The Largest Vein in the Heart is the Coronary Sinus, which runs in the atrioventricular groove around the posterior and lateral aspect of the Right Atrium.

The Second largest vein in the heart is the Great Vein which lies anteriorly and runs with the Left Anterior Descending or Anterior Interventricular Artery, commonly referred to as the LAD or widow maker.

Ventricles receive blood from veins?

No, ventricles receive blood from the atria. The superior and inferior vena cava (large veins) both bring blood to the right atrium of the heart. Blood leaves the right atrium and enters the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs. The pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium. Blood leaves the left atrium and enters the left ventricle. The left ventricle then pumps blood to the rest of the body.
