Anatomical variation types of the deep femoral vein and its tributaries
Variations in the deep femoral vein and its tributaries are not rare and can achieve a variation rate of 11.9%. Moreover, 93% of the variations involve tributaries of the deep femoral vein, among which 60% occur in the small saphenous vein branch, and approximately 30% are related to the popliteal vein branch. The variation diversity can lay a theoretical foundation for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
