    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Anatomy
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • The cavernous sinus is a complex venous structure at the base of the skull.
    • Understanding its anatomical variations, including fatty components, is crucial for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the presence and distribution of fatty components within the cavernous sinus.
    • To identify common locations of fat within this anatomical region.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 17 patient cases undergoing metrizamide CT cisternography.
    • Analysis of high-resolution (1.5 mm-thick slices) CT images of the cavernous sinuses.

    Main Results:

    • Fatty components were identified in most of the examined cavernous sinuses.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • The anterior lateral and posterior ends of the cavernous sinus were the most common sites for visible fat.

    • Conclusions:

    • Fat is a common anatomical finding within the cavernous sinus.
    • Specific locations, namely the anterior lateral and posterior ends, are frequently associated with visible fat in the cavernous sinus.
