The research goal is to study general strength, breaking point, Young's modulus (tensile modulus), absolute and relative strain of medial cerebral artery. Materials end methods. External diameter of medial cerebral artery, thickness of its wall and diameter of a lumen have been measured under the microscope on cross-section edges. In total 200 arteries (144 — from corpses of men, 56 — from corpses of women) received not later than 16 hours after autopsy of adults have been investigated. Results. Lethal cases resulted from acute or chronic vascular cerebral pathology have not been included in the study. Authentic predominance of wall thickness (14,8%), lumen diameter (50,3%) and general wall strength (13,8%) has been revealed statistically in men. Bilateral differences of parameters have been expressed by 1,0% (external diameter and wall thickness of an artery) to 10,0% (Young's modulus) and have been determined as statistically insignificant (p>0,05). Age aspect has shown intensity of morphological characteristics of medial cerebral artery. In conclusion it is worth while noting that after the age of 35 wall strength and resistance to strain of medial cerebral artery are authentically diminished; the artery becomes less rigid. Capability to elongation remains constant but after the age of 75 it decreases

In the experiment on monoaxonic longitudinal distension by tensile-testing machine Tira Test 28005 (Germany) with loading unit - 100 N the general rigidity, breaking point and relative lengthening of anterior cerebral artery (АСА) of adult people have been under study. Under the microscope on transverse sections the external diameter of the artery, its wall thickness have been measured and diameter of lumen have been calculated. In total 228 АСА (132 - from corpses of men, 92-from corpses of women) have been investigated. They have been received in 16 hours after autopsy of adult people whose cause of death has not been connected with vascular cerebral pathology. It has been revealed that right АСА is longer and narrower than left one. ACA's wall length and thickness predominate in men in comparison with women in average of 5,4 - 13,0%. With years АСА lengthens, its external diameter increases. Biomechanical parameters of ACA's wall do not have any authentic sexual differences, they don't depend on the side of the arterial ring. With years the rigidity of АСА decreases, especially in middle age. In old age its general rigidity increases. It is connected with the increase of ACA's wall thickness. The ability of АСА to lengthening doesn't depend upon age. Experimental findings may be used as criteria of age standard of morphological and biomechanical parameters of АСА

For the purpose of studying of morphological and biomechanical parameters of the basilar artery in an experiment on monoaxonic distension by tensile-testing machine Tira Test 28005 (Germany) with a loading cell — 100 N we determined general solidity, breaking point, maximum and relative deformation of the artery. Preliminary under a microscope on cross-section cuts we measured the external diameter of the artery, its wall thickness and calculated the diameter of the lumen. In total, 114 basilar arteries (66 — from corpses of men, 48 — from corpses of women) have been investigated. They were received not later than 16 hours after autopsy of adult people, whose cause of death has not been connected with a sharp vascular cerebral pathology. The statistically authentic prevalence of the size of wall thickness and general solidity of the men’s artery wall was revealed. In age aspect the external diameter, the lumen diameter and the wall thickness of the basilar artery increase. At the same time the solidity of the wall decreases and its ability to prolongation increases.

Regularities of anatomic changeability of upper and lower jaw's body length were studied in people with orthognatic bite at the age from 8 to 21. Established onthogenetic processes' regularities of jaw's growth and selected variant groups of individual changeability have practical significance in holding practical measures that notify bite's anomalies formation.
