摘要:
Duplicated inferior vena cava (D-IVC) is a relatively rare anatomical anomaly. Clinically, these anomalies are incidentally found on computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Lack of preoperative identification of this congenital malformation can lead to incomplete protection against thromboembolism or hemorrhage. We present a case of a 71 -year -old male with a duplicated inferior vena cava who underwent insertion of bilateral inferior vena cava filters for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) management.
