Frontal sinus dimensions can differ significantly between individuals within a monozygotic twin pair, indicating environmental influence on sinus sizes.

Acta oto-laryngologica - 1 Sept 2012

Kjær Inger, Pallisgaard Carsten, Brock-Jacobsen Mette Toft

Abstract excerpt

CONCLUSION: The study showed that the size of the frontal sinus is not determined solely by genotype, but that other factors, e.g. environment, seem to affect the size as well. Environmental factors may include, for example diseases, trauma, allergies, acquired conditions, nutrition or medicine use. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of the study was to compare sinus dimensions between individuals within a monozygotic twin...
