Head>Sinus vein
Active
Description
The straight sinus lies in the falx cerebri superior to the tentorium cerebelli, a bilayer of dura mater superior to the cerebellum. The straight sinus receives blood from the inferior sagittal sinus as well as from the great cerebral vein of Galen. It is usually continuous with the left transverse sinus. Details from Gray's anatomy:The straight sinus (tentorial sinus) is situated at the line of junction of the falx cerebri with the tentorium cerebelli. It is triangular in section, increases in size as it proceeds backward, and runs downward and backward from the end of the inferior sagittal sinus to the transverse sinus of the opposite side to that into which the superior sagittal sinus is prolonged. Its terminal part communicates by a cross branch with the confluence of the sinuses. Besides the inferior sagittal sinus, it receives the great cerebral vein (great vein of Galen) and the superior cerebellar veins. A few transverse bands cross its interior.
