Variations of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are clinically silent and most often diagnosed incidentally when imaging for other reasons. However, they may have significant clinical implications during retroperitoneal surgery, venous intervention, or differential imaging diagnosis. This article describes a case of triple IVC, discovered on a lumbar CT and MRI scan during an evaluation of back pain.
下腔静脉(IVC)的变异是临床无症状的,大多数情况下是在因其他原因进行影像检查时偶然发现的。然而,在腹膜后手术、静脉介入或鉴别影像学诊断时,它们可能具有重要的临床意义。本文描述了一例在腰痛评估中腰椎 CT 和 MRI 扫描发现的三腔 IVC 病例。
