The anatomy of the small saphenous vein: Fascial and neural relations, saphenofemoral junction, and valves  Gregor Schweighofer, MD, Dominic Mühlberger, MD, Erich Brenner, MD, PhD, MME  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 51, Issue 4, Pages 982-989 (April 2010) DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2009.08.094 Copyright © 2010 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 Different types of the saphenopopliteal junction (spj). Types A-C are labeled according to the UIP-consensus;10-12 we suggest to expand this typology by adding type “D” representing a doubled saphenopopliteal junction, and type “E” representing a web-style saphenopopliteal junction. pv, popliteal vein; ssv, short saphenous vein; te, thigh extension.

Fig 3 Web-style saphenopopliteal junction (type “E”). The short saphenous venin (SSV) is doubled itself (right margin), the upper portion continues up the thigh (TE); both portions are connected with several thin, regularly shaped veins with the PV. ssv, Short saphenous vein; te, thigh extension of the ssv; c, multiple connections of the ssv to the popliteal vein; tn, tibial nerve; fn, common fibular nerve.
