KROK 1 2017 – Question 198 · KROK (Medicine) · Human Anatomy

An injured person with wound of the anterior cervical region presents with hemorrhage. The outflowing blood is dark. What vessel is damaged?

  1. A. V. jugularis anterior
  2. B. A. carotis externa
  3. C. A. thyroidea superior
  4. D. V. jugularis externa
  5. E. V. jugularis interna
Hint

Dark outflowing blood tells you whether the damaged vessel is an artery or a vein; then place the candidate vessels by region of the neck, front versus side, superficial versus deep.
