Endovascular management of venous ulcer in a patient with occluded duplicated inferior vena cava and review of inferior vena cava development.
Duplication of inferior vena cava (IVC) is the most common IVC anomaly. We report a successful iliac vein and collateral stenting for venous decompression in a patient with an occluded right femorocaval graft with a duplicated IVC. We also review the literature of embryological development of IVC.
