Abstract

The basic microvascular anatomy of the human dura is described. The named dural arteries give rise to two outer anastomotic sets of vessels. From the outer arteries, penetrating vessels descend to supply a rich capillary network located near the arachnoid. Arteriovenous shunts are present in the midportion of the dura, which may function to bypass the capillary network.
