1
Q

how many valves?
great saphenous
small saphenous

A

10-20(more numerous in leg than thigh)

9-12

2
Q

which side of the tendocalcaneus is the small saphenous v

A

lateral

3
Q

why venae comitantes?

A

heat exchange

when hot - venae comitantes engorged

4
Q

tributaries to femoral v

A

popliteal
deep femoral
medial and lateral circumglex femoral
great saphenous

5
Q

popliteal v is _____ to a

A

superficial

- most superficial structue (think of small saphenous entering in to it)

6
Q

the femoral v is ______ to a ***

A

posterolateral

- in triangle lies medial to the a

7
Q

joins superficial and deep veins

A

perforating veins

8
Q

dodd veins

A

femoral canal perforators (adductor canal)

9
Q

boyd veins

A

paratibial perforator (calf m)

10
Q

cockett veins

A

posterior tibial perforators (proximal to ankle joint)

11
Q

bassi veins

A

peroneal or lateral calf perforators (5-7 cm above lateral malleolus)

12
Q

lymph traveling with great spahenous v end in

A

inferior group of superficial inguinal nodes

13
Q
lymphatics
dorsalis pedis and anterior tibial -->
medial and lateral plantar  --->
posterior tibial and peroneal -->
femoral, deep femoral -->
A

ant. tibial node
popliteal
popliteal
deep inguinal

14
Q

where do lymph vessels begin?

A

blind-ended capillaries

15
Q

how many popliteal lymph nodes

A

6/7 in three groups
anterior to popliteal a: knee jt
posterior to popliteal a: vessels coursing with small saphenous v
side of popliteal a: vessels that course with ant and post tib and peroneal a

efferents from here will drain into deep inguinal nodes

16
Q

lop-sided T of superfiical inguinal nodes

A

horizontal/superior group (parallels inguinal ligament, afferents from superior and lateral gluteal regions, anterior abdominal wall and perineum)

vertical/inferior group (parallels terminal portion of great saphenous v, afferents from foot, leg, thigh and perineum)

efferents from here pass to external iliac nodes

17
Q

name uppermost inguinal node

A

gland of cloquet or node of rosenmuller

18
Q

receives afferents from pelvis and deeped aspects of the gluteal region

A

internal iliac nodes (located within pelvis)

19
Q

generally indicates infection localized within the perineum

A

swollen superficial inguinal nodes

20
Q

generally indicates infection localized with the lower limb

A

swollen deep infuinal nodes
