Design: Case report. Setting: Leicester Royal Infirmary. Patients: A 17-year-old male patient presenting with postoperative deep venous thrombosis secondary to anomalous inferior vena cava. Interventions: Imaging to establish the diagnosis, anticoagulation and follow-up. Main outcome measures: Serial magnetic resonance imaging and the clinical condition of the patient were assessed. Results: The patient made a good recovery and did not require a laparotomy. Conclusions: Magnetic resonance imaging is very useful in the detection of central deep venous thrombosis and anomalous inferior vena cava and should be considered in young patients with postoperative deep venous thrombosis.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a medical condition, occurs when a blood clot forms in a deep vein and pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs when a blood clot gets lodged in an artery in the lung, affecting blood flow to part of the lung.The frequencies of using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to diagnose deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism is increasing day by day.Both the technics are noninvasive and provide prompt results. But there are a good number of alternative technics for the same purposes. That is why, till now scholars and respective professionals are interested to know more about the justification and comparative effectiveness of CT and MRI in detecting DVT and PE.This review aimed to analyze the history of several detecting methods for DVT and PE and to dig out the clear concepts about the effectiveness and patient compliances of CT and MRI in detecting deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. For proper analysis a lot of research as well as meta-analysis had been studied.From this article besides scholars and professionals, general readers will get a clear concept about the features, effectiveness and justifications of CT and MRI in treating DVT and PE.

This is a case study of a 47-year-old Caucasian male whose chief concern was left lower leg swelling for 1 month. A unilateral lower extremity venous duplex examination was performed. The results concluded that the distal femoral vein was occluded to the distal popliteal vein. Incidentally, a hypoechoic region in the distal thigh near the distal femoral artery was noted by the technologist. The patient was placed on anticoagulation and was told to return for further examination if there was no relief. Three months later, the patient continued to experience lower left leg swelling and returned for another sonogram. The hypoechoic region was seen again in the distal thigh and remained occluded. A computed tomographic arterial (CT-A) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were ordered for further investigation of the hypoechoic area. The CT-A and the MRI revealed the presence of a mass in the distal thigh. The mass was biopsied and diagnosed as a leiomyosarcoma, grade 1. The mass caused the compression and occlusion of the distal femoral vein. The mass was removed, along with a portion of the distal femoral artery due to involvement of the artery within the mass. The artery was repaired with a graft.
