nasal major cavity

Haupthöhle is no doubt the Major Cavity. But I am not sure whether this is the right expression.

disagree  Harald Moelzer (medical-translator): Kein einziger Treffer für "nasal major cavity". Die Unterscheidung zwischen Haupt- und Nebenhöhlen erfolgt (auch im Deutschen) in der Regel nicht über Nasen"haupt"höhle, sondern über den Begriff der "Neben"höhle(n) = paranasal sinus.

main nasal chamber

Nasal chamber erscheint als Übersetzung der Nasenhöhle bei Reuter, med. Wörterbuch - Thieme Verlag.
Beim Googeln fand ich dann "main nasal chamber".

neutral  Harald Moelzer (medical-translator): Sorry, aber mit 10 Google-Hits (genau wie für "primary nasal cavity"!) gegenüber >56.000 für nasal cavity sind diese Alternativen keine gebräuchliche Lösung. Siehe auch Matias-Comment.
