An Anomalous Left External Jugular Vein Draining into Right Subclavian Vein: A Case Report
Knowledge of the varying drainage patterns of superficial veins of head & neck, in particular, jugular veins are not only important for anatomists but also for the surgeons operating at this level and to clinicians in general. The variations are important for interventional radiologists too...
