Septum Essays

Deviated Septum Your septum is the wall of cartilage inside your nose that separates the hollow space (nasal cavity) between your nostrils. Normally the septum is straight. It divides the nasal cavity into two parts. A deviated septum means this wall is not in the center of the nasal cavity. A deviated septum can lead to stuffiness and other problems with the flow of air through your nose. It can also block your sinuses and keep them from draining properly. This can lead to repeated (chronic) sinus

Septoplasty Septoplasty, a surgical procedure done to straighten the septum (cartilage through the middle of the nose) in a nose, is a procedure done by an Otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat doctor) for both medical and physical appearance reasons. For medical reasons, Septoplasty is done on patients with a deviated or crooked septum to open their nasal canals for better olfaction (smell) and ultimately an enhancement in respiration (breathing). This procedure is oftentimes a successful procedure

During the surgery, the doctor will both close the hole in the heart’s chambers and reconstruct the valves that have been damaged. The hole is closed during the procedure by applying one or two patches to the septum. These patches will become a permanent fixture of the heart’s septum, as eventually, the lining of the heart will grow over the patches. The mitral valve is also reconstructed during surgery either by repairing it or, if needed, replacing it so that the valve will close tightly enough

get complete relief of symptoms. It is critical that treatment occur for a minimum of several weeks, and commonly patients may need to be treated for several months. Antifungal agents may need to be used for an even longer period. We commonly continue nonantibiotic treatment after stopping antibiotics. If patients don't get better, it is important for them to be evaluated for surgery. What is the place of acupuncture in sinusitis? A wide variety of non-traditional treatments have been used in treatment

position of the septum to the middle turbinates is noted. The middle turbinate attaches anteriorly to axilla of the middle turbinate and superiorly to the lateral nasal wall. It serves as an important landmark. the surgeon may have difficulty with access and visualization during ESS or in the postoperative period if the axilla is visualized. In cases of narrow nasal cavity, for improved endoscopic access and visualization, the septal mucosal flaps may be ‘‘retracted’’.Superior aspect of septum and septal

Chan, 2011). Septate Uterus Also known as a uterine septum, this is the most common type of congenital uterine malformation, whereby every 1 in 45 women is affected (Danielsson, 2014) (Y.Y. Chan, 2011). This type of uterus is divided by a septum; its extent can range from part of the way to or all the way to the cervix, therefore a woman can either have a partial/complete septate uterus. However, in most circumstances a woman who has a uterine septum will have a partial one (babycentre, 2013). A septate

Nose piercing may seem innovative but the custom has been around for almost four thousand years. It is a process which a needle punctured the nasal septum,the nostril, or nasal bridge to create an opening for the placement of a jewelry. This practice is performed as a representation or for beauty purposes. Originated in the Middle East, moving to India in the 1500s and reaching the Western civilization by the 20th century. According to the Book of Genesis, Isaac, the son of Abraham gave Rebekah

1. Is W. H. exhibiting signs consistent with a cocaine substance use disorder as described in the DSM-V? a. If so, describe the symptoms she is exhibiting. Yes, W.H is exhibiting signs consistent with cocaine abuse. She has been using greater amounts of cocaine over a longer time period than intended. She also has a persistent desire to decrease use since she sold her watch out of desperation to buy more crack. Once W.H started experiencing signs of withdrawal such as a crash she begins to starts

bigger heart. Moreover, it is the only involuntary striated muscle that is consisting of four chambers: two upper chambers “atria” and two lower one “ventricles”, where the right side of the heart is separated from the left side by an inter-ventricular septum, and they are connected by pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins. Although the human heart is the first organ that starts development, it takes several stages to be formed (figure1): • First stage: Formation of the primitive heart tube: That is

•Then travels to the bachmann’s bundle and the internodal pathways... •The internodal pathways then join together at the atrioventricular node... •As the bundle of his goes down the septum (the wall that divides the two sides of the heart) • it splits into the left and right bundle branch... •Which then produces the terminal purkinje fibres which travel up to the left and right ventricles (lower chamber of the heart) Structure

the muscle needs the ability to constantly contract without becoming weak or tired and to maintain this the muscle needs a continuous supply of oxygenated blood from the coronary arteries. The left and right side of the heart is divided by the septum, the septum also does not allow oxygenated and deoxygenated blood to mix and also helps support the

Respiration consists of transportation of oxygen from the atmosphere to the body tissues and the release and carriage of carbon dioxide formed in the tissues to the atmosphere. The human respiratory system is a series of organs responsible for taking in oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. We can list the primary organs of the respiratory system as nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lungs which carry out this exchange of gases as we breathe. During inspiration air passes through respiratory

nasal structures. The shaping of the external nose structures include the nasal septum, which holds such a central tent pole especially in the lower part of the nose, the pyramidal structure with. To gain access to this shaping structures, the mucosa or the skin of the muzzle must be replaced. In general, the access cuts are invisible in the nasal vestibule, from where you can get a good overview of the nasal septum, the cartilage of the nose and the bones of the nasal

interventricular groove. This artery also sends a branch to the moderator band and the anterior papillary muscle of the tricuspid valve (right ventricle), which is reasonable that the moderator is part of the septomarginal trabeculae of the interventricular septum; this artery is often called moderator artery (Laizzo,

DISCUSSION Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure to reshape the nose. It’s a surgical challenge for the operating surgeon, because every patient has different nasal anatomy and there is no single ideal nose for every face. Every patient has different expectations from the surgery. Moreover, the choice of techniques utilized this procedure and presence of difficulty in foreseeing the long term outcomes of the procedure. Outcome assessment is an integral part of any surgical intervention, especially

Vesalius had observed, by dissection, that there were no pores in the septum of the heart. This meant that direct transfer of blood was not possible. Harvey’s explanation for how blood was transferred from the right ventricle to the left ventricle was that it went through the lungs via the pulmonary arteries and returned through

surgery as mentioned above. Tomography of the paranasal sinuses is indicated to evaluate the nasal septum and the presence of concomitant paranasal sinus disease9. We assessed the size of perforations and the size of the flap available preoperatively using Plain CT-scan of Nose and Paranasal sinuses with a combination of axial and coronal sections. This gave us a clear picture of the defect in the nasal septum along with accurate information of the availability of nasoseptal flap. Various surgical procedures

obsessively revered and imitated African-American blues and rock musicians. This type of musical inspiration isn’t inherently bad—it’s practically unavoidable (Zimmerman 2014).” Are African American’s appropriating African Culture? During, the British colonization of American they were met with a number of conflicts. Bacon’s Rebellion in 1676 impacted the demand for slave labor on plantations this resulted in the birth of African slavery. Slavery was the economic foundations in the development of

ethmoid infundibulum. In cases where hypoplastic maxillary sinuses are present, lateral elevation of the uncinate process until it fuses with the medial orbital wall can impede the integrity of the orbit. Congenital or traumatic deviation of the nasal septum can result in compression of the middle meatus and subsequent obstruction of the drainage pathway. Complications of these variations arise when they obstruct the drainage pathway of the respective paranasal sinuses. Pneumatization of respective areas

INTRODUCTION Nasal lobular haemangioma is a rare benign tumour of the Sino nasal tract 1. The exact aetiology of this condition is unknown. Though Head and Neck is the most common location of these tumours, involvement of Sino nasal tract is very rare. The most common sites of these tumours are gingiva, lips and tongue. These are rapidly growing hyper vascular lesions. The clinical features, radiological features and pathological findings are described in Manuscript Click here to download Manuscript:
