Agenesis of the Inferior Vena Cava

Revista Brasileira de Cardiologia Invasiva (English Edition), 2012
ABSTRACTAgenesis of the inferior vena cava is a rare malformation. Its most common cause is dysgenesis during embryogenesis, but it may also be related to intrauterine or perinatal thrombosis. It is usually asymptomatic, associated or not with other congenital malformations and may be related to increased risk of chronic venous insufficiency and deep ...

Short‐term actions of epigalocatechin‐3‐gallate in the liver: a mechanistic insight into hypoglycemic and potential toxic effects

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) acutely inhibited gluconeogenesis and enhanced glycolysis, glycogenolysis, and fatty acid oxidation in perfused rat livers. Mechanistic assays revealed mitochondrial uncoupling, inhibition of pyruvate carboxylation and glucose‐6‐phosphatase, shift of NADH/NAD+ ratios toward oxidation, and loss of membrane integrity ...

Preferential Myosin Heavy Chain Isoform B Expression May Contribute to the Faster Velocity of Contraction in Veins versus Arteries [PDF]

, 2007
Smooth muscle myosin heavy chains occur in 2 isoforms, SMA (slow) and SMB (fast). We hypothesized that the SMB isoform is predominant in the faster-contracting rat vena cava compared to thoracic aorta.

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Anomaly of the inferior vena cava and its tributaries

Медицинский вестник Юга России, 2023
Detection of a combination of aplasia of the inferior vena cava and retroaortic left renal vein is extremely rare. A description of a clinical case with similar anomalies in the development of the inferior vena cava and the left renal vein is given.

Treatment of Superior Vena Cava (SVC) Syndrome and Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) Thrombosis in a Patient with Colorectal Cancer: Combination of SVC Stenting and IVC Filter Placement to Palliate Symptoms and Pave the Way for Port Implantation [PDF]

, 2018
Thrombosis of the inferior vena cava is a life-threatening complication in cancer patients leading to pulmonary embolism. These patients can also be affected by superior vena cava syndrome causing dyspnea followed by trunk or extremity swelling.

Renal homotransplantation with venous outflow or infusion of antigen into the portal vein of dogs or pigs: Transplantation at portal site [PDF]

, 1977
Kidneys were transplanted in mongrel dogs so that renal venous drainage was into the portal system of the hosts. Thirty-one recipients were not treated, 11 were given one dose of 3 mg of azathioprine per kg, and 11 were given 2 mg of azathioprine per day.

Inferior Vena Cava Filters

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2013
Venous thromboembolism is common. Most pulmonary emboli arise as thromboses in the deep veins of the lower extremities and may result in serious complications. Inferior vena cava filters (IVCF) are intended to prevent the passage of deep vein thrombosis to the pulmonary arteries.

Persistent left superior vena cava with patent left innominate vein: Ideal anatomy for mini invasive thoracoscopic ligature

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2021
Persistent left superior vena cava is the most common congenital anomaly of the thoracic venous system. In most cases, the left vena cava drains into the coronary sinus and remains asymptomatic.
