Congenital Interruption of the Portal Vein and Caudal Vena Cava in Dogs: Six Case Reports and a Review of the Literature

Abstract: Veterinarians involved in diagnosis and surgery for portosystemic shunts should be aware of these potential malformations, and portal vein continuity should be evaluated in all dogs before attempting shunt attenuation.

“…they are found during diagnostic procedures not directed at this problem. The anomalies relate to a portosystemic shunt, connection of the caudal vena cava with the azygos vein, situs inversus and double caudal vena cava (HUNT et al, 1998;LABORDA et al, 1996;BARTHEZ et al, 1996;BERTOLINI et al, 2014). The embryonic foundation for the connection of the azygos vein with the caudal vena cava from a discontinuous prehepatic caudal vena cava has been described in detail (BUCHANAN, 1992;HUNT et al, 1998;BARTHEZ et al, 1996;NODEN and de LAHUNTA, 1985).…”

“…This condition is the main characteristic of Kartagener’s syndrome with rhinosinusitis and bronchiectasis [7]. Situs inversus without dextrocardia has been reported with congenital vascular anomalies including portosystemic shunts (PSS) and azygos continuation of the caudal vena cava (CdVC) [10, 13, 15]. …”

“…The abdominal CdVC is divided into prerenal, renal, prehepatic, hepatic and posthepatic segments derived from the supracardinal, subcardinal and vitelline veins [10]. The retained middle segment of the supracardinal vein, normally regressed during normal development, plays a role as the connection between the embryonic CdVC and azygos vein, that is, the azygos continuation of the CdVC.…”
