title: Bilateral inferior vena cava: a vascular abnormality encountered during electrophysiologic study.
abstract: In the course of clinical practice, the electrophysiologist may encounter a wide variety of vascular abnormalities, which are important to recognize, as they may potentially impact on the health and welfare of the patient. We describe a case of bilateral inferior vena cava and review its etiology, diagnosis, and significance to the cardiologist and electrophysiologist.
