The coronary sinus is a collection of veins joined together to form a large vessel that collects blood from the heart muscle (myocardium). It delivers deoxygenated blood to the right atrium, as do the superior and inferior vena cavae. It is present in all mammals, including humans. The name comes from the Latin "corona' , meaning crown, since this vessel forms a partial circle around the heart.
