| ethmoidal labyrinth | A mass of air cells with thin bony walls forming part of the lateral wall of the nasal cavity; the cells are arranged in three groups, anterior, middle, and posterior, and are closed laterally by the orbital plate which forms part of the wall of the orbit. Synonym: labyrinthus ethmoidalis, ectethmoid, ectoethmoid, lateral mass of ethmoid bone. (05 Mar 2000) |

| ethmoid |
Gr. ethmos = a sieve, and eidos = resemblance. A term describing the structure of the ethmoid bone of the skull, the most anterior of the four principal braincase regions. It is associated with the nasal capsules and chemosensation. Frequently it fuses with the sphenoid region and is referred to as the sphenethmoid. In mammals, the ethmoid is reduced to a series of turbinals: very thin bones in the nasal passage that help recover respiratory water vapor.
