  • Title: An unusual anastomosis between the inferior vena cava and left renal vein, causing a spurious venous return.
    Author: Zhao B, Korfsmeier KH.
    Journal: Ann Anat; 1995 Mar; 177(2):155-6. PubMed ID: 7741276.
    Abstract:
    In a Caucasian woman, a single vein was found which originated from the inferior vena cava and passed behind the abdominal aorta to join the left ovarian vein just before its entry into the left renal vein. An extra connection therefore existed between the left kidney and the inferior vena cava.
