Anatomic localizations, diameters, wall thickness and valve types of the superficial veins of the upper extremity were counted and evaluated. \\r\\nResults: Average diameter of the brachial artery was 3.96 mm, the radial artery 2.54 mm, the ulnar artery 2.12 mm, the proper palmar digital artery 3 0.85 mm, the cephalic vein of the arm 1.81 mm, the basilic vein of the arm 3.20 mm, the cephalic vein of the forearm 2.04 mm, the basilic vein of the forearm 1.35 mm, and the dorsal venous network of the hand 1.27 mm. Three different types of valves were determined. The most frequent valve types were the Type 3 in the cephalic and basilica veins at 86.5% and 90.7%, respectively. \\r\\nConclusion: Data obtained on the superficial veins of the upper extremity may be helpful to surgeons in microsurgical reconstructions.\n\n\u00d6zet\n\nAma\u00e7: Bu \u00e7al\u0131\u015fmada \u00fcst ekstremite arterlerine uygun olabilecek ven greft kaynaklar\u0131 ve bu venlerin \u00f6zelliklerinin ara\u015ft\u0131r\u0131lmas\u0131 planland\u0131. \\r\\n\u00c7al\u0131\u015fma plan\u0131: Sekiz kadavran\u0131n 16 \u00fcst ekstremitesi ara\u015ft\u0131r\u0131ld\u0131. \u00dcst ekstremitenin y\u00fczeysel venlerinin anatomik lokalizasyonu, \u00e7aplar\u0131, duvar kal\u0131nl\u0131klar\u0131 ve kapak tipleri say\u0131ld\u0131 ve de\u011ferlendirildi.\\r\\nBulgular: Brakiyal arterin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 3.96 mm, radyal arterin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 2.54 mm, ulnar arterin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 2.12 mm, palmar dijital arter 3\u2019\u00fcn ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 0.85 mm, sefalik venin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 1.81 mm, bazilik venin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 3.20 mm, \u00f6n kol sefalik venin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 2.04 mm, \u00f6n kol bazilik venin ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 1.35 mm, elin s\u0131rt\u0131ndaki ven\u00f6z a\u011f\u0131n ortalama \u00e7ap\u0131 1.27 mm olarak \u00f6l\u00e7\u00fcld\u00fc. \u00dc\u00e7 farkl\u0131 tip kapak tan\u0131mland\u0131.
