The purpose of this cross-sectional retrospective study was to evaluate the patterns of pharyngeal airway volume change determined by cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) stage and compare it with that which was characterized by chronological age. Correlations between hyoid bone positions and airway volumes were also examined. CVM staging was determined from cone-beam computed tomography scans of 420 white patients aged 9-15years. Patients were stratified on the basis of sex and skeletal pattern to establish pharyngeal airway vol
