We report an unusual and multiple variation involving the right head and neck veins which were found during routine dissection in a 50-year-old male cadaver, facial vein draining into both external and internal jugular veins, fenestration in external jugular vein transmitting the supraclavicular nerve trunk, the anterior division of the retromandibular vein draining into anterior jugular vein and the absence of the common facial vein. The knowledge about these variations is important during various surgical and diagnostic procedures involving head and neck region.
我们报告了一例不寻常的多处变异,涉及一名50岁男性尸体常规解剖时发现的右侧头颈部静脉,面静脉汇入颈外静脉和颈内静脉,颈外静脉有开窗使锁骨上神经干通过,下颌后静脉前支汇入颈前静脉,且面总静脉缺如。了解这些变异在涉及头颈部区域的各种手术和诊断操作中很重要。
