Abstract

With the purpose to examine age and vaiant anatomy of the nasal septum 10 macrospecimens of the human nasal septum at the first mature age were studied by means of morphological methods. The anterio-posterio size of the sptum in general was found to range between 64,0 to 78,0mm. Its largest vertical size does not exceed 48,0 mm. The mucous membrane is 0,8-1,0 mm thick. The epithelial layer is 36 and 54 mcm thick in the thickest and thinnest areas respectively. The mucous membrane is thick in the anterio-inferior part. Anterior-posterior size of the tetragonal lamina ranges from 24,0 to 38,0 mm. the vertical size close to the anterior end of the lamina is 21,0-30,0 mm, and closer to its posterios end – it is not larger than 16,0-20,0 mm. The osseous wall is 2,5-3,0 mm thick.
