Abstract

The bony skeleton of the nose is formed by the nasal bones and the nasal processes of the maxillae. The nasal septum is comprised of the septal cartilage anteriorly, the vomer posteroinferiorly, and the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone superiorly. The Kiesselbach’s/Little’s area is located in the anterior/inferior septum, and this is where branches of the sphenopalatine, greater palatine, and facial arteries anastomose; it is the most common site of epistaxis.
