Dural Venous Sinuses
Situated between the layers of the dura mater .
Dural sinuses are lined by endothelium, and their walls are thick but devoid of muscular tissue. They have no valves.
Function. to receive blood from the brain through the cerebral veins and the cerebrospinal fluid from the subarachnoid space through the arachnoid villi
.

The blood in the dural sinuses ultimately drains into the internal jugular veins in the neck.
Emissary veins, which are also valveless, connect the dural venous sinuses with the diploic veins of the skull and with the veins of the scalp

Venous sinuses
![Page 13: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The superior sagittal sinus Occupies the
upper fixed border of the falx cerebri
![Page 14: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
It begins anteriorly at the foramen cecum, where it occasionally receives a vein from the nasal cavity.
It runs posteriorly, grooving the vault of the skull.
it deviates to one or the other side (usually the right) at the internal occipital protuberance and becomes continuous with the corresponding transverse sinus.
![Page 15: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The superior sagittal sinus
The confluence of the sinuses
is formed at the internal occipital protuberance.
sinus usually dilates and becomes continuous with the right transverse sinus; it is connected to the opposite transverse sinus and receives the occipital sinus.
![Page 16: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Numerous arachnoid villi and granulations project into the lacunae, which also receive the diploic and meningeal veins .
The superior sagittal sinus in its course receives the superior cerebral veins
![Page 17: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

2. 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.
![Page 19: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

The inferior sagittal sinus receives a few cerebral veins from the medial surface of the cerebral hemispheres.
![Page 21: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The straight sinus It is formed by the union
of the inferior sagittal sinus with the great cerebral vein.
occupies the line of junction of the falx cerebri with the tentorium cerebelli.
It ends by turning to the left (sometimes to the right) to form the transverse sinus
![Page 22: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
1. The transverse sinuses
are paired structures that begin at the internal occipital protuberance
The right sinus is usually continuous with the superior sagittal sinus, and the left is continuous with the straight sinus.
The transverse sinuses receive the superior petrosal sinuses, the inferior cerebral and cerebellar veins, and the diploic veins.
![Page 23: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Each sinus occupies the attached margin of the tentorium cerebelli, grooving the occipital bone and the posteroinferior angle of the parietal bone.
They end by turning downward as the sigmoid sinuses.
![Page 24: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The sigmoid sinuses
are a direct continuation of the transverse sinuses.
Each sinus turns downward and medially and grooves the mastoid part of the temporal bone.
pass inferiorly through the posterior part of the jugular foramen to become continuous with the superior bulb of the internal jugular vein.

The sigmoid sinuses become continuous with the superior bulb of the internal jugular vein.
![Page 28: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
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 into the confluence of sinuses.
![Page 29: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The cavernous sinuses Situated in the middle
cranial fossa on each side of the body of the sphenoid bone.
Each sinus extends from the superior orbital fissure to the apex of the petrous part of the temporal bone.
![Page 30: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Numerous trabeculae cross their interior, giving them a spongy appearance.
The two sinuses communicate with each other by means of the anterior and posterior intercavernous sinuses,
![Page 31: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Tributaries : the superior and inferior ophthalmic veins, the inferior cerebral veins, the sphenoparietal sinus, and the central vein of the retina.
The sinus drains posteriorly into the superior and inferior petrosal sinuses and inferiorly into the pterygoid venous plexus.

Each sinus has an important communication with the facial vein through the superior ophthalmic vein.
This is a route by which infection can travel from the facial skin to the cavernous sinus.

Cavernous sinus Thrombosis
Causes: Bacterial infection that has spread
from the sinuses, teeth, ears, eyes, nose, or skin of the face
Symptoms: Bulging eyeball, usually on one
side of face Cannot move the eye in a
particular direction Drooping eyelids Headaches Vision loss

Tests include: CT scan of the head Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the
brain Magnetic resonance venogram Sinus x-ray Treatment: Cavernous sinus thrombosis is treated with
high-dose antibiotics given through a vein (IV).
Sometimes surgery is needed to drain the infection

Petrosal sinuses
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 of the skull.
![Page 42: 15 dural venous sinuses](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587e20821a28abbc2e8b6ee3/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Each superior sinus drains the cavernous sinus into the transverse sinus
Each inferior sinus drains the cavernous sinus into the internal jugular vein.
