Abstract
The face and the cranium have been the focus of many studies in the literature. A great number of them were done to establish different facial patterns. The human face is the most specialized part of the human body with many functional and structural variations. The structural variations grant individuality to the persons making them unique and different from each other. The multidisciplinary teams working in human reproduction centers have often found difficulties to proper select compatible donors. Knowing the different facial types may help to improve the protocols for donor selection.
