At this point it is continued as the corresponding transverse sinus.
2.
Many patients with IIH have narrowing of the transverse sinuses.
3.
The lines are called the groove for the transverse sinuses.
4.
The upper fossae are separated from the lower fossae by a groove for the transverse sinuses.
5.
The sigmoid sinus, which continues the transverse sinus, empties into the jugular vein at the jugular foramen.
6.
A self-expanding metal stent is permanently deployed within the dominant transverse sinus across the stenosis under general anaesthesia.
7.
The superior sagittal sinus divides into two parts called the transverse sinuses where the falx cerebri meets the tentorium cerebelli.
8.
In the largest single series of transverse sinus stenting there was an 11 % rate of recurrence after one stent, requiring further stenting.
9.
Laying the whole-mount on a glass slide allows for histological analysis of the entire dura, including the superior sagittal and transverse sinuses.
10.
From here, two transverse sinuses bifurcate and travel laterally and inferiorly in an S-shaped curve that form the sigmoid sinuses which go on to form the two jugular veins.
