Q

How does chronic venous insufficiency lead to venous ulceration?

A

Blood vessels become damaged due to increased venous pressure, the skin becomes dry and inflamed, skin cannot heal well due to poor blood supply so skin begins to break down

33
Q

Where do the deep lymphatics of the lower limb drain into?

A

Popliteal lymph nodes

34
Q

What are the superficial veins?

Smaller, thinner veins that run in the superficial fascia and drain into deep veins by piercing deep fascia

35
Q

Describe the pathways of the lymphatics of the upper and lower limbs

Q

What are the deep veins?

A

Larger and thicker veins that run deep to deep fascia

44
Q

Describe the pathway of superficial lymphatics that follow the basilic vein

Pass to the superficial inguinal lymph nodes, and then to either the external iliac or deep inguinal lymph nodes

48
Q

Name the artery indicated by the arrow

A

Deep femoral artery

49
Q

Where do the deep lymphatics of the upper limb drain into?
