Venous angle
Venous angle (Pirogoff's angle, Latin: angulus venosus) is the junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins at both sides of the neck. The external and the anterior jugular and the vertebral veins converge toward it. The left venous angle receives lymph from the thoracic duct. The right venous angle receives lymph from the right lymphatic trunk.
