Endovascular Transvenous Embolization Combined with Direct Punction of the Sinus Pericranii

Abstract

Sinus Pericranii is a rare venous anomaly in which the communication between the intraand extracranial venous system is constituted by a network of thin-walled veins that form a varix on the external table of the skull. This varix is continuous with the pericranial veins of the scalp. We describe a 31-year-old woman with frontal sinus pericranii treated using an original endovascular technique by transvenous approach combined with direct punction.
