Arachnoidal granulations, Pacchionian bodies, a number of bulbous outgrowths or hernial protrusions of the arachnoidea; they are found especially on either side of the sagittal sinus, into the lumen of which they project, but also occur near the transverse sinus over the cerebellum and else where; they sometimes form depressions, foveolae granulares, on the under surface of the vault of the cranium.
