title: Anatomical variations in the drainage of the principal adrenal veins: the results of 88 venograms.
abstract: This study of 88 adrenal venograms looked at the anatomical variations in the drainage of the principal adrenal veins. These were seen with a frequency of 5% on the right and 6% on the left. On the right, we have described ectopic anastomoses with the hepatic veins. On the left, the variations were always linked to an anomaly of the renal vein.
