  2. Femoral vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoral_vein

    The femoral vein continues into the thigh as the continuation from the popliteal vein at the back of the knee. It drains blood from the deep thigh muscles and thigh bone. [2] Proximal to the confluence with the deep femoral vein, and the joining of the great saphenous vein, the femoral vein is widely known as the common femoral vein. [3]

    Feline arterial thromboembolism (FATE syndrome) (German: Feline arterielle Thromboembolie) is a disease of the domestic cat in which blood clots block arteries, causing severe circulatory problems. Relative to the total number of feline patients, the disease is rare, but relatively common in cats with heart disease: about one-sixth of cats with ...

  4. Thrombosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombosis

    Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is the formation of a blood clot within a deep vein. It most commonly affects leg veins, such as the femoral vein. Three factors are important in the formation of a blood clot within a deep vein—these are: the rate of blood flow, the thickness of the blood and; qualities of the vessel wall.

    The GSV, a superficial vein, is the longest vein in the body. It has its origin in the dorsal venous arch of the foot, a superficial vein which connects the small saphenous vein with the GSV. It travels up the leg and medial side of the thigh to reach the groin, where it drains into the common femoral vein. [32]

  6. Femoral artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoral_artery

    The common femoral artery (CFA) is located between the inferior margin of the inguinal ligament, and the branching point of the deep femoral artery. Its first three or four centimetres are enclosed, with the femoral vein, in the femoral sheath.

  7. Femoral triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoral_triangle

    Femoral vein and its tributaries - The vein lies medial to the femoral artery at the base of the triangle but as it approaches the apex of the triangle, it lies posteromedially to the femoral artery. It receives drainage from great saphenous vein, circumflex veins, and veins corresponding to the branches of the femoral artery here. [2]

  8. Femoral vessel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoral_vessel

    Femoral artery (also known in this location as the common femoral artery) and; Femoral vein; Lymphatic vessels found in the thigh aren’t usually included in this collective noun. As the blood vessels pass along the thigh, they branch, with their main branches remaining closely associated, where they are still referred to collectively as ...

    Additionally, studies suggest that short term use of CVCs in the subclavian vein is less likely to be associated with blood clots than CVCs placed in the femoral vein in non-cancer patients. [2] In the case of non-thrombotic occlusion (e.g. formation of precipitates), dilute acid can be used to restore patency to the catheter.
