INTRODUCTION n n n Dr. Vohra The venous sinuses of the cranial cavity are

INTRODUCTION n n n Dr. Vohra The venous sinuses of the cranial cavity are bloodfilled spaces situated between the layers of the dura mater. They are lined by endothelium. Their walls are thick and composed of fibrous tissue; they have no muscular tissue. The sinuses have no valves. They receive tributaries from the brain, the diploe of the skull, the orbit, and the internal ear. 3

SUPERIOR SAGITTAL SINUS n n Dr. Vohra The superior sagittal sinus occupies the upper

SUPERIOR SAGITTAL SINUS n n Dr. Vohra The superior sagittal sinus occupies the upper fixed border of the falx cerebri. It begins in front at the Crista Gelli It runs backward, grooving the vault of the skull, and at the internal occipital protuberance it deviates to one or the other side (usually the right) and becomes continuous with the corresponding transverse sinus. Numerous arachnoid villi and granulations project into it. 5

SUPERIOR SAGITTAL SINUS n n n Dr. Vohra The superior sagittal sinus receives in

SUPERIOR SAGITTAL SINUS n n n Dr. Vohra The superior sagittal sinus receives in its course the superior cerebral veins At the internal occipital protuberance it is dilated to form the confluence of the sinuses Here, the superior sagittal sinus usually becomes continuous with the right transverse sinus; it is connected to the opposite transverse sinus and receives the occipital sinus 6

INFERIOR SAGITTAL SINUS n n The inferior sagittal sinus occupies the free lower margin

INFERIOR SAGITTAL SINUS n n The inferior sagittal sinus occupies the free lower margin of the falx cerebri. It runs backward and joins the great cerebral vein at the free margin of the tentorium cerebelli to form the straight sinus. Dr. Vohra 7

STRAIGHT SINUS n n n Dr. Vohra The straight sinus occupies the line of

STRAIGHT SINUS n n n Dr. Vohra The straight sinus occupies the line of junction of the falx cerebri with the tentorium cerebelli. It is formed by the union of the inferior sagittal sinus with the great cerebral vein. It ends by turning to the left (sometimes to the right) to form the transverse sinus. b 8

TRANSVERSE SINUSES n The transverse sinuses are paired structures and begin at the internal

TRANSVERSE SINUSES n The transverse sinuses are paired structures and begin at the internal occipital protuberance. n n Each sinus occupies the attached margin of the tentorium cerebelli, grooving the occipital bone and the posteroinferior angle of the parietal bone. They receive: n n Dr. Vohra The right sinus is usually continuous with the superior sagittal sinus. The left sinus is continuous with the straight sinus. Superior petrosal sinuses, They end by turning downward as the sigmoid sinuses. 9

SIGMOID SINUSES n n Dr. Vohra The sigmoid sinuses are a direct continuation of

SIGMOID SINUSES n n Dr. Vohra The sigmoid sinuses are a direct continuation of the transverse sinuses. The sinus then turns downward through the jugular foramen to become internal jugular vein. 10

OCCIPITAL SINUS n n Dr. Vohra The occipital sinus is a small sinus occupying

OCCIPITAL SINUS n n Dr. Vohra The occipital sinus is a small sinus occupying the attached margin of the falx cerebelli. It commences near the foramen magnum, where it communicates with the vertebral veins and drains superiorly into the confluence of sinuses. 11

CAVERNOUS SINUSES n n n Dr. Vohra The internal carotid artery, surrounded by its

CAVERNOUS SINUSES n n n Dr. Vohra The internal carotid artery, surrounded by its sympathetic nerve plexus, runs forward through the sinus. The abducent nerve also passes through the sinus. The internal carotid artery and the nerves are separated from the blood by an endothelial covering. The third and fourth cranial nerves, and the ophthalmic and maxillary divisions of the trigeminal nerve run forward in the lateral wall of the sinus. They lie between the endothelial lining and the dura mater. • The cavernous sinuses are situated in the middle cranial fossa on each side of the body of the sphenoid bone. • Each sinus extends from the superior orbital fissure in front to the apex of the petrous part of the temporal bone behind. 12

SUPERIOR AND INFERIOR PETROSAL SINUSES n n n Dr. Vohra The superior and inferior

SUPERIOR AND INFERIOR PETROSAL SINUSES n n n Dr. Vohra The superior and inferior petrosal sinuses are small sinuses situated on the superior and inferior borders of the petrous part of the temporal bone on each side. Each superior sinus drains the cavernous sinus into the transverse sinus. Each inferior sinus drains the cavernous sinus into the internal jugular vein. 13
