Two cases of persistent falcine sinus.
C orreondence To The Editor We read with interest the paper by Cai et al. These authors described two cases of persistent falcine sinus. We would like to add to the authors' discussion by mentioning a recent study of ours. We found that in 25 adult cadavers an extensive network of small tributaries within the falx cerebri could always be found, especially within its posterior one third (Fig.). ...
متن کاملOccipital Falcine Anaplastic Hemangiopericytoma Mimicking Meningioma
The rarity of hemangiopericytoma (HPC) and its controversial histological classification result in its frequent misdiagnosis and thus make the treatment quite challenging. It is often difficult to distinguish these tumors from meningiomas based on clinical features and radiological findings. This is a case report of a man, diagnosed clinically and radiologically as meningioma, which turned out ...

متن کاملPersistent falcine sinus: is it really rare?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The falcine sinus has been considered as a rare variation of the venous pathway between the dural layers of the falx cerebri. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of falcine sinus and its anatomic characteristics by using CTA. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 586 consecutive patients were enrolled in this study. A falcine sinus on CTA was defined as a...
متن کاملOccipital bi-transtentorial/falcine approach for falcotentorial meningioma: case report.
Lesions located in the bilateral posterior incisural space are difficult to treat due to limited exposure. The classical approaches to this area are limited for lesions located bilaterally and especially when the lesion extends also below the tentorium as it may occur with meningiomas. Kawashima et al. reported, in anatomic studies, a new occipital transtentorial approach: the occipital bi-tran...
