Long saphenous vein and its anatomical variations
Vascular ultrasonography has an important role in the diagnosis and management of venous disease. The venous system, however, is more complex and variable compared to the arterial system due to its frequent anatomical variations. This often becomes quite challenging for sonographers. This paper discusses the anatomy of the long saphenous vein and its anatomical variations accompanied by sonogra...

متن کاملAnatomical Variations of the Right Adrenal Vein
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is currently considered the most frequent cause of secondary hypertension, with an estimated prevalence of ≈11% in hypertensive patients. Because a unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma can be cured by adrenalectomy and bilateral hyperaldosteronism is usually treated medically, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is necessary to provide a subtype diagnosis of PA. However...
متن کاملFascial relationships of the long saphenous vein.
The long saphenous vein runs constantly in a deep plane of the hypodermis, lying directly above the muscular fascia (Figure 1). It is covered for its full length by a connective lamina that descends from the inguinal ligament to the ankle in the hypodermis of the medial thigh and leg. This lamina, which is formed by the interlacing of the hypodermal connective sheets, until now has been only pa...
