Question 9

falx cerebri

tentorium cerebelli

Answer 9

The falx cerebri (or falx) is the largest dural folds- a scythe-shaped band of dura matter that separates a part of the cerebral hemispheres. Its inferior boundary is defined by the inferior sagittal sinus and straight sinus.

The tentorium cerebelli (plural: tentoria cerebellorum) is the second largest dural fold after the falx cerebri. It lies in the axial plane attached perpendicularly to the falx cerebri and divides the cranial cavity into supratentorial and infratentorial compartments 1. It has free and attached margins
