Title: Collateral veins in inferior caval vein occlusion demonstrated via CT. Author: Lien HH, Lund G. Journal: Eur J Radiol; 1983 Nov; 3(4):319-23. PubMed ID: 6653564. Abstract: CT-scans of 12 patients with tumour-induced occlusion of the inferior vena cava were studied with regard to collateral veins. A comparison was performed with findings at phlebography in 10 patients and at autopsy in 2. The site and appearance of the main collateral pathways are presented. A close study of vascular structures renders useful information on collateral circulation in occlusion of the inferior vena cava.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
