The inferior phrenic veins drain the diaphragm and follow the course of the inferior phrenic arteries; the right ends in the inferior vena cava; the left is often represented by two branches, one of which ends in the left renal or suprarenal vein,
The inferior phrenic artery is a bilaterally paired artery of the abdominal cavity which represents the main source of arterial supply to the diaphragm. Each artery usually arises either from the coeliac trunk or the abdominal aorta, however, their origin is highly variable and the different sites of origin are different for the left artery and right artery.

The suprarenal veins are two in number: . the right ends in the inferior vena cava.; the left ends in the left renal or left inferior phrenic vein.; They receive blood from the adrenal glands and will sometimes form anastomoses with the inferior phrenic veins.
Due to the right-ward displacement of the inferior vena cava from the midline, the left renal vein is some 3 times longer than the right one (~7.5 cm and ~2.5 cm, respectively). [ 1 ] The renal vein divides into 4 divisions upon entering the kidney: [ contradictory ] [ citation needed ]
The left common iliac vein occasionally travels upwards to the left of the aorta to the level of the kidney, where it receives the left renal vein and crosses in front of the aorta to join the inferior vena cava. [4] The right common iliac vein is virtually vertical and lies behind and then lateral to its artery.
The phrenic plexus accompanies the inferior phrenic artery to the diaphragm, some filaments passing to the suprarenal gland. It arises from the upper part of the celiac ganglion, and is larger on the right than on the left side. It receives one or two branches from the phrenic nerve.
