Here, the caudal septum’s contribution to the internal nasal valve area is highlighted and an explanati...
متن کاملRelationship between septal body size and septal deviation.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have described inferior turbinate hypertrophy compensatory to a septal deviation. The septal body contains vasoactive tissue that may behave in a manner similar to the inferior turbinate. The septal body, situated in the nasal valve region, may undergo changes that alter nasal anatomy and airflow patterns. The goal was to compare the size of the septal body to the l...
