There are usually five cribriform circular plates arranged in two longitudinal and slightly divergent series.
Radiation for medulloblastoma adjusted to prevent recurrence to the cribriform plate region.
From there, it migrates further along nerve fibres and enters the floor of the cranium via the cribriform plate and into the brain.
The ethmoid fracture can produce bone fragments that penetrate the cribriform plate.
This plexus appears near the cribriform plate and travels posteriorly toward the olfactory trigone, medial olfactory gyrus, and lamina terminalis.
The lacrimal duct, nasal bone, nasal cavity, vomer, maxillary sinus, cribriform plate, and ethmoid cells are often missing on the involved side.
The axons of these cells aggregate into 30-40 fascicles, called the olfactory fila, which project through the cribriform plate and pia matter.
The upper portion of the nasal chambers contain the sensory receptors responsible for olfaction, and are situated in a neuroepithelium which lines the cribriform plate.
