It communicates with the straight sinus, superior sagittal sinus and the occipital sinus at a point called the confluence of sinuses; at the level of the internal occipital protuberance.
1 paź 2024 · Dural venous sinuses are a network of large, endothelial-lined venous channels located between the layers of the dura mater in the brain. These sinuses are responsible for collecting deoxygenated blood from the brain, the meninges, and the bones of the skull.
1 paź 2024 · In this article, we shall look at the anatomy of the dural venous sinuses – their structure, location, and clinical correlations. Note: This article specifically discusses the dural venous sinuses. For a more general overview of venous drainage of the central nervous system, please see here.
19 lip 2024 · Dural venous sinuses are venous channels located intracranially between the two layers of the dura mater (endosteal layer and meningeal layer) and can be conceptualised as trapped epidural veins. Unlike other veins in the body, they run alone and not parallel to arteries.
A dural venous sinus, in human anatomy, is any of the channels of a branching complex sinus network that lies between layers of the dura mater, the outermost covering of the brain, and functions to collect oxygen-depleted blood. Unlike veins, these sinuses possess no muscular coat.
The dural venous sinuses (also termed dural sinuses, cerebral sinuses, or cranial sinuses) are venous channels found between the periosteal and meningeal layers of dura mater in the brain.
Discover the complex network of dural venous sinuses and their crucial role in brain venous drainage.
