For insertion of totally implantable access ports, with the catheter end in the superior vena cava, the percutaneous (Seldinger) technique is commonly used. Of cutdowns, the cephalic vein cutdown is the most popular one (success rate about 80%), followed by the external jugular vein cutdown. Our preliminary experience suggests that internal jugular vein and basilic vein cutdowns have the anatomic features to prove both of them superior to the cephalic vein cutdown.

AbstractNeck veins are important for various diagnostic, therapeutic and experimental procedures. So knowledge of their anatomical variation is also important. The author reports an unusual site of formation of brachiocephalic vein with multiple venous anomalies in the neck. A rare site of formation of the right brachiocephalic vein was found at the middle of neck under the right sternocleido mastoid muscle by union of right internal jugular and subclavian vein. Another observation was of facial, lingual and superior thyroid veins joined together and formed a common vein over the sternocleidomastoid muscle that drained into the external jugular vein. This unusual course of brachiocephalic vein and aberrant drainage of facial, lingual and superior thyroid veins may cause unusual bleeding during surgeries and invasive procedures. So clinicians should be aware of these variations of major neck veins to avoid complications.

To date, no studies have explored the effect of abnormal cerebral venous circulation on brain disorders, whereas many studies have investigated neurodegenerative brain anomalies associated with arterial diseases. The aim of our study was to demonstrate the feasibility of different surgical techniques to induce venous obstruction of cerebral brain drainage. Six C57/black mice underwent bilateral occlusion of the external jugular vein (group EJV), six underwent bilateral occlusion of the internal jugular vein (group IJV), and six underwent bilateral occlusion of both the EJV and the IJV (group EJV/IJV). Within each group, the interruption of blood flow was obtained via monopolar electro-coagulation (ME) in three mice and via surgical ligation (SL) in the remaining three mice. A “sham group” of two mice was used as the control. High-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) was used to detect the absence of blood flow in the examined vessel. The ME procedure led to successful results in two of nine (22%) mice, one in the EJV group, one in the EJV/IJV group, and zero in the IJV group, and 4 of 18 (22%) mice when considering individual veins (i.e., total number of EJVs and IJVs occluded). The SL procedure was successful in two of three (67%) mice in the EJV group, in three of three (100%) mice in the IJV and in three of four (75%) mice in the EJV/ IJV group. Therefore, the overall success rate was 8/10 (80%) when considering mice, and 20/26 (77%) when considering individual veins. The monopolar electro-coagulation method exhibited a high mortality due to cardiorespiratory arrest, while the results of the bilateral surgical ligation of EJVs and IJVs show that it is technically feasible and safe.

Multiple variations on the right side of the neck of a 65-year-old male cadaver were observed during a routine dissection. The cadaver had no sign of facial trauma or previous surgery. The facial vein had a communicating branch with the internal jugular vein and distally drained into the jugulo-subclavian confluence via a common trunk with external jugular vein. Other superficial veins of the neck drained into the brachiocephalic vein separately. On the contrary, no anatomical variation was observed on the left side. Even if the variations of the head and neck are common, more than one variation in a single cadaver unilaterally is remarkable. We suggest that it is important for surgeons to examine the patients with ultrasound before any clinical interventions on the neck to determine the possible variations beforehand.
