چکیده

This article discusses the development and anatomy of the nasal septum and structures of the lateral nasal wall. Emphasis is placed on anatomic variations associated with surgically correctable nasal obstruction. Common variations, such as deviated nasal septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, paradoxic middle turbinate, and concha bullosa, are discussed. Rare developmental causes of nasal obstruction are briefly outlined.

Relationship 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...

Introduction Middle nasal turbinate (concha) is one of three or four lateralto-medial extroflexions of the lateral nasal wall: they are the inferior turbinate, whose bony skeleton is an independent bone, and middle, superior and sometime supreme turbinates, whose bony structures are part of the ethmoid bone. Embryogenesis of the last three turbinates is a process induced by active intramural pn...
