McClure CFW. and Butler EG. The development of the vena cava inferior in man. (1925) Amer. J Anat. 35(3): 331-383.

Numerous embryos have been examined, and those at important and critical stages were reconstructed in wax after the method of Born.


The following is the series of human embryos actually made use of in this investigation:

Carnegie Embryological Collection (Baltimore)

  • No. 588, 4 mm embryo (reconstructed x 150)
  • No. 800, 6.5 mm embryo
  • No. 623, 10.1 mm embryo (reconstructed x 100)
  • No. 841, 15 mm embryo (reconstructed x 100)

Embryological Collection of the College of Physicians and Surgeons (P And S) of Columbia University (New York)

  • No. 1095, 11 mm embryo (reconstructed x 100)
  • No. 1024, 16 mm embryo (reconstructed x 100)
  • No. 1090, 22 mm embryo (reconstructed x 100)

Embryological Collection Of Cornell University Medical College (New York)

  • 10.2 mm embryo
  • 14 mm embryo
  • 15 mm embryo
  • 19 mm embryo

Harvard Embryological Collection (Boston)

  • No. 2051, 15 mm embryo (reconstructed x 100).
  • No. 1913, 18 mm embryo (reconstructed by Huntington and McClure in 1915).
  • No. 2924, 25 mm embryo
  • No. 2128, 45 mm embryo (reconstructed x 50).


Owing largely to the circumstance of our obtaining material from these several collections, we found that the recorded length of the various embryos cannot always be taken as indicating exactly their relative ages. Our studies have shown that the embryos examined by us can be arranged, at least so far as the development of the venous system is concerned, in the following series according to age: 4 mm (Carnegie, no. 588); 6.5 mm (Carnegie, no. 800); 10.2 mm (Cornell); 11 mm (P and S, no. 1095); 10.1 mm (Carnegie, no. 623); 15 mm (Cornell); 15 mm (Carnegie, no. 841); 15 mm (Harvard, no. 2051); 14 mm (Cornell); 16 mm (P and S, no. 1024) ; 18 mm (Harvard, no. 1913) ; 19 mm (Cornell) ; 22 mm (P and S, no. 1090) ; 25 mm (Harvard, no. 2924) and 45 mm (Harvard, no. 2128). We have also observed that all of the really significant transformations of the embryonic veins, leading up to the establishment of the inferior vena cava, take place largely in embryos measuring approximately between 10 and 18 mm in length.
