Notes |
TA98 footnote | Spatium subdurale and spatium epidurale/extradurale Although these terms are in common usage, under normal conditions the arachnoid is attached to the dura and the dura is attached to the skull; there are no naturally occurring spaces at these interfaces at all. The occurrence of these spaces is the result of trauma or of pathological process that artifactually separates the arachnoid from the dura or the dura from the skull. Haines D. E. 1991.
