The frontonasal duct passes inferior-ward [5] to open either [3] into the middle nasal meatus at the anterior end of [3] the ethmoidal infundibulum, [3] [5] [2] or into the anterior ethmoidal air cells (which then in turn drain into the nasal cavity). [3] The duct is lined by mucous membrane. [citation needed]
This meatus is short, lies above and extends from the middle part of the middle concha below. From behind, the sphenopalatine foramen opens into the cavity of the superior meatus and the meatus communicates with the posterior ethmoidal cells. Above and at the back of the superior concha is the sphenoethmoidal recess which the sphenoidal sinus ...
The middle ethmoidal cells open into the central part of this meatus, and a sinuous passage, termed the infundibulum, extends upward and forward through the labyrinth and communicates with the anterior ethmoidal cells, and in about 50% of skulls is continued upward as the frontonasal duct into the frontal sinus.
Frontal sinus. Each frontal sinus is situated between the external and internal plates of the frontal bone. [1] [2] Their average measurements are as follows: height 28 mm, breadth 24 mm, depth 20 mm, creating a space of 6-7 ml. [3]
The aditus to mastoid antrum (otomastoid foramen) is a large, irregular opening [1] upon the posterior wall of the tympanic cavity by which the mastoid antrum (situated posteriorly) communicates with the epitympanic recess of the tympanic cavity (situated anteriorly). [2]
The canal containing the duct is called the nasolacrimal canal.It is formed by indentations in the inferior nasal conchae, maxilla and lacrimal bone.The canal drains into the nasal cavity through the anterior portion of the inferior meatus, which is between the inferior concha and the floor of the nasal cavity.
Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed in a recent YouTube video that he had botched open-heart surgery about three months before cameras started filming on “Terminator: Dark Fate,” the 2019 action ...
The mastoid antrum (tympanic antrum, antrum mastoideum, Valsalva's antrum) is an air space in the petrous portion of the temporal bone, communicating posteriorly with the mastoid cells and anteriorly with the epitympanic recess of the middle ear via the aditus to mastoid antrum (entrance to the mastoid antrum). These air spaces function as ...
