Uncinate process of ethmoid bone

Between the posterior edge of this process and the anterior surface of the ethmoid bulla, there is a two-dimensional space, resembling a crescent shape.

This concept is easier to understand if one imagine the infundibulum as a prism so that its medial face is the hiatus semilunaris.

The uncinate process can be attached to either the lateral nasal wall, on the lamina papyracea (50%), the anterior cranial fossa, on the ethmoidal roof (25%), or the middle concha (25%).
