“…This may be responsible for asymptomatic venous thrombosis when the thrombus is located at the proximal part of the femoral vein with respect to its junction with the collateral canal. A duplicated and interconnected femoral vein, similar to our case, on the right side has been reported by (Khan AA et al, 2013). The prevalence of duplicated femoral veins is variable, ranging from 12% to 46%, depending on the technique used: anatomical study, venography or ultrasound (Uhl JF et al, 2010).…”

During a dissection of the two femoral trigons in a female corpse, about 14 years old, we discovered on the right side, the deep artery of the thigh arising from the medial side of the femoral artery and passed in front of the femoral vein above the mouth of the great saphenous vein; on both sides, there was the presence of a collateral canal which communicated the external iliac vein with the femoral vein on the right, on the left, it communicated the external iliac vein with the quadricipital vein. The lower part of the femoral vein was duplicated on both sides, but on the right, there was an interconnecting channel between the two trunks of the duplication. Variations of the femoral vessels are very frequent and can be responsible for an incident during the practice of certain gestures at the level of the femoral trigon such as: catheterization of the femoral artery or vein, the treatment of femoral hernias. Key words: Deep thigh artery, collateral venous canal, external iliac vein, anatomic variations.

“…When the pathology is examined, it is obvious how important it is in vein structures as well as the organization of arterial and nerve structures for surgical operations to be performed on the dorsal surface and plantar surface of the foot and for the ankle region. In addition, the thrombosis in PVT can be seen some different conditions such as the antiphospholipid syndrome, some metabolic syndromes, or in some developmental venous malformations [6,8].…”

Khan AA et al 7 attribute these variations to venous development arrest or defects during embryonic development.

Introduction Lower limb venous anomalies, including duplicated veins, are common and have significant impacts on the outcomes and efficacy of venous surgery. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) guided venography, serving as the tertiary diagnostic option for venous disorders, offers valuable informations to clinical practitioners. Patients and Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 195 patients with suspected venous disease, evaluating 259 limbs with venography imaging. Two experienced interventional vascularists evaluated the images to determine the incidence and characteristics of variances in the femoral, popliteal, great saphenous, and small saphenous veins. Moreover, blood samples were collected to assess the safety of the venography procedure by monitoring changes in renal function. Result Duplication variations were found in the lower limb veins, with the highest prevalence in the femoral vein (11.28%, 22/195), followed by the great saphenous vein (4.1%, 8/195), and the popliteal vein (1.54%, 3/195). No severe contrast agent allergies or postoperative complications were reported. No statistically significant differences were found in creatinine and urea levels pre- and post-operation for patients without duplication variations, those with duplication of the great saphenous, femoral, or popliteal vein ( P < .05). Conclusion DSA-guided venography is effective in identifying venous variations in lower limb disease. DFV is the most common recurrent vein, while DPV is the least. Adequate preparation ensures safety, high spatial resolution, dynamic imaging, and low tissue interference.
