Abstract:
Certain failures in scalp surgery due to defective venous drainage have led the authors to reconsider the classical anatomical data concerning the temporofrontal venous network. The study conducted in the anatomy laboratory concerned 110 superficial temporal territories injected with various coloured polymerizable substances in order to visualize this network in the skin. This study enabled the authors to describe nine types of venous drainage, the surgical implications of which are discussed.
