MR Imaging of the Orbital Apex
J Korean Radiol Soc 2000;4 :26 9-0 6 1 6 MR Imaging of the Orbital Apex: An a to m y and Pat h o l o g y 1 Ho Kyu Lee, M.D., Chang Jin Kim, M.D.2, Hyosook Ahn, M.D.3, Ji Hoon Shin, M.D., Choong Gon Choi, M.D., Dae Chul Suh, M.D. The apex of the orbit is basically formed by the optic canal, the superior orbital fis- su r e , and their contents. Space-occupying lesions in this area can result in clinical d- eficits caused by compression of the optic nerve or extraocular muscles. Even vas c u l a r changes in the cavernous sinus can produce a direct mass effect and affect the orbit ap e x. When pathologic changes in this region is suspected, contrast-enhanced MR imaging with fat saturation is very useful. According to the anatomic regions from which the lesions arise, they can be classi- fied as belonging to one of five groups; lesions of the optic nerve-sheath complex, of the conal and intraconal spaces, of the extraconal space and bony orbit, of the cav- ernous sinus or diffuse. The characteristic MR findings of various orbital lesions will be described in this paper.

CT of Perineural Tumor Extension: Pterygopalatine Fossa
731 CT of Perineural Tumor Extension: Pterygopalatine Fossa Hugh D. Curtin1.2 Tumors of the oral cavity and paranasal sinuses can spread along nerves to areas Richard Williams 1 apparently removed from the primary tumor. In tumors of the palate, sinuses, and face, Jonas Johnson3 this "perineural" spread usually involves the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve. The pterygopalatine fossa is a pathway of the maxillary nerve and becomes a key landmark in the detection of neural metastasis by computed tomogaphy (CT). Oblitera tion of the fat in the fossa suggests pathology. Case material illustrating neural extension is presented and the CT findings are described. Perineural extension is possibly the most insidious form of tumor spread of head and neck malignancy. After invading a nerve, tumor follows the sheath to reach the deeper connections of the nerve, escaping the area of a planned resection. Thus, detection of this form of extension is important in treatment planning and estimation of prognosis. The pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) is a key crossroad in extension along cranial nerve V. The second branch of the trigeminal nerve passes from the gasserian ganglion through the foramen rotundum into the PPF. Here the nerve branches send communications to the palate, sinus, nasal cavity, and face. Tumor can follow any of these routes proximally into the PPF and eventually to the gasserian ganglion in the middle cranial fossa. The PPF contains enough fat to be an ideal subject for computed tomographic (CT) evaluation. Obliteration of this fat is an important indicator of pathology, including perineural tumor spread. Other signs of perineural extension include enlargement of foramina, increased enhancement in the region of Meckel cave (gasserian ganglion), and atrophy of the muscles innervated by the trigeminal nerve. -
Hemodynamic Features in Normal and Cavernous Sinus Dural ORIGINAL RESEARCH Arteriovenous Fistulas
Published September 6, 2012 as 10.3174/ajnr.A3252 Superior Petrosal Sinus: Hemodynamic Features in Normal and Cavernous Sinus Dural ORIGINAL RESEARCH Arteriovenous Fistulas R. Shimada BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Normal hemodynamic features of the superior petrosal sinus and their H. Kiyosue relationships to the SPS drainage from cavernous sinus dural arteriovenous fistulas are not well known. We investigated normal hemodynamic features of the SPS on cerebral angiography as well as the S. Tanoue frequency and types of the SPS drainage from CSDAVFs. H. Mori T. Abe MATERIALS AND METHODS: We evaluated 119 patients who underwent cerebral angiography by focusing on visualization and hemodynamic status of the SPS. We also reviewed selective angiography in 25 consecutive patients with CSDAVFs; we were especially interested in the presence of drainage routes through the SPS from CSDAVFs. RESULTS: In 119 patients (238 sides), the SPS was segmentally (anterior segment, 37 sides; posterior segment, 82 sides) or totally (116 sides) demonstrated. It was demonstrated on carotid angiography in 11 sides (4.6%), receiving blood from the basal vein of Rosenthal or sphenopetrosal sinus, and on vertebral angiography in 235 sides (98.7%), receiving blood from the petrosal vein. No SPSs were demonstrated with venous drainage from the cavernous sinus. SPS drainage was found in 7 of 25 patients (28%) with CSDAVFs. CSDAVFs drained through the anterior segment of SPS into the petrosal vein without draining to the posterior segment in 3 of 7 patients (12%). CONCLUSIONS: The SPS normally works as the drainage route receiving blood from the anterior cerebellar and brain stem venous systems. -

