The venous plexus of hypoglossal canal[Note 1] is a small venous plexus surrounding the hypoglossal nerve (cranial nerve XII)[1] as it passes through the hypoglossal canal.[3][4][5][better source needed] The plexus connects with the occipital sinus (intercranially), inferior petrosal sinus (intercranially), internal jugular vein (extracranially),[1] condylar vein, and paravertebral venous plexus.[5][better source needed]
