Complications after obliteration of the superior petrosal vein: Are they rare or just underreported?
Cheng L. Cheng L. J Clin Neurosci. 2016 Sep;31:1-3. doi: 10.1016/j.jocn.2015.11.033. Epub 2016 May 10. J Clin Neurosci. 2016. PMID: 27178112 Review.
Dandy first described the course of the superior petrosal vein (SPV) and its importance during surgery in 1929. Although it has been reported that this vein can be sacrificed without complication, unfavourable outcomes may occur after dividing the SPV. ...
