Sarcoidosis Inferior Turbinate
The nose may be affected by a variety of granulomatous diseases. This is the left inferior turbinate in a patient with sarcoidosis. In these patients a diagnosis usually requires a biopsy.
Allergic Rhinitis Inferior Turbinate
One of the main functions of the nose is the trapping removal of particulate matter. It is therefore not surprising that many individuals develop allergies to a variety of inspired substances. The allergic...
Atrophic Rhinitis Crust

Atrophic Rhinitis [ozena]
Atrophic rhinitis is an idiopathic, chronic degenerative disorder that affects both the nasal mucous membranes and the turbinates. The turbinates atrophy and the nasal cavities become abnormally patent....
Post-Laryngectomy Atrophy of the Inferior Turbinate
Following a laryngectomy, there is no longer any flow of air through the nasal cavity, and the mucosa atrophies and develops a pale purple discolouration. Note the characteristic shrunken appearance of...
Vasomotor Rhinitis
Vasomotor rhinitis is a common cause of watery rhinorrhea which is currently believed to be caused by an imbalance in the autonomic nerve supply to the nasal mucous membranes. Vasomotor rhinitis is characterized...
Rhinitis Medicamentosa

Chronic Bacterial Rhinitis
The thick yellow crust covering the floor of this right nasal cavity overlies an area of local bacterial rhinitis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.. Note the inferior meatal antrostomy.
Chronic Bacterial Rhinitis
The mucosa of the nasal cavity may become chronically infected and colonized by bacteria. Note the yellow dry patches of exudate. A swab taken for culture and sensitivity is often of value.
Acute Viral Rhinitis Second Stage
If a bacterial superinfection develops, the mucus increases in amount and becomes coloured. As the acute phase resolves, mucosa gradually returns to normal, although for a time there is still an overproduction...

Acute Viral Rhinitis [URI]
During the prodromal phase of an acute upper respiratory infection [URI] the mucous membranes lining the nasal cavity are reddened, the nose is often abnormally patent and the mucus is frequently scanned...
