Veins · TrunkLeft renal veinVena renalis sinistraThe long vein draining the left kidney, which crosses in front of the aorta below the superior mesenteric artery to reach the inferior vena cava.
Veins · TrunkLeft subclavian veinVena subclavia sinistraA large vein at the root of the neck carrying blood from the left upper limb, and receiving the thoracic duct at its junction.
Veins · TrunkLeft subcostal veinVena subcostalis sinistraThe vein running along the lower border of the left twelfth rib, which joins the left ascending lumbar vein to form the hemiazygos vein.
Veins · TrunkLeft superior intercostal veinVena intercostalis superior sinistraA vein formed by the upper left posterior intercostal veins that crosses the aortic arch to end in the left brachiocephalic vein.
Veins · TrunkLeft superior pulmonary veinVena pulmonalis sinistra superiorThe vein bringing oxygenated blood from the upper lobe and lingula of the left lung to the left atrium.
Veins · HeadLingual veinVena lingualisThe vein draining the tongue, formed below and behind it and ending in the internal jugular vein in the neck.
Veins · TrunkLumbar veinsVenae lumbalesSegmental veins of the posterior abdominal wall that run with the lumbar arteries and empty into the inferior vena cava and ascending lumbar veins.
Veins · HeadMaxillary veinsVenae maxillaresA short venous trunk behind the neck of the mandible that carries blood from the pterygoid plexus to the retromandibular vein.
Veins · Lower limbMedial circumflex femoral veinsVenae circumflexae medialesPaired deep veins of the upper thigh that travel with the medial circumflex femoral artery around the back of the femur.
Veins · FootMedial plantar veinsVenae plantares medialesDeep veins along the medial side of the sole that accompany the medial plantar artery and help form the posterior tibial veins.
Veins · Upper limbMedian antebrachial veinVena mediana antebrachiiA superficial vein running up the middle of the anterior forearm from the palm towards the elbow.
Veins · Upper limbMedian cubital veinVena mediana cubitiA short superficial vein crossing the front of the elbow that links the cephalic vein to the basilic vein.
