Document Summary

In the plantar aspect, or posterior, we have many tributaries forming venous arch. Veins are much more variable than arteries. Peroneal vein dumps into posterior tibial. , where posterior tibial and anterior tibial (cid:373)eet, that"s usually where popliteal will start. Popliteal vein will enter aductor canal, when it exits adductor canal, it turns into femoral vein femoral artery and vein are collectively in this fascial sheath called femoral sheath. They go under inguinal ligament, and when they get into pelvic area they change their name to common iliac. External iliac and internal join to form the common iliac vein. And those two will join around l5 / S1 to form inferior vena cava, and dump into right atrium of the heart. Superior and inferior gluteal veins, are big enough to be single veins, and dump into internal iliac. Fascial covering of femoral artery and vein, bringing them under inguinal ligament.
