AbstractJugular foramen, albeit complex, is essentially a bony conduit transmitting nerves and vessels from the posterior cranial fossa to the nasopharyngeal carotid space. In addition to its intrinsic pathologic conditions, a variety of lesions can arise from the contiguous surrounding structures and invade the foramen. A thorough understanding of the anatomy of this region is fundamental for diagnostic evaluation and assessment of its disease extent. Vascular variants and imaging artifacts are potential pitfalls, which should be recognized and avoided.
