What are: (1) lateral frontal sinus: the largest, only one of clinical relevance. It occupies the zygomatic process and extends caudally, bounded laterally by the temporal line. (2) rostral frontal sinus: small, lies between the median plane and the orbit. the ethmoid labyrinth bulges into this sinus (3) medial frontal sinus: lies between the median septum and the walls of the other two sinuses. It is very small and may be absent. *note: all three sinuses communicate with the nasal cavity
400
This is composed of the vocal folds, the vocal processes of arytenoid cartilages and the rima glottidis
What is the glottis
