Abstract
The nasal septum divides the nasal cavity in the midline sagittal plane from the nostrils to the choana. The lateral nasal wall has the inferior, middle, superior, and supreme turbinates. In this chapter we will discuss the embryology, anatomy, physiology and pathology of the nasal septum and the turbinates.
