What is bilateral ostiomeatal units and frontal recesses are patent?

Bilateral ostiomeatal units refer to the paired anatomical structures in the nasal cavity that allow drainage of the sinuses, specifically the maxillary, frontal, and anterior ethmoid sinuses. When these units are described as "patent," it means that they are open and unobstructed, facilitating normal airflow and drainage. Frontal recesses, which are the spaces leading to the frontal sinuses, being patent indicates that there is no blockage, ensuring proper sinus function and reducing the risk of infections. Overall, patent ostiomeatal units and frontal recesses are crucial for maintaining sinus health.
