Abstract
The maxillary sinuses are the largest of the paranasal air sinuses and are contained within the body of the maxilla one on each side. They are of the shape of an irregular three sided pyramid. The apex extends into the zygomatic process of the maxilla and the base is the lower part of the lateral wall of the nose.
