Although other locations are more common for these extensions (orbit and the external table of the calvaria, followed by the nasal cavity and the paranasal sinuses), the meningioma invades the parapharyngeal space through either the foramen lacerum or the jugular fossa.…”

Metastatic Disease of the Temporal Bone: A Contemporary Review

“…However, it may stem from its rich vascular supply and marrow‐lined cavities. These together contribute to a substantial but relatively slow‐moving blood flow throughout the sinusoidal capillaries of the petrosa 125 . As previously denoted, the petrosal marrow facilitates seeding and growth of metastases as well 10,125 …”
