The nasal septum It is the bony and cartilaginous structure that separates the two nasal cavities in the nose. It is made up of the ethmoid bone, the vomer bone, and the septal cartilage. The nasal septum has several important functions, such as directing and filtering airflow through the nostrils, humidifying inspired air, and helping to maintain the shape and structure of the nose. Deviated septum is a common condition that can cause respiratory and cosmetic problems, and can be corrected by a septoplasty Or a rhinoplasty.
