Stump the Chump

What are the two types (names) of cardiac veins which do not drain into the right atrium via the coronary sinus?

Well as I said before, any med student (not necessarily an idiot, either) knows that (1) the anterior cardiac veins (3 or 4 small veins collecting blood from front of the right ventricle and opening into the right atrium rather than the c.s.) and (2) the veins of Thebesius (the smallest cardiac veins) which are minute in size and arise in the myocardium--most of them open into the atria but a few terminate in the ventricles.

Sincerely yours,
da Chump
