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 ...

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 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.

Leiomyosarcoma of the Inferior Vena Cava
Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2006A 68-year-old woman presented for reevaluation of progressively worsening dyspnea over 2 years. Imaging 4 months prior included unremarkable chest CT, pulmonary function tests, and pulmonary angiogram. On reevaluation, transesophageal echocardiogram was performed; a large right atrial mass was discovered. Magnetic resonance imaging and chest CT defined

Aneurysm of the inferior vena cava
The Surgeon, 2003Aneurysms of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are extremely rare, with a range of reported presentations including deep venous thrombosis. Computerised Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans are suggested appropriate diagnostic imaging modalities, but even then it may not be possible to differentiate between an IVC aneurysm and a ...

Venous blood is derived back to the right side of the heart from the lower part of the body through the inferior vena cava (IVC). The IVC opens into the lowest part of the right atrium (RA) directed upward and backward by a rudimentary valve (Eustachian valve) at the level of the lower third of the ninth thoracic vertebra. The IVC is usually visualized

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.

, 1964 Der diagnostische Wert der Cavographie in der Beurteilung von thrombotischen Veranderungen der Vena cava inferior und zur Lokalisation von retroperitonealen Tumoren ist erst wahrend der letzten Jahre allgemein erkannt worden. Die erste klinische Anwendung der Cavographie erfolgte jedoch schon 1935 durch R.

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.
