One of the risks in dysgnathia-operations performed on the mandibula is the injury to the anatomic formations inside the mandibular channel. The paper deal with anatomic sites recommended in the literature for measurements. The occurrence of a sulcus colli mandibulae and the depth of the bone groove is investigated, and their part as an operative risk factor is presented. Attention is drawn consequently to individual variations and a careful surgical technique is recommended.
