This chapter provides a detailed description of the macro- and microscopic anatomy of the murine nose, sinuses, larynx, and pharynx, and it highlights similarities and differences in structure and function between mice and humans. For all mammalian species, the nose serves as the portal of entry...

[22]In addition metastasis to the nose are possible, and thus patients should be routinely assessed and monitored for such findings.[23]. The connection between the nasal cavity and pharynx and larynx acts as a route for both viral and bacterial pathogens and can lead to symptoms such as ...
Three bony ridges project from the outer wall of each nasal cavity and partially divide the cavity into three air passages. At the back of the nose these passages lead into the pharynx. The passages also are connected by openings with the paranasal sinuses. One of the functions of the nose...

Abstract The upper respiratory passages include the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx and trachea. Since part of the pharynx is common to both the alimentary and respiratory passages, there must be a mechanism which can prevent food entering the air passages. This mechanism is provided by the upper ...
divided by the septum into two nasal cavities that extend from the nostrils to thepharynx. The mucous membrane that lines the nasal cavities is covered with fine hairs known as cilia that help to filter dust and impurities from the air before it reaches the lungs; the air is also moistened...
The pharynx should be packed with a mouth pack. This can be a swab or length of bandage to prevent aspiration of blood into the trachea and lungs. After completion of the surgery, the pharynx should be carefully inspected and suctioned if necessary after removal of the mouth pack. Recovery...
