ABSTRACT
Figure 2.1 A mild superior right septal deviation (short arrow) not obstructing the access to a paradoxical middle turbinate (long arrow)
Figure 2.2 A mild left superior septal deviation, a non-significant and common observation
-cartilaginous sharp spur (short arrow) touching the inferior turbinate (long arrow). The arrowhead points to the middle turbinate
Figure 2.4 A groove (short arrow) on the right side, between the septal cartilage (arrowhead) and the vomer (long arrow) of the same subject shown in Figure 2.3
Figure 2.6 A mucosal groove seen on the left posterior part of the septum
Figure 2.7 A longer groove seen on the right side of the septum (short arrows). The mucosal swelling seen above it (long arrow) resembles a turbinate. The arrowhead points to the middle turbinate
Figure 2.8 A CT scan of a normal subject with two small septal turbinates on each side
the vomer
Figure 2.10 The CT scan of the subject in Figure 2.9 showing the mucosal swellings on both sides
Figure 2.11 A right secondary septal turbinate that developed a couple of months after a middle turbinectomy
Figure 2.12 A patient who had had bilateral inferior turbinectomies years before (arrows). Note the absence of any septal turbinate
Figure 2.13 A mild right septal deviation in a normal subject (short arrow). Note the circular candy (long arrow) that the patient kept in her mouth while being scanned!
