An anatomy-based lumped parameter model of cerebrospinal venous circulation: can an extracranial anatomical change impact intracranial hemodynamics? [PDF]
Background The relationship between extracranial venous system abnormalities and central nervous system disorders has been recently theorized. In this paper we delve into this hypothesis by modeling the venous drainage in brain and spinal column areas

AN ANEURYSM OF THE AZYGOS VEIN
The following is a case report of a large aneurysm probably arising from the azygos vein. A 43-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital because of dorsalgia. After examinations including plain film of X-ray, ultrasonography, computed sonography, and magnetic resonance imaging, thoracotomy was performed under a diagnosis of suspected neurinoma in the

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Cannula Malposition in the Azygos Vein in a Neonate with Right-Sided Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia [PDF]
Malposition of the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) venous cannula in the azygos vein is not frequently reported. We hereby present such a case, which occurred in a neonate with right-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
