They are generally com-posed of two semilunar folds, one on each side of the vessel.The free extremity of the valvular folds is concave, anddirected forward, so that while the current of blood sets towardthe heart, they present no impediment to its free passage ; butlet the current become retrograde, and it is impeded by theirdistention. The valves are most numerous in the veins of theextremities, particularly the deeper veins situated between themuscles ; but in some of the larger trunks, and also in someof the smaller veins, no valves exist.
