Venous Flashcards
Major out flow from intracranial
⭐️ IJV right promnint > than left #️⃣ artery
Others orbital vein and bonus plexus around the VA
Collateral SSS
Diploic and scalp veins
Drain of venous system
Inferior petrousal ➡️ IJV ➡️ sigmoid
Superior petrosal sinus Terminates ➡️ at sigmoid sinus within 1 cm of the junction of the sigmoid ➡️transverse sinuses( R > L)
Vein of labbe
Prominent Dominant side Lt
Is inferior anastamotic vein ➡️ transverse ➡️ sigmoid
Rosenthal V
= basal cerebral vein drain ➡️ vein of Galen ➡️ straight sinus ➡️ TS ➡️ SS
Trolard
Prominent non dominant right
= superior anastamotic vein drain ➡️ SSS
Confluence of sinuses
Other names
torcular Herophili AKA torcula AKA confluens sinuum [TA])
📍 internal occipital protuberance
Collection came from ; occipital sinus , SSS ( cortical vein and trolard) , straight sinus ( inferior sagital , VOg ,
