We report a case in which routine chest roentgenograms of an 840 g infant led to the belief that the peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) was appropriately positioned within the superior vena cava when, in actuality, it was within the azygous arch. Although many cases of pleural effusions have been reported to be caused by a central venous catheter, a...

Infrahepatic interruption of the inferior vena cava with azygos continuation is elatively infrequent cardiovascular developmental anomaly occurring both in association with congenital heart disease and as an isolated anomaly of no hemodynamic importance. During the past 5years, we observed 38cases of infrahepatic interruption of IVC with azygos continuation out of 2,397 cases of congenital heart disease catheterized at Yonsei...

Anomalies of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are often discovered incidentally during imaging studies performed for other reasons, since patients with these abnormalities are usually asymptomatic. Infrahepatic interruption of the IVC with azygos or hemiazygos continuation is an unusual anomaly of the IVC. We report a case of single left-sided IVC with hemiazygos continuation in associated with patent ductus arteriosus and left superior vena cava....

Out of 1617 cases of congenital heart disease, who were admitted to the Pediatric ward, Seoul National University Hospital, for cardiac catheterization during recent 5 years, 20 patients with anomalous inferior vena cava were observed. Associated cardiac and extracardiac vascular anomalies were reviewed. Cardiac and visceral malposition were also analyzed. Results; 1) Incidence was 1.2% of total 1617 catheterized patients. 2) Male and female...
