Abstract
Both the success and safety of intranasal functional endoscopic sinus surgery depend on the surgeon's knowledge of nasal and sinus anatomy, especially the lateral nasal wall. The purpose of this study was to determine measurements and angles between lateral nasal wall landmarks. Linear and angular measurements were made to determine the mean and range distances between selected structures. The results provide a guide for the surgeon.
