Surgical Anatomy of CavernousSinus
Surgical anatomy of cavernous sinus is best explained under
following
headings –
1)Bony relationships
2) Dural relationships
3) Venous relationships
4) Neural relationships
5) Arterial relationships
BONY
RELATIONSHIPS
MEDIAL –
-Middle clinoid
process
-Pituitary fossa
-Body of
sphenoid
-Carotid sulcus
(groove for
intracavernous
ICA at the lower
margin of the
sphenoid body)
ANTERIOR – Optic strut/ Anterior
clinoid process/ Lesser wing of
sphenoid
LATERAL –
-Greater
wing of
sphenoid
-Foramen
-rotundum
-ovale
-spinosum
POSTERIOR – Posterior clinoid
process/ Dorsum sella/ Petrous
apex/ Trigeminal impression
Dural
relationship
s
Floor & Medial wall – formed by single
periosteal layer of dura, supero- medially
it continues with dura of sella turcica.
Roof, Lateral & Posterior wall- are
double layered, formed by periosteal
layer of dura + dura proper of middle &
posterior fossa respectively.
-roof medially continues with Diaphragma
sella.

Initially developed by DOLENC ––as anteromedial
transcavernous approach, for intracavernous aneurysm
UNDERWENT SEVERAL MODIFICATIONS
INDICATION ––Lesions confined to cavernous
sinus/ with supratentorial extension
ADVANTAGE --Can be combined with Middle fossa
transpetrosal approach for excision of for posterior
extension of tumor.

Lateral Approach to posterior cavernous sinus(Rhomboid
Approach)
--Bone to be drilled out in middle

Intersection of GSPN to V3
Intersection of line
projecting along the axis
of GSPN to AE
AE intersection with petrous

Porous trigeminus
GSPN can be sectioned, to
avoid VIIth N. retraction.
TECHNICAL CONSIDERATION OF
INTRACAVERNOUS TUMOR
RESECTIONINTRACAVERNOUS RESECTION-
Well encapsulated & nonadherent tumors can be
removed by 1)exposure of tumor capsule from
surrounding tissue
2) debulking of tumor
3) sharp dissection of tumor capsule from surrounding
tissue
Invasive & adherent tumors can be removed by
1) interruption of tumor blood supply from periphery of

TECHNICAL CONSIDERATION OF INTRACAVERNOUS TUMOR RESECTIONINTRACAVERNOUS RESECTION- Well encapsulated & nonadherent tumors can be removed by 1)exposure of tumor capsule from surrounding tissue 2) debulking of tumor 3) sharp dissection of tumor capsule from surrounding tissue Invasive & adherent tumors can be removed by 1) interruption of tumor blood supply from periphery of
