Interrupted inferior vena cava with azygous continuation
Full description or abstract
Interrupted inferior vena cava with azygous continuation is the result of connection failure between the right subcardinal vein and the right vitelline vein. Consequently, venous blood from the caudal part of the body reaches the heart via the azygous vein and superior vena cava. [HPO_CONTRIBUTOR:DDD_dbrown, PMID:10550884]
