Cect Evaluation of an Isolated Long Segment Ivc Thrombus in a Patient With Acute on Chronic Pancreatitis: A Case Report

Abstract

Isolated Inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombosis is a rare vascular complication of Pancreatitis. Vascular complications associated with Pancreatitis are more commonly seen in peripancreatic vessels like Splenic, portal or mesenteric veins. We report a case of isolated IVC thrombosis in a patient with chronic pancreatitis on acute exacerbation. Awareness of this rare complication will help in early diagnosis & treatment as well as prevent further dreaded complication like pulmonary embolism.
