Intracardiac extension of the inferior vena cavaLeiomyosarcoma with Budd-Chiari syndrome presentation: A case report [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2015 Introduction. Leiomyosarcomas of the inferior vena cava are rare malignant tumors. A limited number of these cases have been described so far. Only few of them have intracardiac propagation and surgery is rarely undertaken for their treatment ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava
Medicina, 2010 Leiomyosarcoma is a rare tumor of mesenchymal origin usually affecting the inferior vena cava. Early diagnosis is essential before surgical resection, which is the only therapeutic modality that prolongs patients’ survival. Ultrasonography, computer tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are the main imaging modalities in this case.

The azygos system as a rare alternative for chronic indwelling catheters placement [PDF]
, 2009 Chronic indwelling catheters are plagued with a high rate of complications, including infection, central venous occlusion, or thrombosis. When direct access to the superior or inferior vena cava is not possible, venography may identify alternatives that ...

A sharp interface Lagrangian-Eulerian method for rigid-body fluid-structure interaction [PDF]
, 2020 This paper introduces a sharp interface method to simulate fluid-structure interaction (FSI) involving rigid bodies immersed in viscous incompressible fluids. The capabilities of this methodology are demonstrated for a range of benchmark test cases along with large-scale models of biomedical FSI.

Uncomplicated percutaneous IVC filter removal following implantation time of 6033 days
Radiology Case Reports, 2020 Most patients have a time limited indication for inferior vena cava filtration. When the indication has expired, a retrievable inferior vena cava filter should be removed percutaneously, unless the risks of retrieval outweigh the benefits.

A finite element solver and energy stable coupling for 3D and 1D fluid models [PDF]
, 2013 The paper develops a solver based on a conforming finite element method for a 3D--1D coupled incompressible flow problem. New coupling conditions are introduced to ensure a suitable bound for the cumulative energy of the model. We study the stability and accuracy of the discretization method, and the performance of some state-of-the-art linear ...
