Bulges of the most posterior ethmoid air cells into the maxillary sinus were termed maxillary bullæ by Onodi. With few exceptions, they have since been ignored by anatomists through time. Likewise, Sieur cells-the spheno-ethmoido-maxillary air cells-are uncommonly found in anatomical texts.

The ethmoido-maxillary plate is a thin layer of bone separating the maxillary sinus from the ethmoidal cells or sphenoidal sinus. The plate was studied using axial HRCT images obtained from various otological lesions. One hundred forty-one adults were included in this study.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOto-rhino-laryngologists usually deny the existence of infant chronic ethmoido-maxillary sinusitis, generally agreeing that the earliest signs of pneumatization of the maxillary sinuses cannot be observed earlier than 18 months of age. Based upon ten cases we present evidence that this notion of "late sinusal pneumatization" should be re-examined, pneumatized maxillary sinuses being possible as early as 11 months of age. Thus, at that age, radiodiagnosed apneumatosis which is considered as physiological, may express various conditions, such as true anatomical apneumatosis, chronic glue sinusitis, or simple inflammatory sinusitis of the mucous membrane.
