“…[5] Azygos vein usually lies on the right side of the vertebral column, but it may be shifted to the midline or the left of midline as age advances. [6] Hence, the midline position of the azygos vein in the current case was possibly due to old age.…”

“…To the same conclusion came other researchers who studied the course of the AV in adults and infants. Specifically, Sarnowska et al did not find any AV on the left side of the vertebral column in stillborn fetuses [ 8 ], while Rokutanda et al came across a left-sided AV only in 2%, in a sample of 50 six-month-old infants [ 9 ].…”

“…Apart from Nathan, Saito et al with a sample of 47 adult cadavers (mean age 84.7 years old), found the AV on the left in 44 cadavers (94%). Tokutome, on the other hand, after dissecting a number of 54 young adult cadavers (mean age 42 years old) came across only 4% of left-sided AV [ 9 ]. Tatar et al examined the course of the AV in chest CT's of 103 cases, with a mean age 47.08 years old, and found the AV on the right side of the body in 39 cases (37.9%); in 23 cases (22.3%), the AV was on the left side of the vertebral column; and in the remaining 41 cases (39.8%), the AV was located at the midline and in front of the vertebral column [ 10 ].…”

Haec quidem eo induxi, ut commonstrem hanc supra cordis auriculam venam que in cordispersam, super quartam & sere tertiae metaphreni vertebre sinem a cava etiam in hominibus productam" 19 , δηλαδή "Αλλά κανένας που έχει ανατάμει ο ίδιος ή που έχει παρατηρήσει μια ανατομή δεν θα ισχυριζόταν ότι η άζυγη φλέβα προκύπτει κάτω από τη βάση της καρδιάς ή πριν η κοίλη φλέβα φτάσει στην καρδιά.…”
