Popis: 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.
