Agger nasi cells are the most anterior ethmoid cells and extend anteriorly into the lacrimal bone.

AN ANALYTICAL STUDY OF ANATOMICAL VARIATIONS IN CLINICAL RHINOSINUSITIS

Initially, head and paranasal sinuses CT scan was performed and revealed a large, isodense, well-defined, expansive space-occupying lesion in a midline location, centered in the body of the sphenoid bone and extended to posterior ethmoid cells. The lesion was causing marked thinning of the sphenoid sinus bony wall with bony erosion areas.

Care is taken to leave a strut of bone inferiorly, which is composed of the floor of the bulla and anterior ethmoid cells.

More than 20 years of powered endoscopic ethmoidectomy

The agger nasi cells (Latin for 'nasal mound') are the most anterior ethmoid cells. They are extramural cells (not confined within the ethmoid bone) and extend anteriorly into the lacrimal bone.

Paranasal sinus variants

In particular, if no soft tissue mass is discernible in either the underlying ethmoid cells or the adjacent orbit, such equivocal erosion is often not an area of pathological destruction.

CT evaluation of diseases of paranasal sinuses

Surgical dissection of the ethmoid labyrinth dates back to before 300 BC when Hippocrates removed polyps and parts of ethmoid cells with a sponge attached to strings.
