Experiments in growing rabbits showed the great importance of the nasal septum for the postnatal growth of the facial skeleton. The influence of surgical procedures on the morphogenetic function of the nasal septum was investigated. The effects of unilateral and bilateral elevation of the mucoperichondrium and of submucous resection of various parts of the septal cartilage on the growth of the nose and upper jaw are demonstrated.
对生长中的兔子进行的实验表明，鼻中隔对于面部骨骼的出生后生长极为重要。研究了外科手术对鼻中隔形态发生功能的影响。展示了鼻中隔软骨膜的单侧和双侧抬高以及鼻中隔软骨不同部位的黏膜下切除术对鼻子和上颌生长的影响。
