sinus sagittalis superior

sinus sagittalis superior
[TA] superior sagittal sinus: one of the sinuses of the dura mater; it begins in front of the crista galli and extends backward in the convex border of the falx cerebri. Near the internal occipital protuberance it ends in a variable way in the confluence of the sinuses, usually ending in the right transverse sinus. It receives the superior cerebral veins, communicates with the lateral lacunae, and is partially invaginated by arachnoidal granulations. Called also superior longitudinal s.
