Unilateral Absence Of Cephalic Vein- A Case Report

Variations in the venous vasculature are commonly visualised during the routine dissection of cadavers. In this case the cephalic vein was absent in the deltopectoral groove of the right arm. The origin of the basilic vein was found to be varying since it originated from the lateral aspect of dorsal venous arch. A long antebrachial vein which bifurcated into two brachial veins were found draining into the axillary vein.
