Anatomy · English · Medical students and healthcare learners · 0:51
Follow a major venous drainage route from the transverse sinus to the sigmoid sinus and internal jugular vein. Includes a short recall question and explains why the two sides may look different. General anatomy teaching; the reference animation does not establish a patient's diagnosis. Sources were checked against anatomical studies. Independent clinical review remains pending. Original schematic teaching with synthetic English narration, synchronized captions and a recall question. Medical sources checked on 16 September 2026. Source checking is not independent clinical approval. Knowledge check: Which sinus continues from the transverse sinus toward the internal jugular vein? Answer: The transverse sinus continues as the sigmoid sinus, which leads to the jugular bulb and internal jugular vein. This is one major cerebral venous outflow route.
