anatomy of lateral wall by bony ,cartilage & soft tissue (mucosa) Bony – uncinate Process Perpendicular plate of palatine bone Medial plate of pterygoid process of sphenoid bone Medial surfaces of lacrimal bones and maxillae Inferior conchae
anatomy of lateral wall Turbinate Inferior (separate bone) middle superior + - supreme ethmoid bone
anatomy of lateral wall Turbinate inferior, middle and superior turbinate +- supreme turbinate (the most superior) 60 to 70 % of the normal population <20 % of cases posterior ethmoid drain into the supreme meatus ( lateral to the supreme turbinate) if no supreme posterior ethmoid will drain into the superior meatus
anatomy of lateral wall the superior meatus lateral to the superior turbinate the posterior ethmoid opens into the superior meatus sphenoethmoidal recess receives the opening of sphenoid sinus lies medial & superior the superior turbinate
anatomy of lateral wall inferior turbinate Largest of all meatus inferior meatus opening of the nasolacrimal duct
anatomy of lateral wall OSTIO MEATAL COMPLEX key for functional endoscopy sinus surgery The area in the middle meatus where the frontal sinus, the maxillary and anterior ethmoidal area sinuses drain
anatomy of lateral wall Maxillary natural ostium reduced into a small natural ostium in life Anterior-superiorly by the lacrimal bone inferiorly by the inferior turbinate Posteriorly by the perpendicular palate of palatine bone superiorly by the ethmoid bulla & part of uncinate process The rest is covered by mucus membrane (membranous part)
anatomy of lateral wall the uncinate process Crescent-like / sickle shaped structure inferior attachment is always into the inferior turbinate anterior attachment to the lacrimal bone the superior attachment. the lamina paprecyea of the orbit the middle turbinate the skull base
anatomy of lateral wall the uncinate process uncinate process divides the membranous area into anterior & posterior anterior & posterior fontanelle (larger & most commonly accessory ostium ) accessory ostia 5-6 % of the normal population 25 % in chronic sinusitis
anatomy of lateral wall ethmoid bulla the most constant and the largest anterior ethmoid cell Behind the uncinate process
anatomy of lateral wall the hiatus Semilunaris space between this uncinate process & the ethmoid bulla the ethmoid infundibulum area between the uncinate process & the lamina paprecyea
anatomy of lateral wall maxillary sinus is not directly opening into the middle meatus Natural ostium - ethmoid infundibulum -hiatus Semilunaris -the middle meatus frontal sinus drains into the most anterior part of the middle meatus anterior ethmoids cells drains into the middle meatus is through ethmoid bulla
anatomy of lateral wall blood supply of the lateral wall Arteries By both from ICA & ECA the sphenopalatine artery : (main) to all turbinate the greater palatine artery (facial) anterior & posterior ethmoidal arteries venous system is more variable & complex parallel to the arterial supply pterygoid plexus & facial vein
classification of medial maxillectomy
classification of medial maxillectomy Types of maxillary sinusotomy: (SIMMENS CLASSIFICATION) Type.I : Ostium is opened posteriorly to a limited extent(<1cm in D) Type.II : Ostium is opened posteriorly & inferiorly (<2cm in diameter) Type.III : Wide exposure of opening of ostium in all direction anteriorly up to lacrimal crest, superiorly up to orbit, inferiorly to inferior turbinate, posteriorly to level of posterior wall of maxillary sinus
