    GROSS ANATOMY ASSIGNMENT NAME: OLORUNFEMI PEACE TOLUWALASE MATRIC NO: 17/MHS01/257 DEPT: MBBS COURSE: GROSS ANATOMY OF HEAD AND NECK QUESTION 1 Write an essay on the carvernous sinus. The cavernous sinuses are one of several drainage pathways for the brain that sits in the middle. In addition to receiving venous drainage from the brain, it also receives tributaries from parts of the face. STRUCTURE ➢ The cavernous sinuses are 1 cm wide cavities that extend a distance of 2 cm from the most posterior aspect of the orbit to the petrous part of the temporal bone. ➢ They are bilaterally paired collections of venous plexuses that sit on either side of the sphenoid bone. ➢ Although they are not truly trabeculated cavities like the corpora cavernosa of the penis, the numerous plexuses, however, give the cavities their characteristic sponge-like appearance. ➢ The cavernous sinus is roofed by an inner layer of dura matter that continues with the diaphragma sellae that covers the superior part of the pituitary gland. The roof of the sinus also has several other attachments. ➢ Anteriorly, it attaches to the anterior and middle clinoid processes, posteriorly it attaches to the tentorium (at its attachment to the posterior clinoid process). Part of the periosteum of the greater wing of the sphenoid bone forms the floor of the sinus. ➢ The body of the sphenoid acts as the medial wall of the sinus while the lateral wall is formed from the visceral part of the dura mater. CONTENTS The cavernous sinus contains the internal carotid artery and several cranial nerves. Abducens nerve (CN VI) traverses the sinus lateral to the internal carotid artery.

  • Surgical Interventions for Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy: a Comprehensive Review of Current Techniques and Technologies
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Review Surgical Interventions for Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy: A Comprehensive Review of Current Techniques and Technologies Baharudin Abdullah * and Sharanjeet Singh Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, School of Medical Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Kubang Kerian 16150, Kelantan, Malaysia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Surgical treatment of the inferior turbinates is required for hypertrophic inferior turbinates refractory to medical treatments. The main goal of surgical reduction of the inferior turbinate is to relieve the obstruction while preserving the function of the turbinate. There have been a variety of surgical techniques described and performed over the years. Irrespective of the techniques and technologies employed, the surgical techniques are classified into two types, the mucosal-sparing and non-mucosal-sparing, based on the preservation of the medial mucosa of the inferior turbinates. Although effective in relieving nasal block, the non-mucosal-sparing techniques have been associated with postoperative complications such as excessive bleeding, crusting, pain, and prolonged recovery period. These complications are avoided in the mucosal-sparing approach, rendering it the preferred option. Although widely performed, there is significant confusion and detachment between current practices and their basic objectives. This conflict may be explained by misperception over the myriad Citation: Abdullah, B.; Singh, S. Surgical Interventions for Inferior of available surgical techniques and misconception of the rationale in performing the turbinate Turbinate Hypertrophy: A reduction.

Various morphological pos- sibilities of turbinates were reported, such as bifidity of the inferior turbinate and extra middle turbinates, such as the secondary middle turbinate. During a retrospective cone beam computed tomography study of nasal turbinates in a patient we found previously unreported variants of the superior nasal turbina- tes. These had, bilaterally, ethmoidal and sphenoidal insertions. On the right side we found a bifid superior turbinate and on the left side we found a secondary superior turbinate located beneath the normal/principal one, in the superior nasal meatus. These demonstrate that if a variant morphology is possible for a certain turbinate, it could occur in any nasal turbinate but it has not been yet observed or reported.

  • The Respiratory System
    The Respiratory system DR VISHAL BANNE Respiratory System: Oxygen Delivery System . The respiratory system is the set of organs that allows a person to breathe and exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. The integrated system of organs involved in the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the environment and including the nasal passages, larynx, trachea, bronchial tubes, and lungs. The respiratory system performs two major tasks: . Exchanging air between the body and the outside environment known as external respiration. Bringing oxygen to the cells and removing carbon dioxide from them referred to as internal respiration. Nose Mouth Bronchial tubes Trachea Lung Diaphragm 1. Supplies the body with oxygen and disposes of carbon dioxide 2. Filters inspired air 3. Produces sound 4. Contains receptors for smell 5. Rids the body of some excess water and heat 6.

Since there is little date on the mentioned topic, we aimed to carry out the presented study to obtain a volumetric index showing the relation between the nasal cavity and concha. Material and methods: The volumes of the nasal cavity and concha were measured in 30 males and 30 females (18–40 years old) on computed tomo- graphy images using stereological methods. Results: The mean volumes of nasal cavity, concha nasalis media, and concha nasalis inferior were 5.95 ± 0.10 cm3, 0.56 ± 0.22 cm3, and 1.45 ± 0.68 cm3; 7.01 ± 0.18 cm3, 0.67 ± 0.31 cm3 and 1.59 ± 0.98 cm3 in females and males, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the volume of the nasal cavity and concha nasalis media (p < 0.05) between males and females, except for concha nasalis inferior (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Our results could provide volumetric indexes for the nasal cavity and concha, which could help the physician to manage surgical procedures related to the nasal cavity and concha.

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.

  • Respiratory System It Is Essentially System for Exchange of Gases Between Organism and Environment
    Respiratory system It is essentially system for exchange of gases between organism and environment. There are 2 types of respiration occurring within the body of higher animals. a) External respiration: involving the respiration organs and blood stream. b) Internal respiration: This is an exchange of gasses between blood stream and the body cells. The respiratory system consists of: 1. Conducting part: is that part through which the air passes to reach the respiratory part where actual exchange of O2 occur, It is consist of: a) External nose. b) Nasal cavity. c) Part of pharynx (nasopharynx). d) Larynx. e) Trachea. f) Within the lungs: - Bronchi. - Bronchioles. 2. Respiratory partwhichconsist of: a) Respiratory bronchioles. b) Alveolar duct. c) Alveolar sac. d) Pulmonary alveoli (alveolus). 3.

Preoperative Computed Tomographic Evaluation of Inferior Nasal Concha Hypertrophy and its Role in Deciding Surgical Treatment Modality in Patients with Deviated Nasal Septum Evaluación Preoperatoria con Tomografía Computada de la Hipertrofia de la Concha Nasal Inferior y su Rol en la Decisión de la Modalidad de Tratamiento Quirúrgico en Pacientes con Tabique Nasal Desviado Sumit Mrig; A. 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.

Golden ratio relationships have been shown in several plants in the nature and several organs and structures in the human body. The conchae, which form an important part of the nasal valve, have a special geometric significant in terms of providing turbulence to the laminar airflow that passes to the nasal cavity. Methods: This study made golden ratio calculations on 34 adults aged 20 to 45 years over computed tomography (CT) images. Totally, 34 volunteers (male, n ¼ 18 and female, n ¼ 16) with no nasal pathologies participated in the study. Using Adobe Photoshop, golden ratio calculations were made by applying the Fibonacci spiral on the images that best showed the conchae and meatuses on the CT images. Results: The intersection points of the spiral that was projected on the inferior and middle nasal concha were determined as S0, S1, S2, S3, and S4. The distances of S0-S1, S1-S2, S2-S3, and S3-S4 were measured. The concha measurements of the women showed significantly similar values to the golden ratio constant of *1.618 in the RS3/S4 and LS3/S4 measurements.
