Overview of Major Veins in the Head, Neck, Brain, and Lower Limbs

This comprehensive guide details the anatomy and flow of major veins, highlighting key vessels in the head, neck, brain, and lower limbs. It covers the superior vena cava, brachiocephalic veins, and their tributaries like the internal and external jugular veins. The structure of veins in the upper limbs is also discussed, including the axillary, basilic, and median cubital veins. The guide further explores the venous drainage of the abdomen and lower limbs, detailing major veins such as the femoral, popliteal, and great saphenous veins, emphasizing their connections and functions.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Cardiovascular: Major Veins

  2. Head, Neck, and Brain

  3. Superior Vena Cava

  4. Brachiocephalic v. (R/L) Left and right brachiocephalic veins flow into the superior vena cava

  5. Vertebral v. (R/L) Vertebral v. drains directly into brachiocephalic v.

  6. Internal jugular v. (R/L) Internal jugulars drain into the brachiocephalic veins

  7. External jugular v. (R/L) External jugulars flow directly into the brachiocephalic veins

  8. Subclavian v. (R/L) Subclavians unite with internal jugulars and drain into brachiocephalic veins

  9. Shoulder & Upper Limb

  10. Cephalic v. (R/L) Begins at the venous arch and flows up the arm to drain into the subclavian vein

  11. Axillary v. (R/L) Axillary vein drains into subclavian vein at the first rib

  12. Basilic v. (R/L) Basilic vein begins at the venous arch, joins the brachial vein and drains into axillary vein

  13. Median cubital v. (R/L) Median cubital vein flows into the basilic vein

  14. Brachial v. (R/L) Brachial vein joins the basilic and drains into the axillary

  15. Radial v. and Ulnar v. (R/L) Radial Ulnar Radial and Ulnar veins join at the bend of the elbow and flow into the brachial vein

  16. Abdominal Viscera (Internal Organs)

  17. Inferior Vena cava

  18. Hepatic v.

  19. Suprarenal v. (R/L)

  20. Renal v. (R/L)

  21. Lower Limbs & Pelvis

  22. Common iliac v. (R/L)

  23. Internal iliac v. (R/L) Internal iliac joins the external iliac and drains into the common iliac

  24. External iliac v. (R/L)

  25. Femoral v. (R/L) Femoral vein drains into external iliac (cut)

  26. Great Saphenous v. (R/L) Longest vein in the body!

  27. Popliteal v. (R/L) Popliteal vein is located behind the knee and drains into the femoral vein

  28. Anterior tibial v. (R/L) Deep vein that drains into the popliteal and then the femoral. Extends between the tibia and fibula

  29. Posterior tibial v. (R/L) Deep vein that unites with the anterior tibial vein and flows into the popliteal

  30. Dorsalispedis v. (R/L)
