Vein: Deep cerebral veins
Latin	venae profundae cerebri

The deep cerebral veins are a group of veins in the head.

This group includes the superior thalamostriate vein.

Veins (emissary, jugular and others) of head and neck (drainage patterns can vary) (TA A12.3.04–06, GA 7.644)

External jugular

Retromandibular	maxillary (pterygoid plexus) · superficial temporal (anterior auricular)

Direct	posterior auricular transverse cervical · suprascapular · anterior jugular (jugular venous arch)

Internal jugular

Superficial cerebral veins: superior · superficial middle · inferior · inferior anastomotic (Labbé) · superior anastomotic (Trolard)

Deep cerebral veins: great · internal (basal, deep middle, superior thalamostriate)

superior · inferior

To COS	superior sagittal · straight (inferior sagittal) · occipital

To CS	sphenoparietal · intercavernous superior ophthalmic (ethmoidal, central retinal, nasofrontal, vorticose veins) · inferior ophthalmic

To IJV	sigmoid: transverse (petrosquamous) · superior petrosal inferior petrosal (basilar plexus, internal auditory veins) · condylar

Facial/common facial
