As soon as this circle THE VEINS. 28S around the ureter has been established, its lateral limb,which represents part of the original cardinal vein, degen-erates, its anterior portion alone persisting to form a partof the renal vein (compare Figs. 150, A and B, r). Ananastomosis now develops between the right and left car-dinals at the point where the iliac veins open into them.
