In recent years, with the widespread use of imaging techniques such as paranasal sinus computed tomography (CT), many variations of nasal turbinates have been described. One of these variations known as concha bullosa (CB) is pneumatization of nasal turbinates. CB is the most frequently encountered anatomical variations of the middle turbinate. The term of septated concha bullosa has been descr...

The present study was aimed at describing the anatomy of nasal turbinates in adult Yankasa sheep using sectional anatomical planes and light microscopy. A total 5 heads were used. gross observations presented midsagittal serialized transverse sections. cavity comprised dorsal, middle ventral turbinates. These delineated by middle, common meatuses distinct morphological details different levels ...

The following article presents nasal septum and turbinate surgery. First an overview with special consideration of the anatomical and physiological background is given followed by indications for surgical procedures. Key steps of the gold standard procedure first described by Cottle and common variations are presented. Furthermore, some techniques dealing with special problems of the septumplas...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To develop a validated inferior turbinate grading scale. STUDY DESIGN Development and validation study. METHODS Phase 1 development (alpha test) consisted of a proposal of 10 different inferior turbinate grading scales (>1,000 clinic patients). Phase 2 validation (beta test) utilized 10 providers grading 27 standardized endoscopic photos of inferior turbinates using tw...

Surgical therapy of the inferior and/or middle turbinate is indicated when conservative treatment options have failed. The wanted goal is a reduction of the soft tissue volume of the turbinates regarding the individual anatomic findings and simultaneously conserving as much mucosa as possible. As the turbinates serve as a functional entity within the nose they take care of climatisation, moiste...
