2019, Otolaryngologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :The inferior turbinates play a key role in respiratory function and nasal physiology. Not only do they humidify, warm, and cleanse the air that is inspired through the nose, but also they contribute to inspiratory resistance, nasal defense system, and mucociliary transport.16 Nasal obstruction often is caused by hypertrophic inferior turbinates, which may be caused by allergic or nonallergic rhinitis.17
