Inferior vena cava echocardiography
Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1982AbstractThe inferior vena cava can be imaged during echocardiography from the subcostal transducer position as an echo‐free space at a depth ranging from 6 to 15 cm from the abdominal wall. The normal inferior vena cava M‐mode echocardiogram has an “a” and “v” pulsation pattern similar to that seen in the jugular venous tracing and exhibits prominent ...

LEIOMYOSARCOMA OF INFERIOR VENA CAVA
Archives of Surgery, 1954TUMORS of the inferior vena cava are a pathologic curiosity of extreme rarity. In 1950 Roussak and Heppleston, 1 in England, reported a case of leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava producing obstruction of the vessel. The tumor was found at autopsy.

Use of inferior vena cava (IVC) filters has increased dramatically in recent decades, despite a lack of evidence that their use has impacted venous thromboembolism (VTE)-related mortality. This increased use appears to be primarily driven by the insertion of retrievable filters for prophylactic indications. A growing body of evidence, however, suggests

Inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1992AbstractLeiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava is a rare malignancy, and radical resection with negative margins remains the only hope for cure. In this report we cite four cases of this tumor treated at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center with particular emphasis on the use of preoperative chemotherapy. In our patients, preoperative

Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava
Cardiovascular Pathology, 2006Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava is a rare neoplasm; however, it is the most frequent tumor of vascular origin. It is classified according to site of origin that reflects its clinical presentation and prognosis. They are generally recognized to be of smooth muscle cell origin. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice.

Ligation of the Inferior Vena Cava
Archives of Surgery, 1965THE UNDESIRABLE sequelae to inferior vena caval ligation have been studied and reported by several observers * and these sequelae contribute significantly to a general reluctance on the part of physicians to apply this effective technique as broadly as might otherwise be indicated.

Injuries to the Inferior Vena Cava
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1972Most deaths from injury to the inferior vena cava are caused by exsanguination occurring before the patient arrives in the hospital or during operation. The problems of control of hemorrhage and surgical exposure, and the merits of primary repair versus ligation are the subjects of this paper.

Injuries of the inferior vena cava
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2001Injuries of the IVC, whether caused by blunt or penetrating mechanisms, are usually fatal. Patients who arrive in shock and fail to respond to initial resuscitative measures, those who are still actively bleeding at the time of laparotomy, and those with wounds of the retrohepatic vena cava have a low probability of survival.
