Abstract:Background and objective: Accurately identifying and avoiding crucial anatomical structures within the posterior cranial fossa using superficial landmarks is essential for reducing surgical complications. Our study focuses on the top of the mastoid notch (TMN) as an external landmark of the cranium, aiming to assist in the strategic placement of the initial burr hole. In this study, we present a method for predicting the path of the transverse sinus (TS) and explore the relationship between the junction of the… Show more
