What structures fill most of the nasal cavity?
To what do the attach?
- The dorsal, ventral, and ethmoidal conchae fill most of the nasal cavity.

What approach is this and what is it used access?

What is the preferred approach for the caudal pharyngeal region?
What is important about this approach with regards to planning closure?
Approach through soft palate on midline. Leave caudal border intact to help facilitate closure with less risk of dehiscence.
