The patterns of 5 tributaries draining into the great saphenous vein were stuided in 33 cases of Korean adult female cadavers from 20 to 88 years of age (average age, 64).
1. Each tributaries emptied separately into the great saphenous vein in 12.1 To (left: 7.6right:
4.5%). t
2. The superficial epigastric vein and the superficial circumflex iliac vein joined to form a single
trunk draining into the great saphenous vein in 18:217o. The incidences were equal in the both
~N
sides.
f, 3. The lateral accessary saphenous vein and the superficial circumflex iliac vein joined to form a single trunk draining into the great sapheous vein in 12.117o (Ieft: 7.6%, right: 4.57o).
- 4. The superficial external pudendal vein and the superficial epigastric vein joined to form a single
trunk draining into the great saphenous vein in 1.5% (only in right side
r 5. The superficial external pudendal vein and the medial accessory saphenous vein joined to form
r -a single trunk draining into the great saphenous vein in 9.1 % (left: 3.007o, right: 6.1 %).
j 6. The superficial circumflex iliac vein, the superficial epigastric vein and the lateral accessary
ryA,. saphenous vein joined to form a single trunk draining into the great saphenous vein in 25.807
o
(left: 12.1 Te, right: 13.7 Io).
7. The dual fusion´ took place, namely the superficial external pudendal vein with the superficial epigastric vein and the superficial circumflex iliac vein with the lateral accessory saphenous vein to drain separately into the great saphenous vein in 3.007o (only in left side).
8. The dual fusion was shown between the superficial external pudendal vein and the medial accessory saphenous vein and between the superficial circumflex iliac vein and the lateral accessory saphenous vein draining separately into the great saphenous vein in 4.6% (left: 3.1 %, right: 1.5%).
9. The superficial epigastric vein, the superficial external pudendal vein and the medial accessory saphenous vein joined to form a single trunk draining into the great saphenous mein in 3.0% (only in right side).
10. The dual fusion took place between the superficial external pudendal vein and the medial ac-
cessory saphenous vein and between the superficial circumflex iliac vein, the superficial extend=
u_
pudendal vein and the superficial epigastric vein, and was draining separately into the prrgatC.. saphenous vein in 1.57o (only in left side).
11. The incidence which showed the cases deficient in one or more tributaries was 9.170.
