Histology of the mucous membranes of the lateral nasal wall.
The preliminary results of investigating the lateral nasal wall are presented. In this study only three strips of mucosa are analysed from histological point of view using serial sections. One strip corresponded to the plane of lateral osteotomy, the second crossed the middle of turbinates and the third corresponded to the vestibular area. The accurate number and distribution of vascular and glandular elements were determined by help of Visopan and micro-photographs.
