venae pancreaticoduodenales

venae pancreaticoduodenales
[TA] pancreaticoduodenal veins: four veins that drain blood from the pancreas and duodenum, closely following the homonymous arteries. A superior and an inferior vein originate from both an anterior and a posterior venous arcade. The anterior superior vein joins the right gastro-omental vein; the posterior superior vein joins the hepatic portal vein. The anterior and posterior inferior veins join, sometimes as one trunk and other times singly, the uppermost jejunal vein or the superior mesenteric vein.
