Azygos vein aneurysms (AVAs) are uncommon and infrequently diagnosed. When confronted with a patient presenting with an AVA, physicians can rely on only a few case reports after an extensive literature search. To date, no guideline, no rule, and no review on the optimal treatment strategy for these patients exist.A PubMed and MEDLINE database search ...

Clinical Imaging, 2000
A rare case of the absence of the azygos vein (AV) is presented. Imaging findings on plain chest film and on contrast-enhanced spiral computed tomography (CT) are described, and embryology of azygos and hemiazygos veins (HV) is reviewed. On PA chest radiographs, both the absence of AV shadow on its usual location and the presence of the aortic nipple ...

Ventriculoatrial shunt utilizing the azygos vein
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1992Long-term ventricular cerebrospinal fluid shunting can prove difficult in the neonatal population, particularly in those neonates who have had previous abdominal and vascular procedures. This article presents a technique of providing vascular access for ventriculoatrial shunting via the azygos vein for patients with limited vascular access and in whom ...

Normal Azygos Vein Width in Children
Radiology, 1972The utility of azygos vein measurement in determining pathologic processes is discussed on the basis of reports in the literature and normal values obtained from 762 chest radiographs of patients from birth to fourteen years of age. Four age groups were defined and mean vein size obtained: birth to 6 mo., mean 3.5 ± 1.3 mm; 6 to 24 mo., mean 4.1 ± 1.0 ...
