Abstract
We report an unusual termination of external jugular vein on the right side of the neck during routine dissection in a 72- year -old female cadaver in which the right external jugular vein drains directly into the cephalic vein, running in front of the medial 1/3 of the clavicle. Detailed knowledge of anatomical variations in this part of the human body is so vital in intervention radiology, intravenous infusion, and surgical procedures involving the head and neck region.
