middle cerebral vein

The middle cerebral veins.

Middle cerebral vein can refer to:

It crosses and anastomoses at its two ends with the middle cerebral vein and the transverse sinus.

The vein anastomoses with the middle cerebral vein and the superior sagittal sinus.

The external veins are the superior cerebral veins, inferior cerebral veins, and middle cerebral vein.

In Troodon formosus "the transverse sinus probably drained into a middle cerebral vein that exited the brain in the ridge present on the dorsal edge of the trigeminal foramen."

The deep middle cerebral vein (deep Sylvian vein) receives tributaries from the insula and neighboring gyri, and runs in the lower part of the lateral cerebral fissure.

The superficial middle cerebral vein (superficial Sylvian vein) begins on the lateral surface of the hemisphere, and, running along the lateral cerebral sulcus, ends in the cavernous or the sphenoparietal sinus.
