Abstract A 39-year-old patient presented with a history of right-side heart failure (dyspnea and orthopnea), right lower extremity deep vein thrombosis, and hepatic impairment. A physical exam showed increased jugular venous pressure, hepatomegaly, and bilateral lower limb pitting edema. A computed tomography angiograph revealed an arteriovenous communication between the right iliac artery and inferior vena cava (IVC) at the level of L4/L5. The patient was diagnosed with a large arteriovenous fistula (AVF), which developed post lumbar disc surgery. Fistulas between the common iliac arteries and IVC are very rare post lumbar disc surgery. Acquired iliocaval AVF is much more difficult to treat surgically because of the risk of massive hemorrhage. The patient underwent a successful endovascular stent graft repair. The patient’s symptoms of heart failure including exertional dyspnea and orthopnea were resolved 6 months post surgery.

✓ Traumatic injury of the aorta, inferior vena cava, and iliac vessels due to penetration of the anterior anulus fibrosus and anterior longitudinal ligament is a recognized complication of lumbar disc surgery. The authors report, to the best of their knowledge, the first case of discectomy-related superior rectal artery injury treated by endovascular intervention.

Congenital anomalies of the caval vein are often associated with other abnormities such as heart defects, situs inversus or a polysplenia-asplenia-syndrome. An isolated, congenital malformation like aplasia of the inferior vena cava is a rare finding. A review of the embryology and abnormities, diagnostics, clinical signs and treatment is given together with the histories of two patients having thrombosis of the lower extremities and pelvic veins, caused by aplasia of the inferior vena cava. After thrombotic complications caused by vena cava aplasia there is high risk of recurrence. Those patients should be anticoagulated for lifetime.
