In this paper, we sand out the presence of a strait or valve in the nostrils, and about it, it's specifically investigated it's anterior portion known in Plastic Surgery as internal nasal valve (INV). Characteristics, provision and relations of its individual components are discussed, specifically pointing out the ubique behavior of the valvular mucosal epithelium in connection with the triangular and quadrangular cartilage. We warn out the possibility of postoperative complications in case of improper surgical valvular treatment and we attach preparations and their corresponding drawings in order to make easy the understanding of the observed facts.
