The frontal sinuses, one on each side, are variable in size and are the most superior of the sinuses (Fig. 8.235A–C). Each is triangular in shape and is in the part of the frontal bone under the forehead. The base of each triangular sinus is oriented vertically in the bone at the midline above the bridge of the nose and the apex is laterally approximately one-third of the way along the upper margin of the orbit.
