Superior and inferior venacava?

The superior vena cava (SVC) and inferior vena cava (IVC) are two large veins that transport deoxygenated blood back to the heart. The SVC collects blood from the upper body, including the head, neck, and arms, while the IVC gathers blood from the lower body, including the abdomen and legs. Both veins empty into the right atrium of the heart, playing a crucial role in the circulatory system by returning blood for reoxygenation. Their proper function is essential for maintaining effective blood circulation throughout the body.
