Abstract :
Jugular foramen is seen at the base of the skull behind the carotid canal. It transmits 9,10,11 cranial nerves and internal jugular vein. Variations in the shape of the jugular foramen may compress these vital structures. The present study was done to determine the anomalous shapes of jugular foramen in dried skulls. When the dried skulls from the department of Anatomy at a private medical college were observed, two skulls were found to show anomalies in their shapes bilaterally. One skull exhibited a complete partition on left side dividing the foramen into two. Another skull was found to have incomplete partitions to such an extent that they could compress the vital structures passing through them. Vernet’s syndrome- a jugular foramen syndrome may be due to inappropriate bone growth leading to partition or anomalous shape of the jugular foramen. The present study demonstrates two dried skulls with anomalous shapes and partition of the jugular foramen.
