Vomer

Version 1

Abstract

The inferior margin of the vomer has been found in the intermaxillary suture, participating with the palatine bones in the formation of the hard palate. The vomer may be separated from the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid by a strip of cartilage from the nasal septum. The vomer may be fenestrated.
