a potential space between the dura mater and the skull
This space lies between the dura mater and the walls of the vertebral canal, it contains loose connective tissue, blood vessels and some adipose tissue.
Cavity between the bony and ligamentous walls of the vertebral canal and the dura. Within it there is fat, loose connective tissue, and the front and back vertebral venous plexuses. Also called extradural space. See subdural space.
The space between the dura and the bone of the vertebral canal.
the space lining the spinal column around the spinal cord.
The area between the membrane surrounding the spinal cord and the vertebral wall that is filled with fat and small blood vessels.
The narrow space situated between the dura mater and the bony skull or vertebral column.
In the spine, the epidural space is the space outside the tough membrane called the dura mater (sometimes called the "dura"), and within the spinal canal, which is formed by the surrounding vertebrae. Adherent to the inside of the dura is a much thinner and more fragile membrane, the arachnoid mater. Enclosed within the arachnoid is the subarachnoid space, which contains the cerebrospinal fluid, and the spinal cord.
