Midsagittal skull (septum removed) (English)

With nasal septum removed, a better view on the lateral wall of the nasal cavity is possible. The wall shows three bony projections called the superior, middle and inferior nasal conchae (turbinates). The superior and middle conchae are parts of the ethmoid bone, while the inferior nasal concha is an individual bone that attaches to the ethmoid, maxilla, lacrimal and palatine bones.
