用连续切片,多点测量法对43例19～74岁人髁突软骨各带厚度进行了测量.结果显示:髁突软骨各带厚度不恒定,波动起伏较大.肥大带厚度在前斜面、横嵴与后斜面存在显著性差异(P<0.05).增殖带厚度在青年组与壮年、较老年组间存在显著性差异(P<0.05),但壮年组与老年组则无显著性差异(P>0.05),而各区厚度与年龄呈负相关关系.髁突软骨内同层不同区或同区不同层各带厚度间存在正相关关系.文内还就有关结构与功能之间的关系进行了讨论. The thickness of condylar cartilage in 43 cases aged 19-74 years old was measured by serial sectioning and multi-point measurement.The results showed that the thickness of each condylar cartilage was not constant, There was a significant difference between the lateral ridge and the posterior oblique surface (P <0.05) .The thickness of proliferation zone was significantly different between the young group and the old and the older group (P <0.05), but there was no significant difference between the aging group and the elderly group P> 0.05), while the thickness of each area was negatively correlated with age.The condylar cartilage in different layers of the same layer or with different layers of the thickness of each layer has a positive correlation between the text also on the relationship between structure and function Discuss.
