Veins
 Tend to branch from the venae cavae
 Veins draining the head and upper extremeties empty into the superior vena
cava
 Those draining the lower blood empty into the inferior vena cava
 Formed when venules converge
 Venules are formed when capillary beds unite
 Allow fluids and WBCs to pass from the bloodstream to tissues
 Veins have much lower blood pressure and thinner walls than arteries
 To return blood to the heart, veins have special adaptations
 Large-diameter lumens, which offer little resistance to flow
 Valves (resembling semilunar heart valves), which prevent backflow of blood
 Venous sinuses – specialized, flattened veins with extremely thin walls (e.g.,
coronary sinus of the heart and dural sinuses of the brain)
Veins Draining into the Inferior Vena
Cava
 Common iliac veins
 Drain venous blood from the legs and pelvis
 Internal iliac vein
 Drains the pelvis
 External iliac vein
 Receives venous blood from lower limb
 Anterior and posterior tibial veins
 Serve the calf and foot
 Dorsalis pedis vein extends from posterior tibial vein
 Posterior tibial vein is formed by the medial and lateral plantar veins
 Receives the fibular vein in calf and joins with the anterior tibial vein at knee
to make the popliteal vein
 Becomes the femoral vein
Veins Draining into the Inferior Vena
Cava
 Great saphenous vein
 Superficial vein
 Longest vein in the body
 Begins with small saphenous vein from the dorsal venous arch
 Extends up the medial side of the leg, knee, and thigh to the femoral vein
 Veins of the abdomen
 Lumbar veins
 Right and left gonadal (ovarian or testicular) veins
 Renal veins
 Drain the kidney
 Right and left suprarenal vein
 Drains into the superior vena cava
 Right and left hepatic veins
 Drain the liver
Veins Draining into the Superior Vena
Cava
 Veins draining into the superior vena cava are named from the
superior vena cava distally, BUT remember that the flow of blood is in
the opposite direction
 Veins in the head and neck
 Right and left brachiocephalic veins
 Drain the head, neck, and upper extremities
 Branches include the internal jugular, vertebral, and subclavian veins
 Jugular veins (internal and external)
 Drain sinuses of the brain
 Receive blood from the head and neck via superficial temporal and facial
veins
 Vertebral veins
 Drain posterior aspect of head including cervical vertebrae and spinal cord
 Subclavian veins
 Receives venous blood from upper extremity
Veins Draining into the Superior Vena
Cava
 Veins of the Upper Limb and Thorax
 Subclavian vein → axillary vein → brachial vein
 Brachial vein
 Formed from union of radial and ulnar veins of forearm
 Cephalic vein
 Drains the arm
 Basilic vein
 Located in medial aspect of arm and entering brachial vein and median cubital
vein
 Median antebrachial vein
 Between radial and ulnar veins
 Azygos vein
 Drains right side of thorax
 Entire system drains intercoastal muscles of thorax and provides another means
to drain abdominal wall
 Left ascending lumbar vein
 Accessory hemiazygos vein
