A Survey for Transverse Nasal Groove
Indian Journal of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology
|January 28, 2017
Summary
A study identified characteristic lesions in 180 out of 3000 subjects with transverse nasal groove. These lesions, common in patients aged 20-30, included hair follicles, greasy scales, and comedones.
Area of Science:
- Dermatology
- Clinical Research
Background:
- Transverse nasal groove is a common dermatological finding.
- Understanding its characteristic lesions is important for diagnosis and management.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe the typical lesions associated with transverse nasal groove.
- To determine the prevalence and demographic characteristics of affected individuals.
Main Methods:
- Survey of 3000 consecutive subjects.
- Clinical examination to identify characteristic lesions of transverse nasal groove.
- Data collection on patient age, family history, and associated dermatological conditions.
Main Results:
- 180 subjects (6%) presented with characteristic transverse nasal groove lesions.
- Lesions included patulous hair follicles, greasy scales, and black comedones.
- The majority of affected patients were between 20 and 30 years old, with a family occurrence noted in only 7%.
Conclusions:
- Transverse nasal groove exhibits specific lesions, particularly in younger adults.
- Associated conditions include seborrheic dermatitis, pityriasis versicolor, and acne vulgaris.

01:24Nose and Nasal Cavity
13.9K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
7.7K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

01:14Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
8.4K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

01:21Deformations in a Transverse Cross Section

When a material is subjected to uniaxial stress, it elongates or contracts in the direction of the applied force, and also undergoes changes in the perpendicular directions. This behavior is crucial for understanding how materials behave under stress and is governed by mechanical properties such as Poisson's ratio v, which measures the ratio of transverse strain to axial strain.
As the material stretches, it expands or contracts in orthogonal directions to the load. This phenomenon varies...

1.8K
Thoracentesis(Thoracocentesis), commonly known as pleural tap, is a medical procedure where a 22 gauge needle is inserted into the pleural space, the area between the lung and chest wall. This procedure is commonly performed to diagnose or treat various respiratory disorders.
Description
Excess pleural fluid or air may accumulate in some respiratory disorders in the thoracic cavity. To treat pleural effusion, a physician conducts thoracentesis by carefully piercing the chest wall and entering...
