The Missing Inferior Vena Cava with Acute on Chronic Undiagnosed DVT’S
Journal Title: Annals of Bioethics & Clinical Applications - Year 2020, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Deep venous thrombosis secondary to congenital anomalies involving Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) are extremely rare, they are seen in upto 5% of younger patient population with confirmed DVT. Cautions should be taken to modify the risk factor that can cause hypercoagulable states. One such risk factor is IM testosterone which can cause polycythemia and stasis of blood thereby increasing the risk of clot formation, especially in patients who have hypercoagulable state. This is why testosterone is contraindicated in patients with hypercoagulable disorders. It is important to consider IVC anomalies in younger population who present with DVT to prevent life threatening pulmonary embolisms, acute limb ischemia and chronic leg ulcers in the future.
