An Inferior Venacaval (IVC) lumen obstruction, whether it is partial or complete, is not a common phenomenon and it may be caused by the thrombosis or compression which may result from neoplastic or non neoplastic masses. There are cases which are idiopathic and which are typically referred to as membranous obstructions of the IVC. Here, we are presenting a 40 years old male with multiple tortuous veins over the abdomen, with non healing ulcers in the leg for 12 years, without ascites, who underwent a successful percutaneous transluminal balloon dilatation of the IVC membrane which was located above the hepatic veins, which resulted in a successful palliation of his symptoms.
下腔静脉(IVC)管腔阻塞,无论是部分性还是完全性,都不是常见现象,可能由肿瘤性或非肿瘤性肿块导致的血栓形成或压迫引起。有些病例是特发性的,通常被称为下腔静脉膜性阻塞。在此,我们报告一名40岁男性,其腹部有多处迂曲静脉,腿部有12年不愈合的溃疡,无腹水,接受了经皮腔内球囊扩张位于肝静脉上方的下腔静脉膜,症状得到成功缓解。
