meningeal vein

Type I dural arteriovenous fistulas are suppied by meningeal arteries and drain into a meningeal vein or dural venous sinus.

'Meningeal veins', which course through the dura mater, and 'bridging veins', which drain the underlying neural tissue and puncture the dura mater, empty into these dural sinuses.

The pharyngeal veins begin in the pharyngeal plexus on the outer surface of the pharynx, and, after receiving some posterior meningeal veins and the vein of the pterygoid canal, end in the internal jugular.
