  2. Middle cerebral veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_cerebral_veins

    The superficial middle cerebral vein (superficial Sylvian vein) begins on the lateral surface of the hemisphere. It runs along the lateral sulcus [1] to empty into either the cavernous sinus, [1] [2] or sphenoparietal sinus. [1] It is adherent to the deep surface of the arachnoid mater bridging the lateral sulcus. It drains the adjacent cortex.

  6. Nutrient artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutrient_artery

    The nutrient artery (arteria nutricia, or central artery), usually accompanied by one or two nutrient veins, enters the bone through the nutrient foramen, runs obliquely through the cortex, sends branches upward and downward to the bone marrow, which ramify in the endosteum–the vascular membrane lining the medullary cavity–and give twigs to the adjoining canals.

  7. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_venous_sinus...

    Dural venous sinuses bordered by hard meninges (shown in blue) direct blood outflow from cerebral veins to the internal jugular vein at the base of skull. The veins of the brain, both the superficial veins and the deep venous system, empty into the dural venous sinuses, which carry blood back to the jugular vein and thence to the heart. In ...

  8. Radicular veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radicular_veins

    Radicular veins (or segmental medullary veins [citation needed]) are segmental veins providing venous drainage of the spinal cord and canal. They communicate with anterior and posterior spinal veins as well as epidural venous plexus. They exit the spinal canal through the intervertebral foramina, accompanying the corresponding of radicular ...

  9. Cerebral veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_veins

    In human anatomy, the cerebral veins are blood vessels in the cerebral circulation which drain blood from the cerebrum of the human brain. They are divisible into external ( superficial cerebral veins ) and internal ( internal cerebral veins ) groups according to the outer or inner parts of the hemispheres they drain into.
