Turbinal
(gcide) | Turbinal \Tur"bi*nal\, a. [L. turbo, turben, -inis, a top,
whirl.] (Anat.)
Rolled in a spiral; scroll-like; turbinate; -- applied to the
thin, plicated, bony or cartilaginous plates which support
the olfactory and mucous membranes of the nasal chambers.
[1913 Webster]
Note: There are usually several of these plates in each nasal
chamber. The upper ones, connected directly with the
ethmoid bone, are called ethmoturbinals, and the
lower, connected with the maxillae,
maxillo-turbinals. Incurved portions of the wall of
the nasal chamber are sometimes called
pseudoturbinals, to distinguish them from the true
turbinals which are free outgrowths into the chambers.
