| Abstract |
We report two types of venous patterns associated with great cerebral vein (vein of Galen) absence or unavailability. Developmental venous anomalies or vein of Galen arteriovenous malformations (VGAM) serve as an illustrative material. A diencephalic pattern that collects the thalamo-striate veins into the tentorial sinus is recognized in most VGAM. A telencephalic arrangement connecting the striate veins with the rostral afferents to the basal vein is less frequent. Both patterns reproduce embryonic stages preceding the development of the great cerebral vein, thus confirming Raybaud's hypothesis that in VGAM the pouch is not the vein of Galen but the medial vein of the prosencephalon. The prognostic value of each pattern can then be appreciated and the therapeutic strategies rationalized; some unexplained complications of the venous approach for non selected VGAM can thus be avoided. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 January 2022.
All research outputs
#8,535,472
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Neuroradiology
#369
of 1,539 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,915
of 16,406 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Neuroradiology
#1
of 1 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,539 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 16,406 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
