moon shaped valves. The basal part of the trunk reaches from the 

 right auricle o the heart to the upper anterior rim of the liver where 

 it receives three large trunks, first, the right and second, the left 

 vena portalis hepatica magna, and third, smaller vessels from the 

 liver substance. 



THE VEINS OF THE POSTERIOR EXTREMITY 



In the skin region on the inner sides of the toes near their bases 

 the small veins collect into five metatarsal veins. The largest vein 

 collects the blood from the first, the second, and the third toe, 

 passes up the tarsus and is called the vena metatarsalis interna, or 

 vena magna (Fig. 65, No. 7). It is located just beneath the skin 

 on the inner surface of the metatarsal bone. It passes in a circle, 

 around the condyle of the tibia and becomes the vena tibialis postica 

 (Fig. 65, No. 3 and 8). The vena tibialis postica passes under the 

 tendon Achillis and the tendon of the flexor digitorum brevis, lies
