Lecture 21: Circulatory System-Venous Drainage Flashcards
where are superficial veins of brain collected?
dural sinus (venous channels btw tow layers of cranial dura mater)
where are deep veins of brain collected
great cerebral vein that drains into straight sinus
what does sigmoid sinus become as it crosses the jugular foramen
internal jugular vein
what are anterior and external jugular veins
superficial
receive venous blood of posterior scalp, neck. drain into subclavian vein
where does opthalmic vein drain
cavernous sinus. very deep
do venous sinuses have valveS?
no
vena comitans
“accompanying vein”
for an artery there is usually a pair of accompanying veins
are there superficial arteries?
no
- right subclavian
- right axillary
- right radial
- right brachial
- right ulnar
what are the 3 superficial veins of upper limb
- cephalic- btw deltoid and pectoral
- basilic- drains into axillary or subclavian and returns via SVC
- cubital- forearm
- R subclavian
- R axillary
- cephalic
- basilic
- median cubital
A
- femoral
- great saphenous
- anterior tibial
- posterior tibial
- fibular
- small saphenous
- popliteal
- small saphenous
where do deep veins of lower limb drain to
femoral vein (except gluteal region drain into internal iliac)
where does the great saphenous veni drain into
femoral
what does femoral vein become after passing deep to inguinal ligament
external iliac vein
what are the superficial veins of lower limb
great and small saphenous
what are deep veins of lower limbs
anterior/posterior tibial, fibular, popliteal, femoral
what does small saphenous vein drain into
popliteal. rnus laterally and posterioyl
what does great saphenous drain into
femoral. ascends medially
- SVC
- IVC
are veins equal on both sides?
no.
The ones on Right side are shorter
The ones on left side are longer because they have to cross midline to get to vena cavas
what forms the SVC
L and R brachipcephalic veins.
- brachiocephalic
- subclavian
- internal jugular
