What is the basivertebral vein?
The basivertebral vein is a vein that drains blood from the vertebral bodies of the spine and empties into the anterior internal vertebral venous plexus.
Where is the basivertebral vein located?
Basivertebral veins are located within the cancellous bone of vertebral bodies, exiting through foramina in the posterior surface of each vertebra to connect with the anterior internal vertebral venous plexus in the spinal canal.
What is the function of the basivertebral vein?
The basivertebral vein is involved in draining blood from the intraosseous venous sinusoids within the vertebral body, contributing to the complex vertebral venous plexus system that connects the pelvis to the skull.
What conditions may be associated with the basivertebral vein?
Vertebral hemangiomas, Schmorl nodes, metastatic disease to the spine, and Batson plexus involvement in cancer spread may be associated with the basivertebral vein and the vertebral venous plexus.
How is the basivertebral vein examined?
Basivertebral veins may be assessed through MRI or CT of the spine, which may reveal characteristic vascular channels within vertebral bodies, or during spinal surgery when vertebral anatomy is directly explored.
