Abstract:
The relationship between rhinitis and chronic sinusitis is close and complex and may perhaps show many points of view, anatomical and physiological, epidemiological (by comparing the prevalence of an ailment in carriers of another ailment), experimental (by making nasal allergen provocation tests and studying the sinus anomalies induced) and physiopathological (by phenotyping and comparison of the inflammation present with one another and other ailments). If the results of these studies are convincing, there is still lack of formal proof that confirms the fundamental role of nasal inflammation in general and in particular allergic inflammation in the genesis of sinusitis.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
