The primary function of the straight sinus is to collect venous blood from deep structures of the brain and transport it to the confluence of sinuses, where it can then proceed to the internal jugular veins. By draining blood from areas such as the midbrain and parts of the cerebellum, the straight sinus helps maintain proper venous circulation within the cranial cavity. Additionally, it plays a role in regulating intracranial pressure and facilitating the removal of metabolic waste products, ensuring brain tissues remain healthy and functioning optimally. Any obstruction in this sinus can potentially lead to serious complications, underscoring its importance in cerebral circulation.
