Cranial Bones: Lateral View

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Area of Science:

Vascular malformations
Pediatric neurosurgery
Medical imaging

Background:

Sinus pericranii (SP) is a rare venous malformation involving abnormal emissary veins connecting intracranial sinuses to epicranial veins.
Diagnosis, management, and treatment of SP lack established consensus.
This condition presents unique challenges in pediatric care.

Observation:

A 4-month-old infant presented with a sinus pericranii.
A three-dimensional (3D) printed model was utilized for this case.
The model facilitated detailed visualization of the SP's angioarchitecture.

Findings:

The 3D printed model enabled precise definition of the abnormal venous structures in sinus pericranii.
This approach improved the understanding of the condition's complex vascular anatomy.
The model served as a valuable tool for surgical planning and patient education.

Implications:

Three-dimensional printing offers a novel approach to managing rare vascular malformations like sinus pericranii.
This technology can enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment strategies in pediatric neurosurgery.
Utilizing 3D models can improve communication between medical teams and patient families regarding complex conditions.
