ABSTRACT
@#Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common peripheral vascular disease, causing pulmonary embolism, post-venous thrombosis syndrome, chronic thrombotic pulmonary hypertension, and other complications.[1] The inferior vena cava filter (IVCF) implantation combined with adequate anticoagulation could lower the incidence of fatal PE to <1%.[2] In clinical practice, the double inferior vena cava (IVC) malformation along with lower extremity DVT (LEDVT) is rarely seen, and poor perception towards this disease easily leads to misdiagnosis and mistreatment. This report summarized the diagnosis and treatment of a case with double IVC who underwent IVCF implantation, and also discussed relevant literature in order to improve the understanding of double IVC malformation.
