In other instances as in Fig, 34, fis-sion on the median line through the fronto-nasal process occurs,so that the maxilla is divided, with the mandible curved up- 298 Veterifiary Obstetrics ward between the two lateral halves, to constitute schistoceph-alus bifid us. In dealing with diseases of the septum nasi, its origin shouldalways be recalled and it should be remembered that, in someforms of disease, fluids may collect or new tissues may develop be-tween the two laminre, from which the septum takes its Fig. 35.
