Q

Following a head injury a patient presents with CSF leaking from their nose and a loss of smell.

Which skull bone have they most likely fractured?

A

Acceptable responses: Ethmoid, ethmoid bone, cribiform plate of ethmoid, cribiform plate

The olfactory nerve passes through the cribiform plate of the ethmoid bone to enter the nasal cavity. The ethmoid bone is also part of the neurocranium and if it becomes fractured and tears the meninges then CSF can leak from the subarachnoid space into the nose.
