Abstract:
Anomalies of the inferior vena cava arise infrequently. Knowledge of their presence can be established preoperatively with a variety of radiologic studies. This knowledge can prevent hemorrhagic complications from occurring during surgery. We present a case report of a patient with renal cell carcinoma and duplication of the inferior vena cava.
