Anatomic Study of Number of Pulmonary Veins Draining into the Left Atrium and Their Variations
Journal of Medical Sciences and Health, 2020 Introduction: Pulmonary veins originate from the alveolar capillary plexus and carry oxygenated blood to the left atrium. The fibrous pericardium is perforated by the pulmonary veins and they drain separately in the posterosuperior aspect of the left ...
