    Comprehensive microsurgical anatomy of the jugular foramen and review of terminology
    (Churchill Livingstone, 2001) Tekdemir I.; Tuccar E.; Aslan A.; Elhan A.; Ersoy M.; Deda H.
    The microsurgical anatomy of the jugular foramen was studied in 12 formalin preserved cadavers (24 foramina) and 40 dry-skulls (80 foramina). The jugular foramen was exposed by microsurgical dissection with drilling from a superior to inferior direction. Observations regarding dural architecture of the jugular foramen and relationships between neurovascular structures passing through the foramen were noted in cadavers. Normal bony construction of the foramen and its variational anatomy were examined in dry-skull specimens. Using photographs and drawings, the anatomy of the jugular foramen is presented and related terminology is discussed in the light of a literature review. © 2001 Harcourt Publishers Ltd.
