Objective: Pterion is an interesting bony landmark on the lateral aspect of the skull. It is ?H__ampersandsignlsquo; shaped sutural confluence formed by the articulation of four bones: frontal, parietal, greater wing of sphenoid and squamous part of temporal bone. Pterional approach is most widely used in neurosurgery for a variety of lesions in the anterior and middle cranial fossae. Since previous studies have reported the racial difference in the pterional morphology, in the present study it was aimed to study the sutural morphology of pteria and also to locate it with respect to the frontozygomatic suture. Methods: Seventy five (50 male and 25 female) skulls were studied on both the sides to evaluate the sutural pattern of pteria. The distance between center of the pterion to frontozygomatic suture was measured on both the sides. Results and Conclusion: According to the present study Sphenoparietal pterion was the commonest (77.33%) finding and was followed in frequency by Epipteric type (21.33%) and Stellate type (1.33%). Frontotemporal pterion was not observed. Average distance between the center of pterion and frontozygomatic suture was found to be 2.95 cm.
