Veins of the Spinal Cord Median Posterior

Spinal veins are vessels that carry blood from the spinal cord to the heart. The veins of the spinal cord come in different types, including anterior, posterior, and median. The median veins of the spinal cord are one of the most important veins, as they provide the outflow of blood from the spinal cord and are also involved in regulating pressure in the vessels and preventing the formation of blood clots.

The median posterior veins of the spinal cord (v. medianae medullae spinalis posteriors) are one of the types of median veins of the spinal cord. They are located at the back of the spinal cord and drain blood from its posterior surface. These veins are of great importance for the functioning of the spinal cord, since the outflow of blood from it ensures the normal functioning of nerve cells.

The median posterior veins of the spinal cord receive blood from small vessels that pass through the posterior layer of the spinal cord. These veins then join together to form larger vessels that carry blood further to the heart.

One of the main functions of the median posterior veins of the spinal cord is the regulation of pressure in the vessels. When the pressure in the vessels increases, these veins dilate, allowing blood to flow freely and remove excess fluid from the vessels. When the pressure in the vessels drops, the veins narrow, which helps maintain normal pressure in the vessels and prevent the formation of blood clots.



**Spinal cord veins** occupy a fairly large space in the structures of the posterior spine, forming a venous collector that unites these structures and provides blood flow throughout the entire system of spinal cord veins.

Function

The veins of the spinal structures of the brain carry out reverse filtration of blood, actively capturing and absorbing fats and metabolic products. Due to their large number and branching, the veins of the spinal canal can play a vital role in the biophysiological processes of transporting fluids. In the veins of the spinal cord, the metabolism of nerve tissue cells occurs. Intensive metabolism in these veins is ensured by the lymph of the perivascular tissue and lymphoid tissue of the formations that line the veins. Diseases

Inflammation of the veins (thrombophlebitis), other changes in the vessels of the spinal cord and brain - all this can lead to negative consequences. Various diseases affect the functioning of the veins, as well as the functional activity of the spinal and cerebral circulation itself, which can cause a number of different pathological syndromes. For the venous vessels of our body there is a whole list of defects and
