Inferior Vena Cava Agenesis Associated with Urogenital Anomalies: A Case Report

Abstract

Background: Inferior vena cava (IVC) agenesis, ectopic ureterocele and ureteral duplication are very rare congenital anomalies. Case Presentation: A-25-year-old female patient was referred with right flank pain, chills and dysuria. Laboratory tests and CT showed findings consistent with acute pyelonephritis. There were only frequent urinary tract infections and Factor V Leiden mutation in her medical history. Patient was treated with antibiotherapy. CT examination demonstrated IVC agenesis (IVCA). Urogenital anomalies such as vaginal ectopic ureterocele, ureteral duplication and septate uterine anomaly were also present. Conclusion: We report the first occurrence of IVC agenesis associated with multiple urogenital anomalies in the literature.
