Nasal turbinates play an important role in nasal physiology. These functions include the important function of particle filtration by the mucocilliary system. Many nasal mucosal diseases, such as rhinitis and rhinosinusitis, are directly related with structural alterations of the mucosal lining of the turbinates.
To study the distribution pattern of the glandular epithelium of the lamina propria in the normal lower nasal turbinate mucosa of the anterior, medium and posterior portions.
A prospective study in which small linear fragment of the lower nasal turbinate was removed from ten patients undergoing aesthetic nose surgery. The slides were hematoxilin-eosin stained, examined histologically and photographed. Glandular epithelium was delimited individually, the total area of the lamina propria on the anterior, medium and posterior portions of nasal turbinates was calculated (microm2).
There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution pattern of the glandular epithelium of the lamina propria.
This study showed no predominance of glandular epithelium distribution in anterior and posterior portions of lower nasal turbinates in normal subjects.
鼻甲骨在鼻腔生理中起着重要作用。这些功能包括黏液纤毛系统对颗粒的重要过滤功能。许多鼻黏膜疾病，如鼻炎和鼻窦炎，与鼻甲骨黏膜衬里的结构改变直接相关。
研究正常下鼻甲前、中、后三个部位固有层的腺上皮分布模式。
对 10 例行美容鼻整形术的患者，从前、中、后三个部位取下下鼻甲的线性小碎片进行前瞻性研究。对切片进行苏木精-伊红染色，进行组织学检查和拍照。单独划定腺上皮，计算下鼻甲前、中、后三个部位固有层的总面积（μm2）。
固有层的腺上皮分布模式无统计学差异。
本研究表明，在正常受试者中，下鼻甲前、后部位的腺上皮分布没有优势。
