Major body Veins Khaleel Alyahya khaleel@saudiforum.us Saturday January 30, 2010

veins Veins are blood vessels that bring blood to the heart. All veins, with the exception of the pulmonary and umbilical veins, carry deoxygenated blood. There are two types of veins: Superficial veins: close to the surface of the body with NO corresponding arteries. Deep veins: found deeper in the body with corresponding arteries. Veins of the systemic circulation: Superior and inferior vena cava with their tributaries. Veins of the portal circulation: Portal vein Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Superior vena cava Formed by the union of the right and left brachiocephalic veins. Brachiocephalic veins are formed by the union of internal jugular and subclavian veins. Drains venous blood from head, neck, thoracic wall and upper limbs Passes downward and enter the right atrium. Receives azygos vein on the posterior aspect just before it enters the heart. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Veins of head & neck Superficial Veins Deep Veins Two divisions: External Jugular veins Anterior jugular veins Deep Veins Internal Jugulars External jugular vein Internal jugular vein Anterior jugular vein Subclavian vein Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Superficial Veins of head & neck External Jugular veins Lies superficial to the sternocleidomastoid muscle External jugular vein drains blood from the outside of the skull and the deep parts of the face. Passes down the neck and drains into the subclavian vein. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Superficial Veins of head & neck Anterior jugular veins It begins in the upper part of the neck by the confluence of several superficial veins It descends along the median line of the neck, medial to sternocleidomastoid muscle. At the lower part of the neck, passes beneath that muscle to drain into the external jugular vein Just above the sternum the two anterior jugular veins communicate by a transverse vein and form the jugular arch Jugular arch Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Deep Veins of head & neck Internal Jugulars Drains blood from the head, brain, face and neck. It descends in the neck along with the internal and common carotid arteries and vagus nerve, within the carotid sheath. Joins the subclavian vein to form the brachiocephalic vein. Tributaries: Superior thyroid, lingual, facial, occipital veins and dural venous sinuses Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Veins of upper limb Superficial Veins Deep Veins Two divisions: Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Veins of upper limb Superficial Veins Cephalic vein ascends in the superficial fascia on the lateral side of the biceps and drains into the axillary vein. Basilic vein ascends in the superficial fascia on the medial side of the biceps. halfway up the arm, it pierces the deep fascia at the lower border of the teres major joins the venae commitantes of the brachial artery to form the axillary vein. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Vena commitantes of brachial artery Veins of upper limb Deep Veins Venae commitantes which accompany all the large arteries, usually in pairs. Axillary vein formed by the union of basilic vein and the venae commitantes of the brachial artery. Basilic vein Axillary vein Vena commitantes of brachial artery Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Inferior vena cava Drains most of the blood from the body below the diaphragm to the right atrium of the heart. Formed by the union of the common iliac veins behind the right common iliac artery at the level of the 5th lumbar vertebra. Ascends on the right side of the aorta Pierces the central tendon of the diaphragm at the level of the 8th thoracic vertebra Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Tributaries of Inferior vena cava Two common iliac veins Median sacral vein Four paired lumbar veins Right testicular or ovarian vein (the left vein drains into the left renal vein) Paired renal veins Right suprarenal vein (the left vein drains into the left renal vein) Hepatic veins Paired inferior phrenic vein Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Veins of lower limb Superficial Veins Deep Veins Two divisions: Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Veins of lower limb Superficial Veins Form a network in the subcutaneous tissue Pattern is variable Are essentially the tributaries of the: great (long) saphenous vein small (short) saphenous vein Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Great saphenous vein The longest vein. Begins as upward continuation of the dorsal venous arch of the foot. Passes upward directly in front of the medial malleolus with the saphenous nerve anterior to it. Then ascends in company with the saphenous nerve in the superficial fascia over the medial side of the leg. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Great saphenous vein Ascends obliquely upwards, and lies a hand’s breadth behind the medial border of the patella Passes behind the knee and curves forward around the medial side of the thigh. Passes through the lower part of the saphenous opening in the deep fascia and joins the femoral vein about 1.5 in. (4 cm) below and lateral to the pubic tubercle Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Great saphenous vein Is connected to the small saphenous vein by one or two branches that pass behind the knee. Anastomose freely with small saphenous vein Numerous perforating veins connect the great saphenous vein with the deep veins. The perforating veins have valves which allow blood flow from superficial to deep veins. The great saphenous vein is used in venous grafting and saphenous cutdown (take care of the saphenous nerve) Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Small saphenous vein Arises from the lateral part of the dorsal venous arch of the foot. Ascends behind the lateral malleolus in company with the sural nerve. Follows the lateral border of the tendocalcaneus and then runs up the middle of the back of the leg. Pierces the deep fascia in the lower part of the popliteal fossa Drains into the popliteal vein Has numerous valves along its course. Anastomosis freely with great saphenous vein. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

Veins of lower limb Deep Veins Comprise the venae comitantes, which accompany all the large arteries, usually in pairs. Venae comitantes unite to form the popliteal vein, which continues as the femoral vein Receive blood from superficial veins through perforating veins External iliac vein Femoral vein Popliteal vein Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

MECHANISM OF VENOUS RETURN FROM LOWER LIMBS Much of the saphenous blood passes from superficial to deep veins through the perforating veins The blood is pumped upwards in the deep veins by the contraction of the calf muscles (calf pump). This action of ‘calf pump’ is assisted by the tight sleeve of deep fascia surrounding these muscles. Vericose veins: If the valves in the perforating veins become incompetent, the direction of blood flow is reversed and the veins become varicosed. Most common in posterior & medial parts of the lower limb, particularly in old people. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

PORTAL CIRCULATION A portal venous system is a series of veins or venules that directly connect two capillary beds. Examples of such systems include the hepatic portal vein and hypophseal portal system. Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

HEPATIC PORTAL VEIN Drains blood from the gastrointestinal tract and spleen It is usually formed by the union of the superior mesenteric and splenic veins. Immediately before reaching the liver, the portal vein divides into right and left that enter the liver. Tributaries: Gastric and cystic veins Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

PORTOCAVAL ANASTOMOSIS A portacaval anastomosis (also known as portal systemic anastomosis) is a specific type of anastomosis that occurs between the veins of portal circulation and those of systemic circulation. The anastomotic channels become dilated (varicosed) in case of portal hypertension Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd

SITES OF PORTOCAVAL ANASTOMOSIS Lower end of esophagus: left gastric vein & azygos vein Lower part of rectum: (Hemorrhoids) superior and middle rectal veins & inferior rectal vein Paraumbilical region: (Caput medusae) Paraumbilical veins & superficial epigastric vein Retroperitoneal: Veins draining colon & veins of the posterior abdominal wall Patent ductus venosus: Left branch of portal vein & inferior vena cava Khaleel Alyahya, PhD, MEd
