  1. THE VEINS • Introduction • The Pulmonary Veins • The Systematic Veins

  2. Veins normally accompany arteries and often have similar names. Veins are always larger than the arteries and are sometimes more visible than arteries because they are closer to the skin surface. Most veins eventually empty the un-oxygenated blood into the vena cavas.

  3. The Veins General feature • Thin walls, larger lumens, venous valves, venous plexus, venous rete • Two sets • Superficial vein • Deep veins • Special structures: • Sinuses of dura mater • Diploic veins

  4. The Veins Composition • The pulmonary veins • R. & L. superior & inferior pulmonary veins → left atrium • The systemic veins • Superior vena cava system • Inferior vena cava system (hepatic portalsystem ) • Cardiac vein system • →right atrium

  5. The head, neck, upper limb and the thoracic cavity return blood toto the right atrium of the heart via the superior vena cava. The lowerlimb,abdominal and plevis cavity return blood to the right atrium of the heart via the inferior venacava.

  6. Before blood is returned to the heart from the stomach, pancreas, small intestine, and spleen, it goes through the liver for filtration.

  7. This portion of this part of systemic system is known as the hepatic portal system. The gastric vein (stomach), splenicvein (spleen), pancreaticvein (pancreas), and mesentericveins (small intestines) empty into the portal vein that carries the blood to the liver.

  8. In the liver, the portal vein branches into smaller venules and finally into capillary beds. In the capillary beds of the liver, nutrients are exchanged for storage and the blood is purified. The capillaries then join into venules that empty into the hepatic vein, which carries blood to the inferior vena cava.

  9. A. Introduction The Recurrent Factors of the Blood in Veins The venous valves. The dilation of the ventricles of the heart. The negative pressure of the thoracic cavity. The movements of the viscera. The impulses of the artery. the continuous blood flow from capillaries.
