Abstract

Introduction

The current imaging report describes a unique coexistence of the neck venous system morphological variants.

Methods

The imaging study of a 75-year-old male patient was isolated due to its unique venous system.

Results

An internal jugular vein (IJV) duplication (main-typical and accessory IJVs) was identified on the right side, coexisting with a facial vein (FV) drainage into the accessory IJV. On the left side, the external jugular vein (EJV) was draining into the IJV and the FV into the EJV. A transverse anastomosis of the EJV and anterior jugular vein (AJV) was identified.

Conclusions

The IJV duplication is a rare morphological variant, and its coexistence with other co-variants complicates the area's anatomy. Understanding these morphological variants is crucial for anesthesiologists and surgeons, as it can help prevent iatrogenic injury.

颈内静脉复制与颈外静脉对侧颈内引流同时存在

结果右侧颈内静脉（IJV）重复（典型的主颈内静脉和附属颈内静脉），与面部静脉（FV）引流至附属颈内静脉并存。在左侧，颈外静脉（EJV）引流至 IJV，FV 引流至 EJV。结论：颈内静脉重复是一种罕见的形态变异，它与其他共同变异并存，使该区域的解剖变得复杂。了解这些形态变异对麻醉师和外科医生来说至关重要，因为这有助于预防先天性损伤。

期刊介绍： Translational Research in Anatomy is an international peer-reviewed and open access journal that publishes high-quality original papers. Focusing on translational research, the journal aims to disseminate the knowledge that is gained in the basic science of anatomy and to apply it to the diagnosis and treatment of human pathology in order to improve individual patient well-being. Topics published in Translational Research in Anatomy include anatomy in all of its aspects, especially those that have application to other scientific disciplines including the health sciences: • gross anatomy • neuroanatomy • histology • immunohistochemistry • comparative anatomy • embryology • molecular biology • microscopic anatomy • forensics • imaging/radiology • medical education Priority will be given to studies that clearly articulate their relevance to the broader aspects of anatomy and how they can impact patient care.Strengthening the ties between morphological research and medicine will foster collaboration between anatomists and physicians. Therefore, Translational Research in Anatomy will serve as a platform for communication and understanding between the disciplines of anatomy and medicine and will aid in the dissemination of anatomical research. The journal accepts the following article types: 1. Review articles 2. Original research papers 3. New state-of-the-art methods of research in the field of anatomy including imaging, dissection methods, medical devices and quantitation 4. Education papers (teaching technologies/methods in medical education in anatomy) 5. Commentaries 6. Letters to the Editor 7. Selected conference papers 8. Case Reports
