Abstract Purpose The objective of this study was to prove the higher frequency of the type 6 deformations overall compared to the results obtained by conventional diagnostic methods, such as computed tomography images and clinical examination. Methods The study was performed at the Institute of Anatomy, where a total of 114 randomly selected skulls were examined. The skulls were then scanned in a fixed position using the cone-beam technique (CBCT). The literature epidemiological data of the clinical incidence of type 6 in studies that also used Mladina classification were obtained. Results There was a statistically significant difference (p 0.11. At the level of significance of 0.01%, statistical test resulted in fact that the H0 hypothesis can be rejected, and the H1 hypothesis can be accepted. That means that at the level of significance of 0.01% we can assume that the type 6 nasal septal deformations are more often than we thought regarding clinical examination and computed tomography. The data were also statistically tested by McNemar test (MedCalc®, MedCalc Software, Belgium). p value lower than 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.

(b) CT scans of the skulls There were 9 skulls with this type of deformation, which corresponds a number of 7.9% (Fig. 6; Table 1). There was a statistically significant difference (p
