AIR SINUSES FOOD III. PALATE IV. PALATINE TONSILS TRACHEA ESOPHAGUS
Problem: Nasal Cavity and Oral Cavity open to Pharynx; Path of air crosses path of food intake; Permits breathing when chewing Solution: Soft Palate functions as flap valve Clinical: Burrito story; Other - sinus infections, tonsillitis NASAL CAVITY
Upper most part of Ant. respiratory system Opening = Anterior Functions: Nares
1) Modifies air – warms, humidifies and filters 2) Sense smell – Post opening = hunt animals, enjoy Posterior Nares flowers, avoid = Choanae noxious odors, (ko'-an-ay) allure (greek for of perfume funnels) A. NASAL CARTILAGES
SEPTAL SEPTAL CARTILAGE CARTILAGE
LATERAL NASAL CARTILAGES ALAR CARTILAGES MIDLINE = VIEW OF NASAL SEPTUM
Nasal Cartilages - 1) Septal cartilage with fused Lateral Nasal Cartilages 2) Alar cartilages - surround medial side of nostrils Function of Cartilages - flexible, opening inferiorly directs inhalation toward mouth (smell what you eat) CORONAL CT of INTERIOR OF NASAL CAVITY

PARANASAL AIR SINUSES
1) Air filled extensions of Nasal Cavity 2) All Paired - Develop After birth - Lined by mucous membrane - Serve to lighten bones 3) A mistake of evolution? - If filled bones with spongy (cancellous) bone, would not get infected PARANASAL AIR SINUSES VIEW: FLOOR OF ANT. CRAN. FOSSA All usually paired WITH BONE REMOVED NOSE A. Frontal - separate by septum, variable size
C. Ethmoid- also called air cells (Ant., Mid., Post.)

Cute - correlated with undeveloped maxillary sinus (also teeth not erupted)? PARANASAL AIR SINUSES
D. Maxillary Sinus - Largest - Occupies entire Body of Maxilla - Roof = Floor of Orbit - Nasal Cavity is medial to sinus

Lesson - Don’t talk when chewing and swallowing DEATH DUE TO CHOKING: HIGH PREVALENCE IN ELDERLY
Choking is the fourth leading cause of unintentional injury death.
>65: Unintentional injury death VI. PALATINE TONSILS
PHARYNGEAL Palatine Tonsil TONSIL = ADENOIDS
Palatine Tonsil - lymphoid tissue In oropharynx between Palatoglossal and Palatopharyngeal Tonsillectomy- Arches incise mucosa to remove Palatine tonsil Palatine tonsil TONSILLITIS = inflammation of (Palatine) tonsils
Cause - bacterial (Streptococcus) or viral infection
