Orientation and property of fibers of the myodural bridge in human

Studies over the last 20 years have revealed that there are fibrous connective tissues between the suboccipital muscles, nuchal ligament and cervical spinal dura mater(SDM). This fibrous connection with the SDM is through the posterior atlanto-occipital and/or atlanto-axial interspaces and is called the Myodural Bridge(MDB). Researches have inferred that the MDB might have important functions. It was speculated that the function of MDB might be related to proprioception transmission, keeping the subarachnoid space and the cerebellomedullary cistern unobstructed, and affecting the dynamic circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
