Summary
A total of 192 retrograde jugular venographies were performed in 163 cases. The lateral and occipital sinus variations in the confluent sinuum were classified in five groups by Kalbag [21]. Additional variations of the lateral and occipital sinuses in the confluent sinuum were discovered in this study.
