    The smallest cardiac veins (also known as the Thebesian veins (named for Adam Christian Thebesius) are small, valveless veins in the walls of all four heart chambers [1] that drain venous blood from the myocardium [2] directly into any of the heart chambers. [3] They are most abundant in the right atrium, and least abundant in the left ventricle.

    The heart is a muscular organ situated in the mediastinum.It consists of four chambers, four valves, two main arteries (the coronary arteries), and the conduction system. The left and right sides of the heart have different functions: the right side receives de-oxygenated blood through the superior and inferior venae cavae and pumps blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery, and the left ...

    The great cardiac vein (left coronary vein) is a vein of the heart.It begins at the apex of the heart and ascends along the anterior interventricular sulcus [1] before joining the oblique vein of the left atrium to form the coronary sinus [2] upon the posterior surface of the heart.

    The coronary sinus receives blood mainly from the small, middle, great, [2] and oblique cardiac veins. It also receives blood from the left marginal vein and the left posterior ventricular vein.

  9. Superior vena cava - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_vena_cava

    The superior vena cava (SVC) is the superior of the two venae cavae, the great venous trunks that return deoxygenated blood from the systemic circulation to the right atrium of the heart. It is a large-diameter (24 mm) short length vein that receives venous return from the upper half of the body, above the diaphragm.
