Cavity in the body filled with air (5)

I believe the answer is:

sinus

(Other definitions for sinus that I've seen before include "Channel between brain and skull" , "Space in temple" , "Air-filled cavity of the skull" , "Cavity in skull connecting with nostrils" , "Cavity linked to nose" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