ISSN 2321-4287 Original Research Article DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.16965/ijar.2017.300 A STUDY ON POSITION OF INFRAORBITAL FORAMEN Shaik Hussain Saheb 1, Shruthi B.N *2, Pavan P Havaldar 3. 1 Department of Anatomy, JJM Medical College, Davangere, Karnataka, India. *2 Department of Anatomy, Rajarajeswari Medical College and hospital, Bangalore, Karnataka, India. 3 Department of Anatomy, Gadag institute of medical sciences, Gadag, Karnataka, India. ABSTRACT Background: The infraorbital foramen is located on the maxillary bone about 1 cm inferior to the infraorbital margin. The infraorbital nerve and vessels are transmitted through this foramen. The infraorbital nerve, the continuation of the maxillary or second division of the trigeminal nerve, is solely a sensory nerve. It traverses the inferior orbital fissure into the inferior orbital canal and emerges onto the face at the infraorbital foramen. It divides into several branches that innervate the skin and the mucous membrane of the midface, such as the lower eyelid, cheek, lateral aspect of the nose, upper lip, and the labial gum. Materials and Methods: Total 300 skulls were used for this study, the following mesearements were recorded, mean distance between the infra orbital foramen and the infra orbital margin on right and left side and average of it. The mean distance between the infra orbital foramen and the piriform aperature on right and left side measured and average of it also recorded. The mean distance between infra orbital foramen and the anterior nasal spine on right and left side measured. -

Methods: Sagittal head mag- netic resonance (MR) images were obtained of a 54-year-old female who suffered from left posterior fossa tumor. A comprehensive modeling protocol consisting of five steps including thresholding, crop mask, region growing, 3D calculating and 3D editing was used to develop a 3D digital atlas of the dural sinuses and deep veins based on the MR images. The accuracy of the atlas was also evaluated. Results: The 3D digital atlas of the human dural sinus and deep veins was successfully constructed using 176 sagittal head MR images. The contours of the acquired model matched very well with the corresponding structures of the original images in axial and oblique view of MR cross- sections. The atlas can be arbitrarily rotated and viewed from any direction. It can also be zoomed in and out directly using the zoom function. Conclusion: A 3D digital atlas of human dural sinus and deep veins was successfully cre- ated, it can be used for repeated observations and research purposes without limitations of time and shortage of corpses. -
External Jugular Venous Sampling for Cushing's Disease in a Patient With
CASE REPORT External jugular venous sampling for Cushing’s disease in a patient with hypoplastic inferior petrosal sinuses Keyan A. Peterson, MS, MBA,1 Christofer D. Burnette, RT,2 Kyle M. Fargen, MD, MPH,1 Patrick A. Brown, MD,2 James L. West, MD,1 Stephen B. Tatter, MD, PhD,1 and Stacey Q. Wolfe, MD1 1Department of Neurosurgery, Wake Forest University School of Medicine; and 2Department of Radiology, Wake Forest Baptist Health, Winston-Salem, North Carolina The authors report the case of a 30-year-old female patient with suspected Cushing’s disease with an anatomical variation of hypoplastic inferior petrosal sinuses and nearly exclusive anterior drainage from the cavernous sinus, who underwent external jugular venous blood sampling with successful disease confirmation and microadenoma localization. The patient presented with signs and symptoms consistent with Cushing’s syndrome, but with discordant preliminary diagnostic testing. She underwent attempted bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling; however, she had hypoplastic in- ferior petrosal sinuses bilaterally and predominantly anterior drainage from the cavernous sinus into the external jugular circulation. Given this finding, the decision was made to proceed with external jugular venous access and sampling in addition to internal jugular venous sampling. A positive adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) response to corticotropin- releasing factor was obtained in the right external jugular vein alone, suggesting a right-sided pituitary microadenoma as the cause of her Cushing’s disease. The patient subsequently underwent a transsphenoidal hypophysectomy that confirmed the presence of a right-sided ACTH-secreting microadenoma, which was successfully resected. She was hypocortisolemic on discharge and has had no signs of recurrence or relapse at 6 months postoperation. -

د.احمد فاضل القيسي Lecture 7 Anatomy THE PTERYGOPALATINE FOSSA The pterygopalatine fossa lies beneath the posterior surface of the maxilla and the pterygoid process of the sphenoid bone. The pterygopalatine fossa contains the maxillary nerve, the maxillary artery (third part) and the pterygopalatine parasympathetic ganglion. Boundaries Anteriorly: posterior surface of maxilla. Posteriorly: anterior margin of pterygoid process below and greater wing of sphenoid above. Medially: perpendicular plate of palatine bone. Superiorly: greater wing of sphenoid. Laterally: communicates with infratemporal fossa through pterygomaxillary fissure Communications and openings: 1. The pterygomaxillary fissure: transmits the maxillary artery from the infratemporal fossa, the posterior superior alveolar branches of the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve and the sphenopalatine veins. 2. The inferior orbital fissure: transmits the infraorbital and zygomatic branches of the maxillary nerve, the orbital branches of the pterygopalatine ganglion and the infraorbital vessels. 3. The foramen rotundum from the middle cranial fossa, occupying the greater wing of the sphenoid bone and transmit the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve 4. The pterygoid canal from the region of the foramen lacerum at the base of the skull. The pterygoid canal transmits the greater petrosal and deep petrosal nerves (which combine to form the nerve of the pterygoid canal) and an accompanying artery derived from the maxillary artery. 5. The sphenopalatine foramen lying high up on the medial wall of the fossa.This foramen communicates with the lateral wall of the nasal cavity. It transmits the nasopalatine and posterior superior nasal nerves (from the pterygopalatine ganglion) and the sphenopalatine vessels. 6. The opening of a palatine canal found at the base of the fossa. -
