Within the upper limb there are two sets of veins: deep veins that accompany the arteries, and superfi cial veins that course

through the hypodermis without arterial counterparts. The deep veins, running with the arteries of the upper limb, have the

same names as their arterial counterparts. These veins are signifi cantly smaller than the arteries they accompany and form

vena comitans with anastomotic channels around the arteries. The superfi cial veins of the upper limb are large and numerous.

There are three major superfi cial veins into which all the other superfi cial veins fl ow; they are the basilic vein, cephalic vein,

and median cubital vein. The median cubital vein is a connecting vein between the cephalic vein and the basilic vein. The

cephalic and basilic veins eventually pass deep to join the axillary vein at the proximal end of the limb. Most of the venous

return from the upper limb passes through the superfi cial veins.

The branches of the aorta that supply the thoracic

region can be divided into two principal groups —

those that supply the thoracic body wall and those

Thoracic Vessels

that supply thoracic viscera. Two arterial supply routes carry blood into the thoracic body wall. Posteriorly the aorta courses vertically down the vertebral column, while anteriorly the internal thoracic

arteries arise from the subclavian arteries and course vertically down the inside of the sternum.

Between these anterior and posterior supply arteries are interconnecting collateral arteries. These

collateral vessels are the anterior intercostal arteries and the posterior intercostal arteries, which supply the tissues of the intercostal spaces and form collateral circuits between the anterior and posterior arterial pathways. All thoracic viscera receive their blood supply from branches of the aorta. The

thoracic viscera include the heart, lungs with their associated bronchial tubes, and the esophagus.

Like the arterial supply to the thoracic wall, the venous drainage returns via both anterior-wall and posterior-wall drainage

veins. The veins of the anterior wall have the same names as their arterial counterparts, while the veins of the posterior wall

differ in name and structure. Unlike the aorta, which is the posterior-wall supply artery, the superior vena cava and inferior

vena cava diverge from the posterior thoracic wall to enter the thoracic cavity and return their contents to the heart. In the

absence of vena cavae in the posterior thoracic wall, an azygos system of veins is formed to drain the body wall and the

thoracic viscera. These azygos veins communicate with the superior vena cava to return their contents to the heart. With

the exception of the azygos veins, the veins are similar to the arteries in name and distribution.

Like the thorax, the abdomen has somatic ar- Abdominal Vessels

teries that supply the abdominal muscle wall

and visceral arteries that supply the viscera of the abdominal cavity. These vessels follow the same

pattern observed in the thoracic region; that is, the abdominal body wall has both anterior (epigastric

arteries) and posterior (aorta) supply pathways that form interconnecting collateral arteries, while the

viscera receive branches from the aorta — celiac artery to the foregut, superior mesenteric artery to

the midgut, inferior mesenteric artery to the hindgut, and renal arteries to the kidneys.
