Chapter 22- VENOUS anatomy Flashcards
What are venae comitantes?
a pair of veins that usually closely found with an artery
think of ptvs/ant tibs
The peripheral veins return deoxygenated blood to the heart through which of the chambers?
RA, LA, RV, LV ?
Right atrium
The deep system of veins carry 85-90% of blood out of the limb.
True or False?
yes True
Deep system drains the muscular layer and superficial veins via which veins?
the perforating veins
The deep system drains into the superficial veins
True or False
FALSE. The superficial drain into the deep.
What do the perforating veins do?
connect the deep system to the superficial system
These veins drain the posterior lateral part of the leg `
peroneals
The PTVs are formed by the plantar metatarsal veins
True or False
True
Drains the posterior medial part of leg
PTV
formed by the continuation of the dorsalis pedis veins
anterior tibial veins
The gastrocnemius veins join the ____ vein
popliteal
which veins drain into the calf veins
soleal veins
formed by the union of the anterior tibial veins and the tibial peroneal trunk
popliteal vein
The femoral vein is a continuation of which vein?
popliteal
At which point does the popliteal end and the SFV begins/
at the adductor hiatus
At which point does the SFV terminate?
in the scarpa’s triangle
Profunda ascends deep and lateral to femoral vein. It meets with the SFV to form the??
CFV
The CFV becomes the external iliac vein and joins with the ____ vein to become the common iliac veins
Internal iliac vein
drains the pelvis (which vessel)
internal iliac vein
formed by the common iliac veins
IVC
What is the iliac compression syndrome commonly called?
VERY IMPORTANT
May-Thurner Syndrome
In the occurence of May-Thurner Syndrome, is the left or right common iliac more common to get a DVT?
the left because it passes between the right common iliac and the spine and can create obstruction
What are the two superficial venous veins?
the GSV and SSV.
Do superficial veins usually have an accompanying artery?
NO
What is the LONGEST VEIN in the body?
Greater Saph Vein (GSV) ( goes from foot to the CFV to form the SFJ
Both superficial veins have their own fascial compartment
True or FAlse
True
carry blood from the superficial veins to the deep veins
Perforating veins (they PERFORATE the fascia)
The perforators of the femoral canal used to be called the ____ perforators
Important!!!
Dodd ** on test
The perforators of the paratibial cancal used to be called ___ , ______
Boyd, Sherman ** on test*
** Think BOYD, Sherman the back of my knee hurts, does yours?”
The Posterior tibial perforators used to be called the ___
Cockett **on test
PROXIMAL veins are the closest to the heart and DISTAL is the furthest away from the heart.
The foot is considered ____, whereas the IVC is considered _____.
Distal/proximal
Foot is distal and IVC proximal
empties the lateral hand and forearm
closer to thumb
Radial
The radial vein is created in the formation of the ___ palmar arch
(Deep or superficial)
Deep
empties the medial hand and forearm
pinky
Ulnar
formed by union of the radial and ulnar veins
Brachial veins
Axillary vein is created by the union of what two veins?
brachial and basilic
formed by the union of the axillary vein and cephalic vein
Subclavian Vein
The innominate vein is also called the
brachiocephalic
The innominate vein is formed by the confluence of what two veins?
subclavian vein and IJVs
What are the two superficial veins of the arm anatomy?
Basilic and Cephalic vein
This superficial vein empties into the MEDIAL aspect of arm
basilic vein
This superficial vein drains the LATERAL aspect of the arm
cephalic
The cephalic vein joins the axillary vein to form the ____ vein
subclavian
The basilic vein joins the brachials to form the ____ vein
axillary
Both the SVC and the IVC terminate at the right atrium.
The SVC drains what part of body?
SVC drains the upper half of the body
The IVC drains what part of the body?
Lower half of the body.
The portal vein is formed by what two veins
Splenic vein and SMV
drains the digestive tract, pancreas, spleen and GB.
Portal vein.
These veins DRAIN the liver
Hepatic vein
This “vein” feeds the liver
Portal Vein
The valves of the ___ extremities are more suspectible to disease. Why is this?
Lower/Upper
Lower…theres more of them in the lower half of body then upper.
Which three veins do not have valves?
SVC, IVC, and innominate
Soleal veins have paired arteries. True or False
False, soleal veins are not accompanied by arteries
Gastrocnemius veins have a companion artery. True OR False
True
