Two cases are presented in which anomalies of the inferior vena cava were associated with horseshoe kidneys. Radiological demonstration of such combined variation is rare, only one case of duplicated inferior vena cava with horseshoe kidney having been found in the literature. The embryological basis for these anomalies is reviewed. A possible explanation for their coexisting occurrence is also speculatively raised.
本文报告两例下腔静脉异常合并马蹄肾的病例。这种联合变异的影像学表现罕见，文献中仅发现一例重复下腔静脉合并马蹄肾的病例。本文回顾了这些异常的胚胎学基础，并推测了它们同时出现的可能原因。
