Tag: inferior vena cava

Anomalies of the inferior vena cava are rare and result mainly from abnormal embryological development. Among these, the most common are double inferior vena cava (IVC), with an incidence of 0.2––3% [2, 11], and left sided IVC with an incidence of 0.69% [20]. They are mostly incidentally diagnosedon imaging of the area, usually with computed tomography (CT scanning) or magnetic resonanceimaging (MRI) done for other reasons...

cells migrate to desired locations. Once in their desired location they begin to divide and mature into a terminally differentiate state, they then grow and divide and eventually become tissues and organs. It has been postulated that signalling...

Tętniak jest poszerzeniem światła tętnicy o co najmniej 50% w porównaniu z niezmienionym odcinkiem znajdującym się powyżej i powstaje w wyniku zmian patologicznych zachodzących w ścianie naczynia. Ściana tętniaka jest w porównaniu ze ścianą zdrowego naczynia słabsza, zmieniona pod względem morfologicznym, histologicznym, mechanicznym i w związku z tym łatwiej ulega pęknięciu. Pęknięcie tętniaka aorty jest stanem bezpośrednio zagrażającym życiu...

An aneurysm is a widening of artery by at least 50% compared with the unchanged part located above and it is the result of pathological changes occurring in the wall of the vessel. The wall of the aneurysm is weaker compared with healthy vessel wall, as amended in terms of morphological, histological, mechanical and therefore more susceptible to rupture. Aortic aneurysm rupture is directly life-threatening condition...
