Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of adenoid hypertrophy on the growth and development of cranio-maxillofacial hard tis-sues in children at different growth stages.Methods:The cephalic lateral images of 232 children aged 4 to 16 years were measured and analyzed by Bjork-Jarabak cephalometric analysis.The patients were divided into 3 groups:CVM 1-2(A),CVM 3-4(B)and CVM 5-6(C)according to cervical vertebral maturation(CVM).Adenoid hypertrophy group and normal group were set up by Adenoi-dal-Nasopharyngeal Ratio(A/N Ratio)of 0.61.A,B and C groups included 28,55 and 23 cases in the subjects with adenoid hyper-trophy,and 12,65 and 49 cases in those of normal controls respectively.T-test was used to explore the difference of growth and devel-opment measurements among different subgroups of the same CVM stage and the change trend of the difference in different CVM sta-ges.Results:Hypertrophic adenoid children's S-Ar,N-Me and S-Ar/Ar-Go were significantly larger in CVM 1-2 subjects(P＜0.05);Ar-Go-Me,N-S-Ar and Ar-Go-N were significantly larger in CVM 5-6 subjects(P＜0.05),while S-Ar-Go decreased significantly(P＜0.05);S-N,Go-Me,S-Go,S-N/Go-Me and Ar-Go/N-Me had no significant differences in the whole stages(P＜0.05).Conclu-sion:Adenoid hypertrophy has great effect on the cranio-maxillofacial growth trend.It induces more posterior position of condyle,tilt-ing back of mandibular ramus,vertical growth and clockwise rotation of the mandible and incline to form class Ⅱ malocclusion.The effects are more prominant in early and late growth and development stages of the children.
