ABSTRACT
Many conditions of inferior vena cava have been noted in individuals irrespective of gender without any predilection to specific age group. However, abdominal IVC anomalies are conditions with an atypical relation with recurrent thromboembolism resulting in unusual presentation. As formation of IVC is a complex process, various anomalies occurring during embryogenesis make it essential to diagnose anatomical vascular deviations to reduce the risk of potential venous injury and haemorrhage during retroperitoneal surgeries.
Key words: Vena Cava, Inferior, Thromboembolism, Venous Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolism, Anatomic Variation.
