UNDIVIDED RETROMANDIBULAR VEIN AND ABSENT EXTERNAL JUGULAR VEIN-A CASE REPORT.
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
The external jugular vein normally drains the scalp and face region of the body. However, various type of variations in the drainage system of head and neck may be there which are important from academic and clinical point of view During routine dissection of head and neck region in 80 years old male cadaver, a unilateral variation in the venous drainage system was observed on right side of neck. The right retromandibular vein had no divisions and it directly forms the common venous trunk with the linguofacial venous trunk and drains into the right internal jugular vein. The knowledge of such venous variations is of great concern to clinicians, surgeons, anaesthetists and radiologists who are dealing with this region.
