Peritonitis is defined as inflammation of the peritoneum. The inflammatory response involves vasodilation, exudation of protein-rich fluid, cellular infiltration, pain and, chronically, formation of fibrous adhesion. The disease can be classified into primary and secondary cases.
In the human body, the femoral vein is a blood vessel that accompanies the femoral artery in the femoral sheath. It begins at the adductor canal (also known as Hunter's canal) and is a continuation of the popliteal vein. It ends at the inferior margin of the inguinal ligament, where it becomes the external iliac vein.
The anterior tibial vein forms a small network anterior to the tibia and collects blood from the tissues of the shin. The plantar venous arch sends its blood into the leg through the medial and lateral plantar veins into the posterior tibial vein, which ascends along the leg posterior to the tibia.
