On the intracranial side, the orbital roofs are in contact with the inferior surface of the frontal lobes. The anterior, posterior, and lateral orbital gyri overlie the orbital roof and are supplied by the lateral orbitofrontal artery, which comes from the middle cerebral artery. These circumvolutions are separated by the orbital sulci, which has an “H” shape. The olfactory vein (posterior-lateral), fronto-orbital vein (posteromedial), and prefrontal veins provide the venous drainage of this area. The dura of the orbital roof is vascularized by the lateral branches of the anterior meningeal arteries and variably by branches of the middle meningeal artery. The frontal division of the middle meningeal artery usually gives rise to some branches for the far lateral dura of the orbital roof and a large branch that runs towards the superior orbital fissure. This branch can reach the ophthalmic artery (meningo-ophthalmic artery) or the lacrimal artery (meningo-lacrimal artery), passing through either the superior orbital fissure or an isolate lateral foramen (Hyrtl’s foramen), reported in <20% of cases (Fig. 1). After entering the orbit, the meningo-ophthalmic or meningo-lacrimal artery gives rise to a small branch that recurs through the superior orbital fissure or Hyrtl’s foramen to provide the blood supply of the dura of the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone. Furthermore, additional meningo-orbital foramina can be found along the lateral portion of the orbital roof, serving as routes for branches of the lacrimal artery for the blood supply of the dura of the anterior cranial fossa. Rarely, the paraclinoid internal carotid artery gives rise to some small branches that perforate the anterior clinoid process and vascularize the surrounding dura [1].
