  1. ANATOMY OF NOSE ANDPARANASAL SINUSES By assisstant lecture/ Sara mostafa

  2. ANATOMY OF NOSEEXTERNAL NOSE • External nose is shaped like a pyramid with its root up and base directed downwards. *root *tip *dorsum nasi *bridge of the nose *alae *clomella • Osteocartilagenous framework: Upper 1/3rd - bony Lower 2/3rd – cartilagenous

  3. ANATOMY OF NOSEEXTERNAL NOSE • Bony framework • Nasal bones • Nasal processes of frontal bone • Frontal processes of maxilla • Cartilagenous framework • Upper lateral cartilages • Lower lateral cartilages • Alar cartilages • Septal cartilage
