Both the outer and inner nose as well as the position of the parietal bones of 972 patients at an age of 3 to 82, were examined giving evidence of the configuration of the infant's head at birth and thereby of the "severity" of the birth. In comparison with the sectio-patients the configuration of the infant's head in the birth canal reveals statistically recorded deformations of the outer and inner nose with an obstruction of the nasal breathing in 20% of the patients examined. The degree of the configuration has a definite influence on the degree of the nose deformation. The adjustment of the rotary direction of the infant's head in the 1st and 2nd vertex presentation determines the direction of the nose deformation. The demand of many authors for an immediate rhinological examination and corrections in the newborn child, for instance on the septum, to be performed still in the obstetrical department, must due to our own examinations be advocated.
对972名年龄在3岁至82岁的患者的外鼻、内鼻以及顶骨位置进行了检查，以证明婴儿出生时头部的形态，从而证明出生的“严重程度”。与剖腹产患者相比，婴儿头部在产道中的形态显示，在20%的受检患者中，外鼻和内鼻存在统计学记录的变形，伴有鼻呼吸阻塞。形态程度对鼻子变形程度有明确影响。婴儿头部在第一和第二顶点位时旋转方向的调整决定了鼻子变形的方向。许多作者要求在产科对新生儿立即进行鼻科检查并进行矫正，例如对鼻中隔进行矫正，基于我们自己的检查结果，这一要求值得提倡。
