During medical follow-up, partial absence of the inferior vena cava was diagnosed, a rare congenital alteration affecting the vascular drainage from the inferior segment of the body. Imaging exams were accomplished, contributing to evaluation and description of the case. Conservative treatment with oral anticoagulant was maintained. The patient presents good evolution after long-term cardiovascular follow-up.

Background: Pediatric trauma is a major global health concern, accounting for a substantial proportion of deaths and disease burden from age 5 onwards. Effective triage and management are essential in pediatric trauma care, and prediction models such as the Trauma Injury Severity Score (TRISS) play a crucial role in estimating survival probability and guiding quality improvement. However, TRISS does not account for age-specific factors in pediatric populations, limiting its applicability to younger patients.
