Abstract EN
The aim of this study was to describe the possible variations in the connection between the internal venous vertebral system and the cranial vena cava in rabbit using corrosion technique.
The study was carried out on 40 adult New Zealand white rabbits.
The venous system was injected by using Batson's corrosion casting kit number 17.
We found the connection between the internal venous vertebral system and the cranial vena cava by means of the vertebral veins and the right azygos vein.
The vertebral vein was present as independent tributary in 36 cases (90%).
In the rest of the cases, it was found as being double, being triple, or forming a common trunk with other veins.
The azygos vein was present as independent tributary of the cranial vena cava in 39 cases (97.5%).
We found also a common trunk formed by the junction of the deep cervical vein, the right vertebral vein, and the azygos vein in one case (2.5%).
The azygos vein received 6, 7, 8, or 9 pairs of dorsal intercostal veins.
Documenting the anatomical variations in the rabbit will aid in the planning of future experimental studies and determining the clinical relevance on such studies.
