چکیده

Since its inception in 1982, percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) has gained increasingly wide use internationally in patients with Rheumatic Mitral stenosis. PTMC offers an alternative to surgery in patients who have pliable mitral valve.Very few reasons were reported to abort the procedure when patient lies on the table. This study presents two case reports in which congenital venous anomalies were one of the reasons to terminate the procedure.

A case of anomalous inferior vena cava with azygos continuation associated with situs inversus totalis and acquired mitral valvular disease.

NOMALOUS inferior vena cava with azygos or hemiazygos continuation has been considered to be a very rare anomaly in the past. However, since the development of cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography, this congenital abnormality has been reported with increasing frequency. This anomaly is usually associated with other cardiovascular defect, and there are few reported cases without other m...

Infrahepatic caudal/inferior vena cava interruption with azygos/hemiazygos continuation. Vascular anomaly in swine

BACKGROUND Swine are commonly used as a model to study congenital cardiovascular defects that occur in humans and these models have been both spontaneous and experimentally induced. Ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, and atrial septal defect (ASD) are examples of experimentally induced models. Absence of caudal/inferior vena cava (CVC/IVC) with azygos/hemiazygos continuation i...

Rare congenital anomaly of the inferior vena cava

Congenital anomaly of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a well described phenomenon [1,2]. These anomalies include complete absence, partial absence or duplication of the IVC [3]. Such anomalies of the IVC are seen more frequently in those with other congenital cardiac anomalies (0.6%–2%) [4]. This congenital condition can be discovered incidentally, or due to symptoms of associated congenital he...

Inoue-Balloon Percutaneous Transvenous Mitral Valvuloplasty through the Left Femoral Vein in Anomalous Inferior Vena Cava.

UNLABELLED Inoue-balloon percutaneous transvenous mitral valvuloplasty is conventionally performed via the right femoral vein. However, atrial transseptal access can be technically challenging. Herein, we describe a 54-year-old male who had balloon mitral valvuloplasty performed via the left femoral vein because of an anomalous inferior vena cava course, including the technical issues encounter...

Agenesis of Inferior Vena Cava with Cavernous Transformation and Hypoplastic Infrarenal Part of IVC, Rare Congenital Vascular Anomalies: A Case Series

Congenital vascular anomalies are although rare but may cause serious complications. Vascular pathologies are best demonstrated by contrast enhanced computed tomography, with the advent of multidetector computed tomography and applying multiplanar reformation techniques. However, ultrasound color Doppler and catheter angiography are accessory imaging modalities utilized to rule out vascular ano...
