Abstract

Background Studies of non-metric cranial variants have been a field of considerable interest to research workers especially because of their racial and regional importance. Methodology: Total of 28 north Indian human crania of U.P. was studied for the incidence of patent posterior condylar canal. Results: Patent posterior condylar canal was found in 9 (32.1%) of total human crania. Conclusion: The presence of patent posterior condylar canal found to be of considerable regional and racial significance. [Gupta R et al NJIRM 2015; 6(3):58-59]
