  • NASAL CAVITY and PARANASAL SINUSES, PTERYGOPALATINE FOSSA, and ORAL CAVITY (Grant's Dissector [16Th Ed.] Pp
    NASAL CAVITY AND PARANASAL SINUSES, PTERYGOPALATINE FOSSA, AND ORAL CAVITY (Grant's Dissector [16th Ed.] pp. 290-294, 300-303) TODAY’S GOALS (Nasal Cavity and Paranasal Sinuses): 1. Identify the boundaries of the nasal cavity 2. Identify the 3 principal structural components of the nasal septum 3. Identify the conchae, meatuses, and openings of the paranasal sinuses and nasolacrimal duct 4. Identify the openings of the auditory tube and sphenopalatine foramen and the nerve and blood supply to the nasal cavity, palatine tonsil, and soft palate 5. Identify the pterygopalatine fossa, the location of the pterygopalatine ganglion, and understand the distribution of terminal branches of the maxillary artery and nerve to their target areas DISSECTION NOTES: General comments: The nasal cavity is divided into right and left cavities by the nasal septum. The nostril or naris is the entrance to each nasal cavity and each nasal cavity communicates posteriorly with the nasopharynx through a choana or posterior nasal aperture. The roof of the nasal cavity is narrow and is represented by the nasal bone, cribriform plate of the ethmoid, and a portion of the sphenoid. The floor is the hard palate (consisting of the palatine processes of the maxilla and the horizontal portion of the palatine bone). The medial wall is represented by the nasal septum (Dissector p. 292, Fig. 7.69) and the lateral wall consists of the maxilla, lacrimal bone, portions of the ethmoid bone, the inferior nasal concha, and the perpendicular plate of the palatine bone (Dissector p. 291, Fig. 7.67). The conchae, or turbinates, are recognized as “scroll-like” extensions from the lateral wall and increase the surface area over which air travels through the nasal cavity (Dissector p.

  • Splanchnocranium
    splanchnocranium - Consists of part of skull that is derived from branchial arches - The facial bones are the bones of the anterior and lower human skull Bones Ethmoid bone Inferior nasal concha Lacrimal bone Maxilla Nasal bone Palatine bone Vomer Zygomatic bone Mandible Ethmoid bone The ethmoid is a single bone, which makes a significant contribution to the middle third of the face. It is located between the lateral wall of the nose and the medial wall of the orbit and forms parts of the nasal septum, roof and lateral wall of the nose, and a considerable part of the medial wall of the orbital cavity. In addition, the ethmoid makes a small contribution to the floor of the anterior cranial fossa. The ethmoid bone can be divided into four parts, the perpendicular plate, the cribriform plate and two ethmoidal labyrinths. Important landmarks include: • Perpendicular plate • Cribriform plate • Crista galli. • Ala. • Ethmoid labyrinths • Medial (nasal) surface. • Orbital plate. • Superior nasal concha. • Middle nasal concha. • Anterior ethmoidal air cells. • Middle ethmoidal air cells. • Posterior ethmoidal air cells. Attachments The falx cerebri (slide) attaches to the posterior border of the crista galli. lamina cribrosa 1 crista galli 2 lamina perpendicularis 3 labyrinthi ethmoidales 4 cellulae ethmoidales anteriores et posteriores 5 lamina orbitalis 6 concha nasalis media 7 processus uncinatus 8 Inferior nasal concha Each inferior nasal concha consists of a curved plate of bone attached to the lateral wall of the nasal cavity. Each consists of inferior and superior borders, medial and lateral surfaces, and anterior and posterior ends. The superior border serves to attach the bone to the lateral wall of the nose, articulating with four different bones.

Nasal Septum Deviation and Inferior Nasal Concha Bone Hypertrophy in Class III Facial Deformity Desviación del Septum Nasal e Hipertrofia de la Concha Nasal Inferior en Deformidad Facial Clase III Javier Villa1; Leonardo Brito2,3; Marcelo Parra2,4; Pablo Navarro3; Márcio de Moraes6 & Sergio Olate2,4 VILLA, J.; BRITO, L.; PARRA, M.; NACARRO, P.; DE MORAES, M.; OLATE, S. Nasal septum deviation and inferior nasal concha bone hypertrophy in Class III facial deformity. Int. J. Morphol., 38(6):1544-1548, 2020. SUMMARY: The aim of this research was to analyze the morphology of the nasal septum and inferior nasal concha bone in class III facial deformities prior to orthodontic treatment in orthognathic surgery candidates. 40 subjects were included in this research. The inclusion criteria were an Angle class III, negative overjet and SNA angle less than 80º. Patients with facial asymmetry, facial trauma or who had undergone maxillofacial or ENT procedures were excluded. CBCT images were obtained for all the patients and the nasal septum deviation, morphology of inferior nasal concha bone and ostium of the maxillary sinus were analyzed and related to the complexity of the facial deformity expressed by the ANB angle and dental relations. The measurement was standardized by ICC and the data was analyzed using a chi square test and Spearman’s coefficient with a p value < 0.005 for statistical significance. Nasal septal deviation was observed in 77.5 %. The deviation angle was 13.28º (±4.68º) and the distance from the midline to the most deviated septum was 5.56 mm (±1.8 mm) with no statistical relation to the complexity of the facial deformity.

K. Agarwal & J. C. Passey MRIG, S.; AGARWAL; A. K. & PASSEY, J. C. Preoperative computed tomographic evaluation of inferior turbinate hypertrophy and its role in deciding surgical treatment modality in patients with deviated nasal septum. Int. J. Morphol., 27(2):503-506, 2009. SUMMARY: Deviated nasal septum is associated with compensatory hypertrophy of the inferior nasal concha on the contralateral side. In the past conventional septoplasty was done for the deviated septum, which would improve the patency on the side of deviation but would worsen it on the opposite side due to reallocation of the septum to the midline. The present study of 50 patients unfolds the anatomical composition of the inferior nasal concha based on the computed tomographic scan and help the otolaryngologist to determine whether to add turbinoplasty to standard septoplasty procedure or not. KEY WORDS: Deviated nasal septum; Inferior nasal concha; Contralateral hypertrophy. INTRODUCTION In patients with nasal obstruction and anterior septal deviation (Compensatory hypertrophy) and in allergic or va- deviation to one side, a common finding is a varying degree of somotor rhinitis (Lai & Corey, 1983; Li et al., 1998). concomitant or compensatory inferior nasal concha hypertrophy in the side of the nose opposite the major septal deviation.

    Pharynx, Larynx, Nasal cavity And Pterygopalatine Fossa Mikel H. Snow, Ph.D. Dental Anatomy [email protected] July 29, 2018 Pharynx Food & Air Passage Pharynx The pharynx is a skeletal muscle tube that opens anteriorly with 3 regions. The upper part communicates with nasal cavity, the middle communicates with oral cavity, and the lower communicates with the larynx. Nasal cavity Nasal Oral cavity cavity Larynx Air Nasopharynx: between Oral sphenoid sinus & uvula Food/ cavity Oropharynx: between uvula & epiglottis drink Laryngopharynx: between epiglottis & esophagus Esophagus Trachea The posterior and lateral walls are 3 skeletal muscles (constrictors) that propel food/liquid inferiorly to the esophagus. Constrictors innervated by CNX. Additional muscles elevate the pharynx (stylopharyngeus is external). Stylopharyngeus innervated by CNIX. Stylopharyngeus Superior constrictor Middle constrictor Inferior constrictor Two additional internal muscles we’ll get to later… Key relationship: Glossopharyngeal nerve wraps around stylopharyngeus muscle.
