Abstract: A ausência da veia cava inferior, alteração no processo de formação embriológica que ocorre entre a sexta e a oitava semanas de gestação, é uma rara anomalia congênita. Porém, recentemente foi confirmada como sendo um fator de risco importante para o desenvolvimento de trombose venosa profunda, especialmente em jovens. Apresentamos um caso de trombose em veias cava inferior, ilíacas, femorais e poplíteas num jovem de 16 anos com agenesia de um segmento de veia cava infra-renal e veia renal esquerda retroaórtic… Show more

“…The proportion of anatomic variations found in this study was greater than is described in the literature, 7,14,19,20 since two patients had duplication of the inferior vena cava in the infrarenal region (1% do total) and three patients (2% of the total) had a single renal vein feeding a single kidney.…”

“…The best imaging methods to diagnose inferior vena cava abnormalities are computed tomography and magnetic resonance angiography, since the diagnosis of inferior vena cava abnormalities solely by ultrasonography is considered to be difficult. 1,2,5 Treatment should focus on the prevention of complications, especially thrombosis. For this reason, several authors have recommended the use of anticoagulants.…”
