Key result
A comprehensive review of the coronary venous tree highlights the critical need for clinicians to accurately identify cardiac venous structures and variants during interventional procedures.
Why the study?
Coronary artery investigations have overshadowed the coronary venous tree, yet recent interventional cardiac procedures increasingly involve coronary veins, requiring a deeper clinical understanding of their anatomy and variants.
A deeper understanding of the coronary venous tree anatomy is essential for modern diagnostic and therapeutic interventional cardiac procedures.

May warrant enhanced venous mapping in interventions; extends descriptive anatomy but leaves open prospective outcome validation.
