Purpose: To present the anesthetic management for excision of a primary tumour of the inferior vena cava.
Clinical Features: Resection of a primary tumour of the inferior vena cava without extension to the right atrium was scheduled without extra-corporeal circulation (ECC). The operation consisted of tumour excision with transtumoral clamping. During the immediate postoperative period, tricuspid obstruction was suspected when a "cannon a wave" was recorded from the right atrial pressure curve. Transesophageal echocardiography confirmed the diagnosis of tumour obstruction of the tricuspid valve.
Conclusion: Tricuspid obstruction due to postoperative mobilization of a primary tumour of the inferior vena cava was diagnosed by transesophageal echocardiography. Perioperative management particularities of the primary tumour of the vena cava are discussed.

Objectives: Contrast agents are frequently administered in computed tomography (CT) scans used for opportunistic screening of osteoporosis. The objective of this study is to compare the impact of contrast-related bone mineral density (BMD) increase between phantom-based and internal CT calibration techniques.
Materials And Methods: Phantom-based and internal CT calibration techniques were used to determine trabecular BMD in 93 existing clinical CT scans of the lumbar spine of 34 subjects, scanned before and after administration of contrast agents.
