Mar 2, 2024 · Transposition of inferior vena cava (also known as left-sided IVC) refers to a variant course of the inferior vena cava. It is the most common anomaly of IVC and occurs due to persistence of left supracardinal vein.

In the present pictorial essay we summarize imaging findings of ten patients with frequent and infrequent IVC anomalies including absence of infrarenal IVC, left IVC, double IVC, interruption of IVC with CA, left retroaortic vein, and accessory continuous hemiazygos vein.

Dec 22, 2024 · A commonly associated abnormality is the duplication of inferior vena cava (IVC). In these cases, usually, the left IVC typically ends at the left renal vein which crosses anterior to the aorta to join the right IVC. Then the right IVC remains as the azygos vein, missing the liver.

Apr 8, 2024 · The inferior vena cava (IVC) is the principal venous conduit in the human body, entrusted with the task of amassing venous blood flow from the body's lower half and channeling it into the left atrium, thereby facilitating normal circulatory dynamics.

Inferior vena cava (IVC) is a venous trunk, formed by the confluence of right and left common iliac veins, which drains into the right atrium. The tributaries of IVC include the lumbar veins, bilateral renal veins, right adrenal vein, right gonadal veins, and the hepatic veins.

Transposition of inferior vena-cava (also known as left sided IVC) refers to a variant course of the inferior vena cava. It is the most common anomaly of IVC and occurs due to persistence of left supracardinal vein.

Mar 12, 2015 · The inferior vena cava (IVC) is the main conduit of venous return to the right atrium from the lower extremities and abdominal viscera. It can be a source of critical information for referring clinicians, and recognition of IVC variants and pathologic characteristics can help guide patient treatment.

Apr 9, 2025 · A left-sided IVC is an IVC that develops on the left side of the body instead of the right side. A left-sided inferior vena cava usually ends at left renal vein. Left IVC has a prevalence rate of 0.4% to 0.5%.

May 10, 2012 · Left-sided and duplicate inferior vena cava (IVC) are two major anatomical variants within the spectrum of IVC malformations, both of which are developmental abnormalities of the supracardinal veins.

Left-sided inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare congenital venous anomaly that is most frequently detected incidentally during abdominal computer tomography scanning. However, as in the case presented, the first clinical manifestation of this anomaly may be deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremities.
