Inferior Vena Caval Ligation
PULMONARY embolism, which is usually a complication of venous thrombosis in the lower limbs, is responsible for approximately 3 per cent. of howpital deaths. It is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in various medical and surgical conditions. It is generally accepted that anticoagulant therapy has an important place as a prophylactic measure in venous thrombosis and, when efficient, redu...
متن کاملComplications of inferior vena caval filters.
Inferior vena caval filters have been shown to be effective in the prevention of pulmonary embolism, with low morbidity and mortality associated with their implantation. Awareness of potential complications can further decrease the risk of filter placement and lead to early detection and management of complications to improve clinical outcomes. The purpose of this article is to review the proce...

متن کاملHydatid cyst of the liver causing inferior vena caval obstruction.
Hydatid disease (cystic echinococcosis) is a zoonotic infection caused by larval forms of the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus. Most common site for cysts is liver and hepatic hydatidosis has a diverse clinical spectrum. Mostly they remain asymptomatic and uncomplicated. Here we report a case of a 50 yr old farmer admitted for renal disease, who was incidentally found to have inferior vena cava...
متن کاملThe effect of breathing manner on inferior vena caval diameter.
AIMS Although the inspiratory 'collapse' of the inferior vena cava (IVC) has been used to signify normal central venous pressure, the effect of the manner of breathing IVC size is incompletely understood. As intra-abdominal pressure rises during descent of the diaphragm, we hypothesized that inspiration through diaphragmatic excursion may have a compressive effect on the IVC. METHODS AND RESU...
