Idiopathic Dilatation of the Superior Vena Cava (Superior Vena Cava Dilatation)
Pediatrics, 1972A case is reported of an 8-year-old male who presented with mediastinal widening secondary to idiopathic dilatation of the superior vena cava. Roentgen signs of superior vena cava dilatation include a right, anterior, and superior location in the mediastinum, lack of tracheal deviation, and increased size on supine roentgenograms.

Dual Inferior Vena Cava: Two Inferior Vena Cava Filters
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007The formation of the venous drainage system of the human body is a complex process involving structures forming and regressing in a predefined order. Interruption of any one of these steps results in the formation of a congenital anomaly. Knowledge of these anomalies can prevent us from potential serious and sometimes fatal complications.

Anomalies of the inferior vena cava
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1986The inferior vena cava is formed by a complex process of embryogenesis during the sixth to tenth week of gestation. Improper completion of the process may result in four anatomic anomalies: duplication of the inferior vena cava, transposition or left-sided inferior vena cava, retroaortic left renal vein, and circumaortic left renal vein.

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 ...

Vena cava filters are effective in preventing pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with deep vein thrombosis or PE who either have contraindications to anticoagulation or have sustained a PE despite adequate anticoagulation. Although vena cava filters are not without complications, clinically significant morbidity and mortality are low.

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.
