Identification of Onodi cell is very important clinically because of its proximity to optic nerve canal. We concluded that type IV Onodi-optic canal relationship was the most common finding in our study. Onodi cell presence and their patterns of pneumatization must be evaluated on PNSCT preoperatively to avoid optic canal damage.
