The nasal septum divides the nose into two parts, creating the left and right nasal passages. This structure is primarily composed of cartilage and bone, specifically the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone and the vomer bone. The septum plays a crucial role in supporting the nose and regulating airflow through the nasal cavities. Anomalies in the septum, such as a deviated septum, can affect breathing and sinus function.
