This study details a rare case of sinus pericranii, a venous anomaly, that developed years after a childhood head injury. Surgical resection was successful, offering insights into managing this uncommon condition.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Neurosurgery
- Pediatric Surgery
Background:
- Sinus pericranii is a rare venous malformation involving abnormal connections between intracranial and subperiosteal veins.
- Trauma-induced sinus pericranii is exceptionally uncommon, with limited documented cases.
Observation:
- A case of delayed-onset sinus pericranii is presented, stemming from a childhood forehead injury.
- The patient presented with symptoms years after the initial trauma.
Findings:
- Successful surgical resection of the sinus pericranii was achieved using a coronal incision.
- Meticulous bone wax sealing was employed during the procedure.
Implications:
- This case highlights the importance of considering sinus pericranii in the differential diagnosis of forehead masses following trauma.
- The surgical techniques described provide valuable guidance for managing this rare condition.
- Further research into the long-term outcomes of trauma-induced sinus pericranii is warranted.

01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
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...
01:14Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
