Q

What does the dural venous sinuses receive blood from?

A

Veins associated with the cerebrum, cerebellum and brain stem

22
Q

What does the dural venous sinuses drain into?

A

Interval jugular vein

23
Q

Do emissary veins have valves?

A

No

24
Q

Where do the emissary veins travel from and to?

A

Viscerocranium to the neurocranium

25
Q

What veins does the emissary veins connect?

A

The dural venous sinuses and the veins external to the skull

26
Q

What is the function of the emissary veins?

A

Provide cooling if the brain and alternative drainage route of the brain in case if obstruction if dural venous sinuses

27
Q

Do the emissary veins spread infection?

A

Yes, provide pathway for spreading of the extra cranial infections to neurocranium

28
Q

Where can the emissary veins spread infection?

A

Transmitted from the scalp to the cranial cavity

29
Q

What is a specific disease which can arise from emissary veins carrying infection?

A

Meningitis

Blood clot to brain

30
Q

What arteries carry blood to face?

A

Facial artery
Superficial temporal artery
Transverse facial artery

Q
A
33
Q

What vein is this and what does it drain into?

A

Angular vein

Drains into facial vein

34
Q

What vein is this and what does it drain into?

A

Supra orbital vein

Drains into superior ophthalmic vein

35
Q

What can an infection in the face (veins) cause?

A

Can travel through the orphanage,I’d veins and into the cranial cavity

Specifically the venous sinuses

Here it is the cavernous sinus

Cause cavernous sinus thrombosis

36
Q

What is a blood clot here called/cause?

A

Cavernous sinus thrombosis

Clotting of blood
