Medic_onfire is close. There are two: the inferior vena cava and the superior vena cava. The inferior vena cava (IVC) carries deoxygenated blood from the lower part of the body back to the heart. The superior vena cava (SVC) carries deoxygenated blood from the upper part of the body back to the heart.
All pulmonary veins drain into the LEFT atrium, not the RIGHT side of the heart.
