Abstract
This is a review of the innervation of the midface and nose as a guide to anesthesia in this region. Through an understanding of the embryol ogic development, better predictions of nerve coverage are possible. T he variables encountered during surgery can be appreciated, and in a p ractical sense this leads to anesthetic approaches that allow comforta ble and controlled surgery in this area.
