A case report of a left sided IVC with hemiazygos continuation and retro aortic right renal vein in a 45 year old female is described here with discussion of embryogenesis of this anomaly and its clinical importance. The anomaly was first observed on computer tomographic images performed for a different purpose. Doppler ultrasound done afterwards then showed absence of hepatic segment of the IVC and a retro aortic right renal vein. As far as our search is concerned this is the first report of its kind in Ethiopia.
本文描述了一例45岁女性左侧下腔静脉伴半奇静脉延续及主动脉后右肾静脉的病例报告，并讨论了该异常的胚胎发生及其临床重要性。该异常最初在因其他目的进行的计算机断层扫描图像上被发现。随后进行的多普勒超声显示下腔静脉肝段缺如及主动脉后右肾静脉。就我们的检索而言，这是埃塞俄比亚首例此类报告。
