Abstract

The prevalence of congenital inferior vena cava anomalies is difficultto pinpoint and is estimated to occur in 0.05-8.7% of the population. These abnormalities are often asymptomatic and are incidentally identified in patients undergoing imaging investigations for other reasons. Inferior vena cava agenesis maybe a risk factor for deep venous thrombosis due to inadequate venous drainage. We describe thecase of an 84-year-old female who was hospitalized due to unprovoked deep venous thrombosis and inferior vena cava agenesiswas foundin a further investigation.

Özet

Vena kava inferiorun konjenital anomalileri oldukça nadir görünmekte olup prevelansının %0,07 ile %8,7 arasında olduğu tahmin edilmektedir. Hastaların birçoğu asemptomatiktir. Tanı genellikle abdominal cerrahi sırasında ya da başka bir nedenle yapılan radyolojik araştırma sırasında tesadüfen saptanır . Vena cava inferior agenezisi yetersiz venöz dreneja neden olduğu için derin ven trombozu oluşumu için bir risk faktörüdür. Yazımızda spontan derin ven trombozu nedeniyle hospitalize edilen ve araştırmalar sırasında allta yatan vena cava inferior agenizisi saptanan bir olguyu sunuyoruz.
