2022年11月28日 · The main superficial veins of the upper limb include the cephalic and basilic veins. These veins originate from the dorsal venous plexus within the subcutaneous tissue of the hand. Deep veins of the upper limb lie deep to the brachial fascia (deep fascia of the arm) and accompany the major arteries of the upper limb. As a result they usually ...

2023年4月21日 · The venous drainage of the upper limb is highly variable, however the anatomy by which the veins drain the upper limb can be broadly divided into superficial and deep venous systems1. Similar to those in the lower limbs, the deep veins are usually paired and run either side of the arteries, termed venae comitantes 1.

2023年10月14日 · The venous system of the upper limb drains deoxygenated blood from the arm, forearm and hand. It can be subdivided into the superficial system and the deep system. In this article, we shall look at the anatomy of the upper limb veins – their anatomical course, structure, and their clinical relevance.

2023年8月14日 · The veins in the upper extremity drain the deoxygenated blood. The drainage of blood allows for oxygenated blood to flow into the upper extremity. The veins do not perfuse the upper extremity with blood. The lymphatics of the upper extremity follows closely with the veins. The lymphatics drainage start at the hand and drains toward the heart.

Simplified illustration of the major superficial veins of the upper limb. See articles for more information.

2023年11月3日 · In this page, we are going to discuss the arteries, veins and nerves of each upper limb region; the shoulder, arm, forearm and hand. All together these form the neurovascular compartment of the upper limb. The nerves of the upper limb originate from the brachial plexus and include the musculocutaneous, axillary, median, radial and ulnar nerves.

Venous anatomy of the upper limb. In upper limbs, venous drainage occurs in two main systems: superficial and deep venous systems. 12. The deep venous system’s veins are located alongside the main trunk arteries and bear the same corresponding names (radial, ulnar, brachial, axillary and subclavian veins), usually in even numbers, so that two ...

Veins of the upper limb are blood vessels that drain deoxygenated blood from the tissue of the arm, forearm, and hand, and return it to the right atrium of the heart and the systemic circulation. The blood vessels providing venous drainage from the upper limb can be divided into superficial veins and deep veins .

Veins of the upper limb are blood vessels that drain deoxygenated blood from the tissue of the arm, forearm, and hand and return it to the right atrium of the heart and the systemic circulation. The blood vessels providing venous drainage from the upper limb can be categorized into two groups - the superficial veins and deep veins .

2023年6月5日 · Detailed knowledge of the venous anatomy of the upper limb is of great help when finding appropriate veins. There is a great deal of variation in the superficial venous anatomy of the upper limb, however the basilic and cephalic veins are relatively consistent landmarks, and reliably found.
