Abstract:
Objective To provide regional anatomical data for clinical application through observing the type, length and diameter of variation in the medial cubital vein of upper limb. Methods Dissected the medial cubital vein of upper limb in 35 (70 sides) adult cadavers (male 38, female 7), and observed the morphological structure. The length and vessel diameter of the medial cubital vein were measured. Results The variation of the medial cubital vein of upper limb was divided into six type. TypeⅠincluded 29 cases (41. 43%) of male and 8 cases (11. 43%) of female;Type Ⅱ included 14 cases (20. 00%) of male and 4 cases (5. 71%) of female;Type Ⅲ included 7 cases (10. 00%) of male and 2 cases (2. 86%) of female;TypeⅣincluded 3 cases (4. 29%) of male and 0 cases of female;TypeⅤincluded 2 cases (2. 86%) of male and 0 cases of female;TypeⅥincluded 1 cases (1. 43%) male and 0 cases of female. Conclusion This study enriched anthropology data of the medial cubital vein and it has the role of guiding in clinical applications.
