Adrenal vein development in utero occurs concurrently with the development of the inferior vena cava, the renal veins, and the gonadal veins. The embryologic formation of these veins involves communication of various venous systems. Although the left adrenal-renal vein complex is most commonly described as a shared emptying of the left adrenal vein and the left inferior phrenic vein into the le...

conclusions in our study, portal venous thrombosis was detected in the patient who died during the acute period only. a study including large numbers of budd-chiari-syndrome patients with behcet’s disease and portal venous thrombosis would be helpful to determine the prognostic significance of portal venous thrombosis in budd-chiari-syndrome patients with behcet’s disease. in addition, patients...

purpose: to evaluate total plasma homocysteine level during the acute phase of central retinal vein occlusion (crvo) compared with a matched healthy group in iranian population, and determine whether hyperhomocysteinemia is also a risk factor for crvo. methods: a study group contains 54 patients presenting with crvo in recent one month, acute phase of the decease, was compared for fasting total...

the ramifications of the portal vein in the liver of horses were studied by using corrosion casting and gross dissection. the portal vein in the horse supplies the hepatic lobes by six major branches. the right lobe is supplied by three main branches, namely the dorsal diaphragmatic, the right caudodorsal and the right intermediate branches. the left branch supplies the left lateral and medial ...

Over a seven year period from 1982 to 1989,3337 conduits were created in 3137 patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) as access for chronic dialysis. These included 2690 side-to-side arteriovenous fistulae (A VF), 168 end-to-side A VFs, 10 autogenous vein grafts, 51 homogenous frozen vein grafts, 109 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts, 209 emergency external arteriovenous shunts, t...

Objective(s): In this study, we aimed to describe the characteristics of portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT), complicating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in contrast-enhanced FDG PET/CT scan. Methods: In this retrospective study, 9 HCC patients with FDG-avid PVTT were diagnosed by contrast-enhanced fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT), which is a comb...
