Perineural space surrounding olfactory nerve penetrates the nasal mucosa through the cribriform plate. The cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone is considered the key extracranial site of CSF outflow. CSF in SAS passes across the cribriform plate along olfactory nerves to nasal lymphatics and enters cervical lymph nodes (adapted from Semyachkina-Glushkovskaya et al. 2021).
