The openings of the smallest veins (lat. Foramina Venarum Minimorum) or the more common name - the openings of the smallest (synonymous with the term "thebesian foramina") are those small holes with edges in different places of the human body that are located behind the ribs of the back. Their functioning depends on several other openings and channels located in the structures of the aorta, subclan and pleural cavity

The openings of the smallest veins (foramina venarum minimarum) are paired openings in the large arcuate venous edge of the thenar fascia, intertwined with the median ligament of the fingers. They receive blood from the medial and lateral superficial digital veins through the posterior and anterior fibrous deep veins. The outflow of blood is carried out through these veins directly into the dorsal venous arch of the foot or into the popliteal vein through the anterior part of the plantar vein, which develops from this arch.
