Trauma to the Olfactory Nerves

SKU: C05006

This exhibit depicts permanent damage to the olfactory nerves due to head trauma. Normal olfactory nerves travel and enter the nasal cavity through perforations in the cribriform plate, providing a sense of smell. Head trauma resulting in subdural hemorrhaging and edema causes the olfactory nerves to be severed. This leads to a permanent decrease in the sense of smell, also known as hyposmia.
