EMBRYOLOGY• Facial development takes place between 4 – 8 weeks of intra
uterine life• Face develops from 5 facial swellingsthat surround the
Primitive mouth by the end of 4th week Central unpaired frontonasal process Pair of maxillary process Pair of mandibular process

At 5th week thickening appear in fronto nasal process called nasal placodesAt 6th week nasal placode invaginates to form nasal pits6th and 7th week maxillary process increase in size to grow mediallyThey fuse with medial nasal process & then with lateral nasal process This separates nasal pits from stomadeum
![Page 4: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Medial nasal process fuse with eachother to form inter maxillary processWhich forms central bridge of nose and the central portion of upper lip philtrumInter maxillary process grows backward to form nasal septumlateral nasal process enlarge to form alae, grow backward to form lateral nasal wall, which show ant post elevation to form turbinates.

Para nasal air sinuses
• At birth the volume of cranial vault is 7 times that of facial skeleton
• This ratio decreases during infancy and childhood, as a result of growth of 4 pairs of PNS& development of teeth
• Sinuses develop from invaginations of nasal cavity that extend into the surrounding bone
• Maxillary and ethmoidal sinus develop in utero during 3rd and 5th fetal months

Functions of Nose and PNS
1.Respiration• Heat exchange• Humidification• Filtration• Nasal resistance• Nasal fluids & ciliary functions• Nasal neurovascular reflex• Voice modification2. Olfaction • Two neurone peripheral pathway• Trigeminal input• Olfaction
![Page 56: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Heat exchange • Temperature of inspired air vary from -50 –
50 degree C.• By the process of thermoregulation, latent
heat of evaporation, direction of flow of blood, heat exchange occurs
• Gas in the nose, arterial blood 2 fluids, that are in thermal, but not with direct contact
![Page 57: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Humidification
• Vaporization cools the surface and 10% body heat is lost this way• Inspiration • Energy required for 2 function raising temperature of inspired air, latent
heat of evaporation• Despite variation in temperature of inspired air, air in post nasal space is
31degree C , 95% saturated• Expiration• Expired air at back of nose is slightly below body core temperature• As temperature drops along the nose , some water condenses to mucosa• Water production• Water comes from serous glands• Capillary leakage occurs during inflamation- additional water comes from
expiredair, NLD, oral cavity
![Page 58: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Filtration • Airflow pattern• Inspiration• directed upwards and backwards mainly
over ant part of inferior turbinate• Then splits to two below and over middle
turbinate, rejoining post choana• Expiration• lasts longer• More turbulent
![Page 59: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Nasal resistance • Difference exist between races• Nose accounts for upto half the total airway resistance• Resistance made of • 1. bone,cartilage,attached muscles• 2.variable , the mucosa• Nasal resistance is high in infants

Nasal fluids and ciliary functions• Nasal secretions 2 elements mucus &
water• Composition of mucus• Water & ions• Glycoproteins• Enzymes• Circulatory proteins• Proteins• Imunoglobulins• cells
![Page 61: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Nasal immune system
• Surface propertiesMechanical
Physical characteristics of mucus• Innate immunity
Bacteriocidal activity in mucusProteins
cellular component• Acquired immunityIg A, IgM, IgE & IgG
LymphocytesPrimed macrophages
• Distant sitesAdenoids , LN, Spleen

Reflexes • Axon reflexes• Substance p vasodilator transmits anti dromic reflex• Initiated by mechanical irritation or histamine release• This amplifies the response• Nasopulmonary reflexes• Increasing airflow through one nose cause increased
ventilation on the homolateral lung• Blowing air through the nose causes bronchiole muscle to
relax on the same side and increases respiratory activity
![Page 63: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Reflexes from nasal stimuli • Chemical, temperature change and physical stimuli cause
widespread cardiovascular and respiratory responses• Response ranges from sneezing to cardio respiratory arrest• Sneezing- change in respiratory rate with closure of larynx and
a variable cardiovascular response occurs• Sensory stimulation accompanied by lower cardiac output• Modification of submersion reflex
![Page 64: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Nose and the voice• Nose adds quality by allowing air to
escape• Rhinolalaia clausa too little air escapes• Rhinolalia aperta too much escapes
![Page 65: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Olfaction
• Stimulus – odours react with lipid bilayer of receptor cells at specific sites, causes k+ & cl – to flow out and depolarize cell
• Receptors – G protein coupled receptorsreact with specific adenyl cyclase
• Discrimination – man prefers to detect pleasantness of an odour

Olfaction
![Page 67: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Trigeminal input• Most smell independent of trigeminal
nerve, but at high concentrations irritation occurs
• Patient who are anosmic notice only sweet,sour,salt & bitter & irritation.
• Irritation contributes to nature of smell
![Page 68: Anatomy of lateral wall of nose & pns ajay m](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062502/58ab10bf1a28ab70038b5be7/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Olfaction areas of behaviour• Helps in recognizing food types & initiation
of digestion• Sexual behaviour• Territorial markings• Perception decreases with age and
neurodegenerative diseases• Olfaction is fully developed at birth, but
recognition and learning come late, probably after the age of 2 years

Physiological functions of sinuses• Vocal resonance• Dimnuition of auditory feedback• Air conditioning• Pressure damper• Reduction of skull weight• Floatation of skull in water• Mechanical rigidity• Heat insultation
