The oral cavity and its bony component (maxilla and mandible), along with nose and paranasal sinuses, constitute most of the face. The two serve important and lifesaving functions, being the portals for nutrition and respiration. Because of their proximity the disease of one may affect the another1.The complexity of the paranasal sinuses anatomy, as well as their many functions make the sinuses an interesting and rewarding topic of study2.The paranasal sinuses, are carefully hidden from the eye inside the bones of the skull, have repeatedly puzzled anatomists since past. Presumably, because they are closely related to vital organs of the human body, such as the brain, eye, nose, and mouth, many peculiar theories about their function have been developed since years. The history of paranasal sinuses begins from the history of the words sinus and antrum.
