There are two main blood vessels into which all blood returning to the heart drains, the superior and inferior vena cava. The superior vena cava will drain blood from the upper part of the body into the right atrium and the inferior vena cava will drain blood from the lower part of the body into the right atrium.

The heart is supplied with blood from the superior vena cava (the large vein that flows to the right atrium). This vein carries blood from the systemic circuit (from the body) to the heart so that blood may be oxygenated and recirculated.
Which blood vessels supply blood to the heart muscle?
The heart muscle is supplied with oxygenated blood by the coronary arteries. Along with the oxygenated blood, the arteries also supplies the heart muscle with nutrient-filled blood.
