Fig. 21 (a, b) Coronal CT scans. (a) A large agger nasi cell (note the intimate relation between agger nasi cell and uncinate process). (b) Transition of the agger nasi cell into a lacrimal cell (note again that the floor of this cell is shaped by the uncinate process that is now more visible). Yellow arrows: frontal process of the maxilla. Blue arrows: orbital plate of the frontal bone. Green arrows: lacrimal bone. Note in (a) the free border of the middle turbinate is not visible or adjacent to the agger nasi cell, and the lateral wall of that cell is made up by the frontal recess of the maxilla.
Yellow arrows: sutura frontomaxillaris. Blue arrow: sutura frontonasalis. Note the difference in height between the superior border of the lacrimal and ethmoidal bone! This difference results in a bend (in a) or even a notch (in b) of the sutura frontoethmoidalis (incisura lamina orbitalis, ossis ethmoidalis, or lamina papyracea – purple line), ANT denotes anterior (Courtesy of Samuel Márquez, PhD) Fig. 18 View of medial wall of orbit. Numbers (see Fig. 17). Red lines: attachment of ocular muscles.
It ranges from nearly flat to 4 mm in height and 14–22 mm in length with its free margin occasionally projecting into the nasal cavity (Figs. 32) [97]. The uncinate process being immediately posterior to the agger nasi bone makes its visualization on the lateral nasal wall dependent on the anterior and inferior expansion of the middle turbinate. The uncinate process is considered one of the most important surgical landmarks of the lateral nasal wall for endonasal sinus surgery. 4 The dynamics of this region are such that any abnormal growth or excessive pneumatization of the uncinate process can potentially narrow and ultimately obstruct the outflow tract of multiple sinuses.
