1 Cardiovascular: Major Veins

2 Head, Neck, and Brain

3 Superior Vena Cava

4 Brachiocephalic v. (R/L)
Left and right brachiocephalic veins flow into the superior vena cava

5 Vertebral v. (R/L) Vertebral v. drains directly into brachiocephalic v.

6 Internal jugular v. (R/L)
Internal jugulars drain into the brachiocephalic veins

7 External jugular v. (R/L)
External jugulars flow directly into the brachiocephalic veins

8 Subclavian v. (R/L) Subclavians unite with internal jugulars and drain into brachiocephalic veins

9 Shoulder & Upper Limb

10 Cephalic v. (R/L) Begins at the venous arch and flows up the arm to drain into the subclavian vein

11 Axillary v. (R/L) Axillary vein drains into subclavian vein at the first rib

12 Basilic v. (R/L) Basilic vein begins at the venous arch, joins the brachial vein and drains into axillary vein

13 Median cubital v. (R/L) Median cubital vein flows into the basilic vein

14 Brachial v. (R/L) Brachial vein joins the basilic and drains into the axillary

15 Radial v. and Ulnar v. (R/L)
Radial and Ulnar veins join at the bend of the elbow and flow into the brachial vein

16 Abdominal Viscera (Internal Organs)

17 Inferior Vena cava

18 Hepatic v.

19 Suprarenal v. (R/L)

20 Renal v. (R/L)

21 Lower Limbs & Pelvis

22 Common iliac v. (R/L)

23 Internal iliac v. (R/L) Internal iliac joins the external iliac and drains into the common iliac

24 External iliac v. (R/L)

25 Femoral v. (R/L) Femoral vein drains into external iliac (cut)

26 Great Saphenous v. (R/L)
Longest vein in the body!

27 Popliteal v. (R/L) Popliteal vein is located behind the knee and drains into the femoral vein

28 Anterior tibial v. (R/L)
Deep vein that drains into the popliteal and then the femoral. Extends between the tibia and fibula

29 Posterior tibial v. (R/L)
Deep vein that unites with the anterior tibial vein and flows into the popliteal

30 Dorsalis pedis v. (R/L)
