FUNCTIONAL FEATURES OF THE NASAL AND NASAL CAVITIES WITH CONGENITAL MALFORMATIONS

Аннотация

Functional features of the nasal and nasal adjacent cavities were studied in 50 patients with congenital malformations. Clinical-functional, radiological, computed tomography, endoscopic and microbiological examinations were performed in these patients, and the results were statistically analyzed. In children with congenital palate and lip defect, in 100% of cases on the defective side, only in 54% of children with palate defect (complete, incomplete, submucosal) curvature of the nasal barrier to the opposite side of the defect was observed. In addition, 32 (64%) children were found to have enlarged compensatory nasal lobes.
