[Special topographical relations between small arteries and the vena saphena magna at the region of the junction with the vena femoralis (author's transl)].

We investigated the topography between small arteries and the proximal Vena saphena magna after observations and extractions of specimens made during variectomies. Moreover we studied this region by anatomical preparation. During an operation a small artery with transvenous course had been observed. The obtained specimen were examined histologically. The developmental mechanism of such an unusual course of an artery is discussed.
