Abstract

Objective: To study the character of sinus pericranii in the adults and enhance the levels of the diagnosis and treatment of sinus pericranii. Methods: The clinical data of 13 adult patients with sinuses pericranii undergoing surgery in Beijing Hospital from 1992 to 2016 were analyzed retrospectively, including clinical manifestations, imaging data, surgical results. Results: Each of the patients presented with a nonpulsatile and soft tissue mass in their heads.Their ages ranged from 18 to 48 years (mean, 26 years). The diagnosis of the sinus pericranii was made by the clinical manifestations combined with CT and/or MRI examinations.The sinus pericranii did not play the main role in the drainage of the cerebral vein blood.All the patients were cured.The follow up time was from 6 months to 20 years with no sinus pericranii recurrence in all the patients. Conclusions: The analysis of the drainage pattern of sinus pericranii was necessary before surgery in order to get a safe and good operation.The curative effect of the surgery on the sinus pericranii in adult was reliable.

目的: 分析13例成人颅骨骨膜窦患者临床特点以提高该病诊治水平。 方法: 回顾性分析北京医院1992年1月至2016年10月收治的13例成人颅骨骨膜窦患者,其中男9例,女4例;年龄18~48岁,平均26岁。病程3个月至28年,平均6.8年,临床表现、影像学检查、手术治疗效果等临床资料。 结果: 13例颅骨骨膜窦均表现为头皮柔软肿物,有波动感,术前检查颅骨骨膜窦不是颅内静脉回流的主要通道,全部接受了手术治疗,一次手术治愈,头皮肿物消失,术后无并发症。术后所有患者接受随访6个月至20年,均无复发。 结论: 成人颅骨骨膜窦几乎没有引流颅内静脉,手术治疗安全,疗效可靠。.
