the knowledge of variations in the superficial veins is of clinical importance for the anatomist, radiologists, clinical practitioners and surgeons in order to plan about the operative procedures. usually cephalic vein drains into the axillary vein. in this case report study the left cephalic vein communicates with the left external jugular vein and made a common trunk at the superior surface o...

Background Radiofrequency ablation of varicose vein have gained popularity compared to conventional surgery due to comparable long term results in addition to definite immediate superiorities. This modality has been started in Nepal since August 2003 and the study on short term fate of ablated vein segment confirms the anatomical benefit in addition to the clinical benefit. Objective To analyze...

The Suyoc prospect is an epithermal vein-type mineralization located at the southern part of Mankayan Mineral District, Northern Luzon, Philippines. prospect’s veins are hosted in volcaniclastic rocks and conglomerate, which belong to Late Oligocene Early Miocene Balili Formation Middle Conglomerate, respectively. These classified into three major types: quartz vein, quartz-sulfide quartz-carbo...

BACKGROUND Diabetes is an independent risk factor for the development of neointimal hyperplasia and subsequent vein graft failure after coronary or peripheral artery bypass grafting. We evaluate a new mouse model of surgical vein grafting to investigate the mechanisms of neointimal formation in the setting of type 2 diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS Surgical vein grafts were created by inserting ...

total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (tapvc) is an anomaly in which the pulmonary veins are directly connected to one of the systemic veins or drain into the right atrium. management of pulmonary hypertension after the total correction of this congenital cardiac anomaly is very important. unligation of the vertical vein in the supracardiac type of this anomaly can be a draining pathway f...

The clinical manifestations of dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) are highly variable and dependent on the hemodynamic properties location fistula. locations fistula numerous include cavernous sinus, transverse–sigmoid superior sagittal inferior petrosal sinuses, anterior condylar confluence, tentorium, cranial fossa, middle foramen magnum, cranio-cervical junction, convexity, spinal cord. Th...

Kidney, ureter, kidney artery, and kidney vein tissue were obtained from a single human transplant specimen. The donors erythrocyte blood group phenotype was AILe(a-b+). Total non-acid glycolipid fractions were isolated and individual glycolipid components were identified by immunostaining thin layer plates with a panel of monoclonal antibodies and by mass spectrometry of the permethylated and ...

OBJECTIVE Previous studies have suggested that neointimal formation, a central cause of vein graft stenosis, has several potential cell sources. It was hypothesized that neointimal cells arise primarily from the cells of the vein graft. METHODS AND RESULTS This study investigated vein graft neointimal cell origins using a model of vein-to-artery cross-transplantation between transgenic Rosa26...
