Cephalic vein: Saviour in the microsurgical reconstruction of breast and head and neck cancers
Background: Reconstruction with microvascular free flaps is considered the reconstructive option of choice in cancer of the head and neck regions and breast. Rarely, there is paucity of vessels, especially the veins, at the recipient site.

Computational modelling of the cephalic arch with jugulocephalic vein variant predicts haemodynamic profiles in patients with brachiocephalic fistula [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The cephalic vein is often used in for arteriovenous fistula creation; however, the cephalic vein variation is common. This study will propose new theoretical explanations for a new discovered variation of cephalic vein draining into external

Introduction: The creation and maintenance of uninterrupted Haemodialysis (HD) is dependent on the quality and reliability of vascular access. The native Radio-cephalic Arteriovenous Fistula (RCAVF) is the vascular access of choice for HD in patients ...

Rare variations of cephalic vein drainage: two case reports [PDF]
Throughout the years, anatomic studies have demonstrated numerous variations in the course of the cephalic vein (CV). There are, however, very rare cases of uncommon formation, course, or termination of the vein to which our attention should be drawn ...

Novel Technique to Facilitate Defibrillator Lead Implantation via Cephalic Vein Cutdown by Means of a Reference Catheter and a Specially Designed Long Sheath [PDF]
The cephalic vein is recommended as the access route for an implantable cardioverter defibrillator lead to avoid complications associated with subclavian vein puncture; however, cephalic vein cutdown is not necessarily preferred, mainly because of ...

Variations of the cephalic vein anterior to the clavicle in humans [PDF]
Clinicians should understand that jugulocephalic vein (JCV) variants may be occasionally found. This study aims to classify JCV variants and obtain their frequency.We investigated anatomical variants of the cephalic vein in 55 human cadavers during a gross anatomy course at our medical school.The percentage of JCVs that pass through the anterior part ...

Dual Origin of the Cephalic Vein with Double Fenestration: A Case Report
Background/Objectives: This article discusses the clinical–surgical relevance of vascular anatomical variations, such as fenestrations—the division of a vessel into multiple channels that subsequently rejoin distally.

Cephalic Vein for Carotid Patching [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveTo assess the effectiveness of cephalic vein patch (CVP) closure following carotid endarterectomy (CEA).Material and methodsWe reviewed 121 patients who underwent CEA using CVP closure. Patch-rupture, re-exploration, false aneurysm formation, re-stenosis requiring surgery, 30-day-mortality, donor site complications, stroke and TIA were
