The Ethmoid Bone
A fractured cribriform plate can result in cerebrospinal fluid leaking into the nose and loss of sense of smell.

parietal bone
The maxillae contain the maxillary sinuses, the ethmoid and sphenoid contain the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses, respectively. ****Maxilla is a facial bone, the three cranial bones that contain sinuses are ethmoid, sphenoid and frontal.
Ethmoid Bone
Ethmoid
An ethmoid is a bone in the human skeleton, situated between the eyes and the roof of the nose.
the sphenoid bone
Posterior means behind or toward the back -- so which bone is behind the ethmoid bone? The sphenoid bone (butterfly shaped one).The bone that is found just posterior to the ethmoid bone in the orbit is the sphenoid. Major paranasal sinuses are the ethmoid, sphenoid, frontal, and maxillary sinuses.
The ethmoid refers to a bone or a sinus. The mucoperiosteum is the lining of that bone and sinus. Minimal ethmoid mucoperiosteal disease means there's a little bit of chronic sinusitis in that sinus.
The superior and medial nasal conchae is part of the ethmoid bone of the cranium. Ethmoid bone separates nasal cavity from the brain.
