The sphenoethmoidal recess is a small triangular space superior to the superior nasal meatus of the nasal cavity into which the sphenoidal sinus [1] [2] [3] opens. [4] The sphenoethmoidal recess is situated supero posterior to the superior nasal concha, [3] [2] between the superior nasal concha and the anterior aspect of the body of the sphenoid bone.
[2]: 500 One study found that carotid canal protrudation into the sphenoid sinus wall was present in 23.9–32.1% of males and 35.5–36.2% of females, dehiscence in carotid canal was detected more in females (34%) than in males (22%), optic canal protrudation was 33.3 and 30.5% in males and females, and optic canal dehiscence was detected in ...
Paranasal sinuses are a group of four paired air-filled spaces that surround the nasal cavity. [1] The maxillary sinuses are located under the eyes; the frontal sinuses are above the eyes; the ethmoidal sinuses are between the eyes and the sphenoidal sinuses are behind the eyes.
The superior nasal concha is situated posterosuperiorly to the middle nasal concha.It forms the superior boundary of the superior nasal meatus.Superior to the superior nasal concha is the sphenoethmoidal recess where the sphenoid sinus communicates with the nasal cavity; the sphenoethmoidal recess is interposed between the superior nasal concha, and (the anterior aspect of) the body of ...
Above and at the back of the superior concha is the sphenoethmoidal recess which the sphenoidal sinus opens into. The superior meatus occupies the middle third of the nasal cavity’s lateral wall. The middle meatus is the middle-sized and located nasal opening, lying underneath the middle concha and above the inferior concha where the meatus ...

The ethmoid sinuses or ethmoid air cells of the ethmoid bone are one of the four paired paranasal sinuses. [1] Unlike the other three pairs of paranasal sinuses which consist of one or two large cavities, the ethmoidal sinuses entail a number of small air-filled cavities ("air cells"). [2]
