The short (posterior) saphena nerve, formed by the union of branches from the peronaeal and posterior tibial nerves. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
Each hour I withdrew a half-pound of blood, then I fed her and for three hours I drew half a pound of blood from the saphena. ❋ Henry Ebenezer Handerson (N/A)
The cord, K, is placed on the inner side of the hernia; the cribriform fascia covers it; and the upper end of the saphena vein, M, passes beneath its lower border. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
In some instances the posterior saphena vein, instead of joining the popliteal vein, ascends superficially to terminate in some of the large veins of the thigh. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
This is apparent, too, in his treatment of hernia, which consists usually in the employment of various poultices and ointments, bleeding from the saphena, cups over the kidneys, etc., though hydrocele is tapped and a seton inserted. ❋ Henry Ebenezer Handerson (N/A)
In company with this nerve will be seen the posterior saphena vein, L, which, commencing behind the outer ankle, ascends the mesial line of the calf to join the popliteal vein, G, in the cleft between the heads of the gastrocnemius. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
Accordingly she was robust, and I bled her from the basilic vein of the left hand and the saphena of the right foot, both within an hour. ❋ Henry Ebenezer Handerson (N/A)
The popliteal vein joined by the short saphena vein. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
I may say that after the third venesection, with an interval of two hours, I withdrew a half-pound of blood from the saphena vein, and that night she slept, although she had not slept for many nights. ❋ Henry Ebenezer Handerson (N/A)
The two arteries are accompanied by venae comites, which, with the short saphena vein, form the popliteal vein. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
Between the heads of the gastrocnemius, the nerve, H, giving off large branches to this muscle, lies upon the popliteal vein, G, where this is joined by the posterior saphena vein. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
The so-called saphenous opening, therefore, is naturally masked by the superficial fascia; and this membrane being here perforated for the passage of the saphena vein, and its tributary branches, as also the efferent vessels of the lymphatic glands, is termed "cribriform." ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
A vein (anterior saphena) may be found to cross in this situation, but the saphena vein proper is not met with, as this lies nearer the inner side of the thigh. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
The great saphenous vein (v. saphena magna; internal or long saphenous vein) (Fig. 581), the longest vein in the body, begins in the medial marginal vein of the dorsum of the foot and ends in the femoral vein about 3 cm. below the inguinal ligament. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The small saphenous vein (v. saphena parva; external or short saphenous vein) (Fig. 582) begins behind the lateral malleolus as a continuation of the lateral marginal vein; it first ascends along the lateral margin of the tendocalcaneus, and then crosses it to reach the middle of the back of the leg. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Down here, you see, the _vena saphena_, was completely severed. ❋ Gerhart Hauptmann (1904)
The blood spavin is situated in front and to the inside of the hock and is merely a varicose or dilated condition of the saphena vein. ❋ Charles B. Michener (1877)
The saphena vein can generally be recognised, and is almost always safe out of the way of this incision at its inner side. ❋ Joseph Bell (1874)
Make an incision three inches long commencing four fingers 'breadth below the fold of the groin, and running directly over the course of the artery; look for the great saphena vein, in the superficial fascia, at the inner ❋ Unknown (1863)
Page 294 the Patient as before; make an incision about three inches in length, parallel with the inner margin of the tendo Achillis; carefully avoid the internal saphena vein, and divide the two layers of fascia upon a grooved director; open the sheath, separate the artery from the venæ comites, isolate, and introduce the needle so as to avoid the nerve which is on the external side. ❋ Unknown (1863)
