## 4 Discussion  
Extensive studies on the size of the sella turcica have been published using various measuring methods. The mean length values that have been reported are 8.13 mm in the [PERSON] study, 8.4 mm in the [PERSON] study, 9.1 mm in the [PERSON] study, 9.74 mm in the [PERSON] study, 10.3 mm in the [PERSON] study, 11.3 mm in the [PERSON] study, and 12 mm in the [PERSON] and [PERSON] study [20; 26; 27; 28; 29; 30; 31]. In the current study, the length varied from 6.12 mm (the lowest) to 12.45 mm (the highest), with a mean of 8.98 mm. The mean height in [PERSON] and [PERSON]'s and [PERSON] studies was 8 mm, which was similar to our findings [31; 32]. In [PERSON]'s study, the mean height was 6.06 mm, while in [PERSON]'s study, it was 7.3 mm [26; 27]. [PERSON] and [PERSON]'s research revealed heights greater than 10.3 mm and 9.9 mm, respectively [20; 30]. In this study, the anteroposterior diameter ranged from 8.96 mm to 13.94 mm, with an average of 10.29 mm. Similar diameters were discovered in the research of [PERSON] and [PERSON], 10.9 mm and 9.94 mm, respectively [27; 33]. The findings were not consistent with those of [PERSON], [PERSON], and [PERSON], whose values were higher [20; 30; 32]. There is a little discrepancy between the results discovered in our study and those found in other studies; however, these discrepancies can be linked to different measurement methods and ethnicities, as our study was conducted on Romanian participants. Few studies have examined the link between sella turcica size and skeletal class. In this study, a significant difference was observed between participants in classes II and III in all three dimensions and those in classes I and II in length. An increase in size appears to be more common in class III participants, whereas a decrease in size tends to be more common in class II or class I subjects. The anteroposterior diameter was increased in class III patients and reduced in class II patients from Saudi Arabia, Serbia, and South India, according to [PERSON], [PERSON] et al., and [PERSON] [20; 28; 33]. [PERSON] and [PERSON] et al. found no association between the size of the sella turcica and different skeletal classes [30; 34]. According to the findings of this research, 51% of the participants had a normal sella turcica. Other variations were found in 48.9% of situations. In his study, [PERSON] documented the normal morphology of the sella turcica in 67% of subjects [20]. In both studies, the most common variation was irregularity of the sella's posterior wall (11%). Also, the percentage of individuals with an anterior oblique wall was comparable in both studies. The pyramidal shape was more common in the current study. In prior studies, the prevalence of sella bridge ranged from 4.6% to 11.1% in healthy individuals [32; 35]. In the current study, 10% of individuals had a sella bridge. A total of 1.1% of patients in the investigation conducted by [PERSON] exhibited a sella turcica bridge [20]. [PERSON] et al. conducted a study in which they observed that sella turcica bridge was present in 18.6% of the patients diagnosed with severe craniofacial disorders [36]. A sella turcica bridge was \begin{table}
