Question 17

describe how blood is returned to the internal jugular vein from the

Answer 17

• The superior sagittal sinus arises in the roof of the falx cerebri
• The inferior sagittal sinus arises in the inferior free edge of the falx cerebri and joins the deeply placed great cerebral vein (of Galen) to form the straight sinus
• The straight sinus courses through the midline of the tentorium cerebelli before uniting with the superior sagittal sinus and the small occipital sinus at the confluence of sinuses
• The confluence of sinuses drains into the two transverse sinuses (left and right), which run lateralward and forward in the attached margin of the tentorium cerebelli
