Methods: The clinical data of 13 adult patients with sinuses pericranii undergoing surgery in Beijing Hospital from 1992 to 2016 were analyzed retrospectively, including clinical manifestations, imaging data, surgical results. Results: Each of the patients presented with a nonpulsatile and soft tissue mass in their heads.Their ages ranged from 18 to 48 years (mean, 26 years). The diagnosis of the sinus pericranii was made by the clinical manifestations combined with CT and/or MRI examinations.The sinus pericranii did not play the main role in the drainage of the cerebral vein blood.All the patients were cured.The follow up time was from 6 months to 20 years with no sinus pericranii recurrence in all the patients. Conclusions: The analysis of the drainage pattern of sinus pericranii was necessary before surgery in order to get a safe and good operation.The curative effect of the surgery on the sinus pericranii in adult was reliable.
