(Redirected from Lacrimal sulcus)

On the nasal surface of the body of the maxilla, in front of the opening of the sinus is a deep groove, the 'lacrimal groove' (or 'lacrimal sulcus'), which is converted into the nasolacrimal canal, by the lacrimal bone and inferior nasal concha; this canal opens into the inferior meatus of the nose and transmits the nasolacrimal duct.
