AB Blood  supply  to  the  nose  arises  from  the  internal  and  external  carotid  artery  systems.  The  external  carotid  provides  arterial  flow  by  way  of  the  facial  and  internal  maxillary  arteries.  The  facial  artery  forms  the  superior  labial  artery,  supplying  the  septum  and  nasal  alae.  The  internal  maxillary  artery  terminates  in  five  branches,  three  of  which  supply  the  nasal  cavity:  the  sphenopalatine,  pharyngeal,  and  greater  palatine  branches.  The  internal  carotid  artery  supplies  the  nose  via  terminal  branches  of  the  ophthalmic  artery  and  the  anterior  and  posterior  ethmoid  arteries.
