Accessory maxillary ostium (AMO) is one of the anatomical variations in the maxillary sinus. It can be present in different sizes, shapes, and locations.

It is important to identify the presence of AMO especially in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis as it can lead to mucus recirculation and disease persistence.
