The superficial temporal vein is a vein of the side of the head[citation needed] which collects venous blood from the region of the temple.[1]: 355 It arises from an anastomosing venous plexus on the side and vertex of the head. The superficial temporal vein terminates within the substance of the parotid gland[citation needed] by uniting with the maxillary vein to form the retromandibular vein.[1]: 364
