Each brachiocephalic vein is formed behind the corresponding sternoclavicular joint by the union of the internal jugular and subclan veins. Tributaries:1. The azygos vein arches over the root of the right lung and open into the superior vena cava at the level of the second costal cailage, just before thelatter enters the pericardium.2. Several small mediastinal and pericardial veins drain into the vena cava.Ref: BD Chaurasia; Volume 1; 6th edition; Page no: 258
