摘要

人犁鼻器(VNO)是位于鼻中隔前下侧的一个结构。它主要在啮齿类动物中被描述并被发现为辅助嗅觉系统的一部分。它已经被证明是由专门的嗅觉感觉细胞组成的，它的功能是感知信息素。尽管已有大量关于人体VNO的文献，但对其在人体中的持续性和功能性却鲜有共识。在常规鼻腔解剖中，我们在六具新鲜冷冻尸体中的一具(17%)发现了单侧犁鼻窝，并从形态学上描述了这种罕见结构的位置和结构。本研究总结了关于VNO的文献，并描述了其结构和功能的发现。

Is Human Vomeronasal Organ A Myth or A Neglected Structure?

The human vomeronasal organ (VNO) is a structure situated under the anteroinferior side of the nasal septum. It is mainly described in the rodents and found as a part of the accessory olfactory system. It has been shown to consist of specialized olfactory sensory cells, which function in perception of pheromones. With a large number of literature on the human VNO, there is little concensus of its persistence and functionality in human. During a routine dissection of nasal cavity, we recognized a one-sided vomeronasal pit in one of the six fresh-frozen cadavers (17 %) and described the position and structure of this rare structure morphologically. The present study summarizes the literature about the VNO and describes its structural and functional findings.
