Early development of veins and sinuses at and around the posterior cranial fossa seemed not to be shown by photographs except for our recent study (Ann Anat, 2020). Examination of histological sections of 38 fetuses at 10–16 weeks gestational age (GA) demonstrated that: (1) the superior petrosal sinus passed posterosuperiorly through the tentorium cerebelli and, distant and lateral to both the cerebellum and internal ear, drained into the transverse sinus; (2) the superior sagittal sinus was underdeveloped, and the inferior sagittal sinus was not yet evident; (3) the straight sinus (STS) originated from a joining of the bilateral pial veins from the lateral ventricular choroid plexus, passed through the inferoposterior part of the falx cerebri, reached the initial confluens sinuum, and then divided into the bilateral transverse sinuses. The STS origin was immediately behind the pineal body, and near the inferoposterior end of the third ventricle. The falx had a thick attachment to the tentorium below the entire course of the STS and was behind other parts of the brain. Therefore, the development and growth of the posterior dural system seemed to be independent from brain growth, and occurred well before the cerebellum grew to fill the posterior cranial fossa. A basic configuration of intracranial veins and sinuses, including embryonic transient veins (such as the vena capitis prima) seemed to be established by venous return from the choroid plexus and cranial wall, without greatly increasing the abundance of neuronal or glial cells in the brain.
