The mucosa which covers the ethmoid bone of pigs and which represents most of the olfactory region is vascularized by arteries of intracranial and extracranial origin. Blood is conducted to most of the mucosa of the olfactory region, i.e. the mesethmoid and ethmoturbinates by branches of arteria ethomoidea interna, while branches of the arteria sphaenopalatinae bring blood only to a smaller part of the mucosa of the oroventral and orodorsal parts. Branches of both arterial regions anastomose very intimately.
