Nasal cavity (5)
I believe the answer is:
sinus
'nasal cavity' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for sinus that I've seen before include "Air-filled cavity in one's head" , "Air cavity in the cranial bones" , "Cavity within a bone" , "Air-filled cavity of the skull" , "Cavity linked to nose" .)
