Bone: Condyloid canal
Occipital bone. Outer surface. (Condyloid canal visible at center left.)
Base of the skull. Upper surface. (Condyloid canal not labeled, the occipital bone is visible at the bottom in blue, and the condyloid foramen is labeled at left, third from the bottom.)
Latin canalis condylaris

The condylar canal (or condyloid canal) is a canal in the condyloid fossa of the lateral parts of occipital bone behind the occipital condyle.

Through it the occipital emissary vein passes from the transverse sinus.

It is not always present.

Base of skull. Inferior surface.

and too the menangeal branch of ascending pharyngeal passed from condylar canal
