Absence of the entire inferior vena cava was diagnosed by venography, computer tomography and ultrasonography in a 13-year-old boy, who had had dilated superficial abdominal veins since birth. An extensive collateral circulation was found from the left femoral vein, right common iliac vein and the kidneys, through deep abdominal veins, to the azygos vein and superior vena cava. Surgical treatment of this rare abnormality was neither necessary nor advisable.
A 39-year-old woman was admitted to the department of surgery due to a left-sided pulsatile cervical swelling. Angiography showed that the pulsatile swelling was due to enlargement of the internal carotid artery, and revealed a persistent left-sided primitive trigeminal artery. The clinical significance of this persistent carotid-basilar anastomosis is reviewed, and its possible pathogenetic relationship with the pulsatile cervical swelling is discussed.
A left-sided inferior vena cava was demonstrated during resection of an aortic aneurysm in a 78-year-old man. The embryonic development and clinical significance of this rare anomaly are discussed.
