The risks and benefits of coagulating intradural venous elements during a retrosigmoid approach for trigeminal neurovascular decompression has not been accurately established. The objectives of this study were to identify the veins that drain into the superior petrosal sinus, classify them in relation to the suprameatal tubercle, and determine the implication of their coagulation.

Abstract

The risks and benefits of coagulating intradural venous elements during a retrosigmoid approach for trigeminal neurovascular decompression has not been accurately established. The objectives of this study were to identify the veins that drain into the superior petrosal sinus, classify them in relation to the suprameatal tubercle, and determine the implication of their coagulation.
