Venous blood is drained from the glands by the suprarenal veins, usually one for each gland: [8] The right suprarenal vein drains into the inferior vena cava. The left suprarenal vein drains into the left renal vein or the left inferior phrenic vein. The central adrenomedullary vein, in the adrenal medulla, is an unusual type of blood vessel.

The suprarenal veins are two in number: . the right ends in the inferior vena cava.; the left ends in the left renal or left inferior phrenic vein.; They receive blood from the adrenal glands and will sometimes form anastomoses with the inferior phrenic veins.
It is located at the center of the gland, being surrounded by the adrenal cortex. [1] It is the innermost part of the adrenal gland, consisting of chromaffin cells that secrete catecholamines , including epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine (noradrenaline), and a small amount of dopamine , in response to stimulation by sympathetic ...

The adrenal arteries are arteries in the human abdomen that supply blood to the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands receive input from three different arteries on both the left and right sides of the body: superior suprarenal artery branching from the inferior phrenic artery; middle suprarenal artery branching from the abdominal aorta

Each vessel gives off some small inferior suprarenal branches to the suprarenal gland, the ureter, and the surrounding cellular tissue and muscles. One or two accessory renal arteries are frequently found, especially on the left side since they usually arise from the aorta, and may come off above (more common) or below the main artery.
