Sinus pericranii (SP) is a rare vascular anomaly of the scalp that consists of an abnormal pericranial venous channel connected to adjacent dural venous sinuses. Most SP are asymptomatic and are found in the pediatric age group. We aim to report a case of symptomatic SP in adult and describe the
A case of symptomatic and recurrent sinus pericranii in a 14-year-old boy is presented. A blood-filled cyst was diagnosed after head trauma. The sinus pericranii was surgically removed. One year later the patient presented with blurred vision, headaches, and recurrence at a different site in the
BACKGROUND
Sinus pericranii is a rare vascular anomaly that is defined as a group of abnormal communications between the extracranial and intracranial venous systems, usually involving the superior sagittal sinus. Different surgical techniques have been used to manage this anomaly. Surgical
BACKGROUND
The extracranial venous drainage of the brain is provided mainly by the jugular veins with the variable participation of extrajugular pathways.
METHODS
Two cases of occipital sinus pericranii (SP) were observed. A 6-year-old girl presented with a progressively enlarging occipital lump;
The authors report a case of sinus pericranii in a 22-year-old female presenting with severe headache, vomiting, bradycardia, and bradypnea following excessive distention of the tumor. After tumor removal, the symptoms were completely relieved. The symptoms were thought to be due to transient
Sinus pericranii (SP) is an uncommon vascular pathology that is characterized by a nodular structure emerging from the scalp. It is generally asymptomatic. Typically, it is aclose to soft, compressive, fluctuant swelling, intracranial sinus. The swelling increases during the Valsalva maneuver,
A rare case of a giant, temporo-occipital sinus pericranii is presented. A 38-year-old male presented with minor symptoms of headache and heaviness over an enlarging temporo-occipital bone defect. Within the defect a soft, compressible, mass lesion was observed, which varied in size with changes in
BACKGROUND
Vascular anomalies accompanied with the diploic veins are rare. Among them, sinus pericranii, which is characterized by abnormal connections between intra- and extracranial venous systems, is relatively common. Besides sinus pericranii, a few cases of subepicranial varix with connections
This study concerns four cases of sinus pericranii observed at the Neurological Department of Nancy. Sinus pericranii is a direct communication between the outer surface of the skull and the intracranial venous sinuses. It may be congenital, acquired or traumatic. This abnormality, usually located
A case of occipital tumor simulating sinus pericranii was reported. The patient was a 4-year-old girl who suffered from headache and nausea following head injury on midoccipital tumor, but had no remarkable neurological deficit. Her occipital tumor was soft, compressible redish and cyst-like without
