An adult female was found to have a variation of the left basal vein of Rosenthal after presenting with complaints of headache. The vein, in this case, drained directly into the confluence of sinuses instead of the great vein of Galen. Variation of the basal vein is likely due to the embryonic development of the deep cerebral venous system as primitive structures either differentiate further or regress with age. Such changes may result in the uncommon presentation seen in this case. To our knowledge, this is the first case reported of the basal vein draining into the confluence of sinuses.
一名成年女性在出现头痛症状后,被发现存在罗森塔尔左基底静脉变异。在这种情况下,该静脉直接汇入静脉窦汇合处,而非大脑大静脉。基底静脉变异可能是由于大脑深部静脉系统的胚胎发育,随着年龄增长,原始结构进一步分化或退化。这些变化可能导致了本例中所见的罕见表现。据我们所知,这是首例报道的基底静脉汇入静脉窦汇合处的病例。
