Objective: We describe a possible relationship between inferior vena cava anomalies and extensive thrombosis of the inferior vena cava and the iliac and femoral veins.
Conclusion: An anomaly of the inferior vena cava should be considered in young patients who present with deep vein thrombosis of the femoral and iliac veins. Coagulation abnormalities, frequently found in these patients, may be a contributory factor.

Three types of side-to-side microvascular anastomosis training models using rat abdominal vessels.
World Neurosurg
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, 510260, China.
Background: Side-to-side microvascular anastomosis is the most difficult type of anastomosis. The best way to master microvascular anastomosis technique is deliberate practice in the microsurgical laboratory.
Methods: Three types of side-to-side microvascular anastomosis using the rat abdominal vessels were presented.
Impact of cardiac position, morphology and operative technique on long-term fontan outcomes in heterotaxy.
Eur J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, The Labatt Family Heart Centre, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the outcomes of heterotaxy patients undergone the Fontan operation, focusing on morphological features and surgical techniques.
Methods: Eighty-two consecutive heterotaxy patients who underwent the Fontan operation from 1985 to 2021 were compared to 150 patients with tricuspid atresia (TA) and 144 patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model were used to analyze transplant-free survival and predictor of outcomes.
High-resolution 0.25 mm Detector CT Has Limited Impact on Right Adrenal Vein Detectability in Preprocedural Contrast Enhanced CT for Adrenal Venous Sampling.
J Comput Assist Tomogr
January 2025
Department of Radiology, University of Yamanashi, Chuo, Yamanashi.
Objective: This study aims to identify factors associated with the detectability of the right adrenal vein (RAV) on preoperative contrast-enhanced CT scans of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in the era of high-resolution CT (HRCT).
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, 36 patients (15 men and 21 women; mean age, 56 y) who underwent preoperative contrast-enhanced CT [11 patients in HRCT with 0.25 mm detector matrix (Cannon Medical Systems) and 25 patients in conventional multidetector CT with 0.
Combining Low-energy Images in Dual-energy Spectral CT With Deep Learning Image Reconstruction Algorithm to Improve Inferior Vena Cava Image Quality.
J Comput Assist Tomogr
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine.
Objective: To explore the application of low-energy image in dual-energy spectral CT (DEsCT) combined with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) to improve inferior vena cava imaging.
Materials And Methods: Thirty patients with inferior vena cava syndrome underwent contrast-enhanced upper abdominal CT with routine dose, and the 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80 keV images in the delayed phase were first reconstructed with the ASiR-V40% algorithm. Image quality was evaluated both quantitatively [CT value, SD, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) for inferior vena cava] and qualitatively to select an optimal energy level with the best image quality.
Abnormal characteristics of inferior vena cava and abdominal aorta among neonates with early onset septic shock.
Ital J Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Neonatology, Shanghai Children's Medical Center, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao tong University, Shanghai, China.
Background: The variety of shocks in neonates, if not recognized and treated immediately, is a major cause for fatality. The use of echocardiography may improve assessment and treatment, but its reference values across gestational age (GA) and birth weight (BW) are lacking. To address the information gap, this study aimed at correlating GA and BW of newborns with nonhemodynamic abnormalities, and at evaluating the usefulness of such reference values in neonates with early onset septic (EOS) -shock.
