Effects of nasal wall lateralization and pyriform turbinoplasty on nasal air conditioning
Background: The inferior turbinate, as part of the nasal valve area, plays a key role in directing the airflow and moisturizing and heating the inspired air. Excessive resection of the inferior turbinate leads to a significant reduction in heating and humidification of inhaled air. Different types of turbinate surgery are described in the current literature. Pyriform Turbinoplasty is a new endo...
متن کاملNumerical simulation and nasal air-conditioning
Heating and humidification of the respiratory air are the main functions of the nasal airways in addition to cleansing and olfaction. Optimal nasal air conditioning is mandatory for an ideal pulmonary gas exchange in order to avoid desiccation and adhesion of the alveolar capillary bed. The complex three-dimensional anatomical structure of the nose makes it impossible to perform detailed in viv...
متن کاملNewborn nasal obstruction due to congenital nasal pyriform aperture stenosis.
INTRODUCTION Nasal obstruction is an important condition that can lead to severe respiratory distress in newborns. There are several differential diagnoses, and one of them is congenital nasal pyriform aperture stenosis (CNPAS). CNPAS is a rare case of respiratory distress caused by excessive growth of the nasal process of the maxilla and leads to narrowing of the anterior third of the nasal ca...
متن کاملNasal wall lateralization: a novel technique to improve nasal airway obstruction.
he nasal valve is the narrowest region of the nasal passage, nd the main, flow-limiting segment of the nasal cavity.1,2 ariations in the size and shape of the nasal cavity affect he rate and pattern of airflow and influence nasal function. t therefore seems likely that improved nasal patency may lleviate snoring and sleep-disordered breathing.3,4 Traditional surgical management of nasal obstruc...
متن کاملCorrelation of nasal morphology to air-conditioning and clearance function.
Nasal morphology plays an important functional role in the maintenance of upper airway health. Identification of functional regions, based on morphological attributes, assists in correlating location to primary purpose. The effects of morphological variation on heat and water mass transport in congested and patent nasal airways were investigated by examining nasal cross-sectional MRI images fro...
