Journal Title: Cumhuriyet Medical Journal - Year 2018, Vol 40, Issue 1

Abstract

Sinus pericranii (SP) is a very rare venous anomaly and characterized by communication of pericranial varicose venous structures with dural sinus. In this case, we present the multimodality imaging Doppler ultrasonography (Doppler US), computed tomography (CT), 3D-volume rendering technique computed tomography (3D-VRT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance venography (MRV), digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and clinical findings of a 47-year-old woman with SP in the left lateral frontal region of the scalp under the guidance of the literature.
