Summary

After a brief resumé of the morphology of the pontomesencephalic veins, the authors demonstrate the drainage dynamics of these veins in normal and pathlogical vertebral angio-seriograms. The repercussions of drainage impairment are illustrated.

Résumé

Après un bref résumé de la morphologie des veines ponto-mésencéphalques, les auteurs décrivent les modalités de drainage de ces veines en sérioangiographie vertébrale normale et pathologique. Ils illustrent les répercussions de drainage défectueux.

Zusammenfassung

Nach kurzer Beschreibung der Morphologie der pontomesencephalen Venen wird die Drainagedynamik dieser Venen anhand normaler und pathologischer Vertebralisangiogramme demonstriert. Die unterschiedlichen Mechanismen einer Drainagebehinderung werden erläutert.
