Purpose. To study the morphotopometric data of ocular and sieve plates of the ethmoid bone in different visceral cranium forms and to define optimal size of surgical area for prevention of intra-operative orbital and intracranial complications. Material and methods. A total of 200 CT of human adult heads, aged from 21 to 65 without paranasal sinuses pathology were investigated. Spacing of ocular and sieve plates of the ethmoid bone in braincase were mastered. Results. The dependence of investigated parameters of the ethmoid bone to the forms of visceral cranium has been educed. Ocular and sieve plates of the ethmoid bone in large face forms of visceral cranium are placed closer to sagittal plain. This fact should be taken into account in surgical interventions on paranasal sinuses. Conclusion. It is essential to include computer craniometry in pre-surgical examina-tion of the patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. It is urgent to differentiate the form of vis-ceral cranium to supply and elaborate the data, gained by CT.
