一个由从事畸形学领域工作的国际临床医生小组发起了用于描述人类形态学术语的标准化工作。目标是标准化这些术语并就其定义达成共识。通过这种方式，我们将增加人类表型描述的实用性，并促进患者之间研究结果的可靠比较。与畸形学和相关领域（例如发育生物学和分子遗传学）其他工作者的讨论将变得更加精确。在这里，我们介绍了鼻子和人中的解剖结构，并定义和说明了描述这些研究区域的主要特征的术语。 (C) 2009 年 Wiley-Liss 公司。
An international group of clinicians working in the field of dysmorphology has initiated the standardization of terms used to describe human morphology. The goals are to standardize these terms and reach consensus regarding their definitions. In this way, we will increase the utility of descriptions of the human phenotype and facilitate reliable comparisons of findings among patients. Discussions with other workers in dysmorphology and related fields, such as developmental biology and molecular genetics, will become more precise. Here we introduce the anatomy of the nose and philtrum, and define and illustrate the terms that describe the major characteristics of these study regions. (C) 2009 Wiley-Liss Inc.
