Falcine venous plexus within the falx cerebri: anatomical and scanning electron microscopic findings and clinical significance

Abstract

The falcine venous plexus is a network of venous channels that exists within the connective tissue of the falx; the sizes and patterns of communication of these structures showed regional differences. Neurosurgeons should be aware of the regional differences when making an incision or puncturing the falx during a surgical approach.
