Online cme: upper extremity venous evaluation at cephalic vein
Cephalic Vein Thrombosis Prognosis the cephalic vein runs in the lateral side of the arm from the palm to the shoulder. Inside the shoulder, it pierces the tissues and removes the contents in the axillary vein. Following the cephalic vein joins the axillary vein, it becomes the subclavian vein and empties into the superior vena cava. In the bend of the shoulder, a medial cubital line of thinking rises from the cephalic vein and crosses over to the basilic vein. This kind of is the vein that is commonly used for liquid blood samples or to add fluids in the human body.
In human being anatomy, the Cephalic line of thinking (also referred to as antecubital vein) is a superficial vein in the arm. It communicates with the basilic vein with the median cubital train of thought at the elbow and is found in the succinct, pithy fascia over the anterolateral surface of the biscoteaux brachii muscle.
Nearby the arm, the cephalic vein passes between the deltoid and breasts muscle muscles (deltopectoral groove) and through the deltopectoral triangle, where it removes the contents in the axillary vein. Just like whatever we have described above, about the understanding of muscle now see the picture we have provided below :
