2. NOSE - ANATOMY
DEVELOPMENT
Nose develops from frontonasal process
which grows between primitive forebrain
and the stomodaeum.
Frontonasal process gets divided into
median nasal process and two lateral
process.
Primitive nasal cavities are closed at their
posterior ends by bucconasal membrane
which ruptures and forms choanae.
Clinical significance: choanal atresia
3. Olfactory placodes on the frontonasal
process become depressed to form
olfactory pits which later form nasal
cavity.
DEVELOPMENT
5. Bony & Cartilaginous Anatomy of
nose
Osteocartilagenous framework:
Upper 1/3rd - bony
Lower 2/3rd – cartilagenous
Bony framework
a) Nasal bones
b) Nasal processes of frontal bone
c) Frontal processes of maxilla
6. Cartilages of the external nose and
columella
The nasal cartilages are composed of
hyaline cartilage which may be ossified.
The upper cartilages are triangular flat
expansions lying inferior to the nasal
bones and are overlapped by them, by the
adjacent frontal processes of the maxillae
and by the lower lateral cartilages.
7. The lower lateral cartilage forms lower
one third of nose.
Having medial and lateral crus meet at
the tip of the nose.
Two medial crura attached in the
midline and form columella.
The groove between the upper and
lower lateral cartilages is known as the
limen nasi, which is the site of
intercartilaginous incisions.
8. Bony nasal septum
Upper one third is bony; mainly by 2
nasal bones with some contributions by
nasal spine of frontal bone and fronto-
nasal process of maxilla.
Nasal bone:
Wedge shaped convex and smooth outer
surface ; concave and roughened inner
surface
United in midline with each other
superiorly attached to nasal frontal
suture, laterally with frontal process of
maxilla.

Nasal skin: skin over nasal bone and upper lateral
cartilage is thin and freely mobile while that on
alar cartilages is thick and adherent and
contains sebaceous glands

16. ANATOMY OF NOSE
INTERNAL NOSE
Nasal septum consists of three parts
a) Membranous septum (lies between
columella and caudal border of septal
cartilage)
b) Septum proper: consists of
osteocartilagenous framework covered
with nasal mucous membrane
17. ANATOMY OF NOSE
INTERNAL NOSE

SEPTUM Little’s area: Situated in the antero-inferior
part of nasal septum just above the
vestibule. Four arteries-anterior
ethmoidal, septal branch of superior
labial, septal branch of sphenopalatine
and greater palatine anastamose here to
form kiesselbach’s plexus.
Woodruff’s area: Venous plexus situated
in the posterior aspect of nasal septum.
22. The anterior ethmoidal branch of the
nasociliary nerve and a smaller
anteroinferior portion receives a branch
from the anterior superior alveolar nerve.

a small supply from the nerve to the
pterygoid canal and a posterior inferior
nasal branchof the anterior palatine
nerve.

projections called turbinates or
conchae-superior (part of ethmoid),
middle (part of ethmoid), inferior
(separate bone).
sometimes a fourth turbinate concha
suprema may also be present.
Below and lateral to each turbinate is a
corresponding meatus.
27. Attachments- inferior & middle turbinates
Inferior turbinate:
having maxillary process which articulates with the
inferior margin of maxillary hiatus.
Also articulates with ethmoid, palatine and lacrimal
bone completing the medial wall of naso-lacrimal
duct.
Medial turbinate:

the fronto-nasal process of maxilla and cribriform
plate.
Then it turns it turns laterally and attached in
coronal plane in the lamina papyracea. (This is
called basal lamella or ground lamella).
Most posterior attachment in the horizontal plane

its anterior part.
Middle meatus- consists of bulla
ethmoidalis, hiatus semilunaris,

sinuses open into it.

above the superior meatus. Sphenoidal
sinus opens into it.
30. OSTEOMEATAL COMPLEX
The middle meatus is the space below
and lateral to the middle turbinate, and
is often functionally referred to as the
osteomeatal complex. It contains the
drainage pathways for the anterior
ethmoids, the maxillary and the frontal
sinuses.

most commonly involved in the

floor and medial wall of infundibulum is
formed by the uncinate process.
It is approximately 3 to 4 mm wide and
1.5 to 2 cm in length.

36. Ethmoidal Bulla
the largest anterior ethmoidal cell
alternative nomenclature of torus
lateralis (lateral bulge).
Sometimes a cleft is encountered
between the posterior wall of the bulla
and the basal lamella of the middle
turbinate, the retrobullar recess. The
space between it and the ethmoidal roof
is called the suprabullar recess).
37. THE AGGER NASI
It is the most anterior part of the
ethmoid.
It is represented by a small crest or
mound on the lateral wall just anterior
to the attachment of the middle
turbinate.
It may be pneumatized.
38. Frontal recess
Found in the most antero superior part
of the middle meatus.
The frontal recess may be defined as
follows:
• medial: middle turbinate;
• lateral: lamina papyracea, lacrimal
bone;
• superior: skull base;
• inferior: dependent upon the attachment
of the uncinate process;
• pneumatization of agger nasi cells.

Netter, Frank H., Atlas of Human Anatomy. Ciba-Geigy Corporation, Summit, N.J. 1993. Plate 35.
42. Roof of the ethmoid comlex
Roof formed by the cribriform plate of
the ethmoid separtes the nose from
anterior cranial fossa.
Cribriform plate shows horizontal
medial lamella and oblique or vertical
lateral lamella.
Lateral lamella articulates with the
frontal bone.
Thus the ethmoid fovea is formed
medially by the cribriform plate and
laterally by the frontal bone.
43. The length of the latral lamella and
depth of the olfactory fossa are
classified by kero and Kainz into three
types-
Type I- 1-3 mm
Type II- 4-7 mm
Type III- 8-17 mm

44. Anterior ethmoidal artery
In nasal cavity cavity it divides into ant and post nasal branches
Reaches the nasal cavity through cribro ethmoidal foramen
Enters intracranially into the olfactory fossa through lateral lamella of
lamina cribrosa
Crosses the anterior ethmoid at the level of roof
Through ant ethmoidal foramen enter ant ethmoid complex
Passes between sup oblique and medial rectus muscle
Arises from the ophthalmic artery in the orbit
45. Blood Supply to the Nasal
Cavity From branches of the maxillary artery, one
of the terminal branches of the external
carotid artery.
The most important branch is the
sphenopalatine artery.
The sphenopalatine artery anastomoses
with the septal branch of the superior labial
branch of the facial artery in the region of
the vestibule.
The submucous venous plexus is drained
by veins that accompany the arteries.
