean age: 33.73 ± 13.095) were performed using panoramic radiographs. The study group consists of patients with cysts larger than 10 mm in diameter in the maxilla or mandible. The control group consisted of patients with no radiolucent lesions and no history of trauma. The possible statistical difference between the groups was evaluated by the Mann-Whitney U test.
No statistically significant difference was observed in asymmetry indices according to gender and the jaw (maxilla or mandible) in which the cyst was located. However, it was determined that CAI and RAI values were statistically significantly different between the study and control groups (p = 0.047 and p = 0.016, respectively).
The presence of intraosseous cysts larger than 10 mm in the jaws was found to be associated with condylar and ramal asymmetry.
本研究旨在探讨上颌或下颌骨中大于 10mm 的囊肿患者髁突和升支不对称的情况。
使用全景片对研究组的 47 名患者（平均年龄：28.85±15.348）和对照组的 40 名患者（平均年龄：33.73±13.095）进行髁突和升支不对称指数测量。研究组包括上颌或下颌骨中直径大于 10mm 的囊肿患者。对照组由无透光性病变且无外伤史的患者组成。通过曼-惠特尼 U 检验评估组间可能存在的统计学差异。
性别和囊肿所在的颌骨（上颌或下颌）对不对称指数无统计学显著差异。然而，研究组和对照组的 CAI 和 RAI 值存在统计学显著差异（p=0.047 和 p=0.016）。
颌骨中存在大于 10mm 的颌骨内囊肿与髁突和升支不对称有关。
