Prevelance of Uterine Vein and Uterine Vein System Variations

Contrary to the uterine arterial system, our knowledge about superficial and deep uterine vein prevalence and anatomic variations are limited. The present study aims to deepen and clarify our knowledge on superficial and deep uterine vein anatomy, prevalence and relationship with other neighbouring structures which may be helpful in uterine transplantation and radical hysterectomy operations.

About this study

Despite that two veins draining the uterus, superficial and deep, are described, their true anatomy, number, calibers, trajectories, relationships with sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves and internal iliac vasculature and ureters are quite limited. Additionally, variations of these vasculature are much less described. The aim of this study is to increase the our current knowledge about these anatomical information and also to calculate the prevalence of superficial and deep uterine veins which may potentially decrease the possible complications such as bleeding in uterine transplantation surgery and nerve sparing radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer.
