IFAC Classification
| Cell type | Cell name | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| Anterior cells | Agger Nasi Cell | The cell that sits either anterior to the origin of the middle turbinate or directly above the most anterior insertion of the middle turbinate into the lateral nasal wall |
| Supra Agger Cell | Anterior-lateral ethmoidal cell located above the agger nasi cell | |
| Supra Agger Frontal Cell | Anterior lateral ethmoidal cell that extends into the frontal sinus | |
| Posterior cells | Supra Bullar Cell | Cell above the bulla ethmoidalis that does not enter the frontal sinus |
| Supra Bullar Frontal Cell | The cell that originates in the supra-bullar region and pneumatizes along the skull base into the posterior region of the frontal sinus. The skull base forms the posterior wall of the cell | |
| Supra Orbital Ethmoidal Cell | An anterior ethmoid cell that pneumatizes around, anterior to, or posterior to the anterior ethmoidal artery over the roof of the orbit | |
| Medial cells | Frontal Septal Cell | Medially based cell of the anterior ethmoid or the inferior frontal sinus, attached to or located in the interfrontal sinus septum |
