Description
We describe the case of a 17 year old male who presented
with severe groin pain leading to inability to weight bear on
his left leg. Investigation revealed extensive bilateral and
proximal deep vein thrombosis, in association with an absent
inferior vena cava and anomalous venous drainage system.
We present a review of the literature surrounding this
association, summarise the typical clinical presentation and
common characteristics in this group of patients and discuss
its management.
