| description | Introduction: An adequate knowledge of anomalies of gonadal
veins will help the radiologists and surgeons in recognition and
protection of these veins which play major roles in thermoregulation that is essential for the efficient functioning of testis
on which the survival of the human species depends.
Aim: The aim of this work is to present an analysis of the
anatomical variations of gonadal veins. An effort has also
been made to explicate the possible embryological model of
development of such variants and to present the variable clinical
aspects concerning them.
Materials and Methods: Gonadal veins in 60 dissection
room cadavers were examined for variations from the classic
anatomic description.
Result: In the present study, out of 60 cases, male: female ratio
was 2:1(40:20) in which no variation was found in ovarian veins.
In the 18 (45%) cases, testicular veins showed variations which
consist of duplication and atypical drainage.
Discussion: Variations of drainage of gonadal vein are due to
error of embryological development in venous shift and alteration
in anastomotic channel of post-cardinal, supra-cardinal and sub
cardinal veins.
Conclusion: The gonadal veins present numeric variations as
well as variations in its site of drainage, which attributed to
the various pathological conditions as varicocele and pelvic
congestion syndrome, leading to infertility in patients. Hence,
in -depth knowledge of these developmental anomalies of
gonadal veins is important. |
