Özet

We report a case of interruption of the inferior vena cava with azygos/hemiazygos continuation and additional variations of the renal veins, an uncommon developmental anomaly. Magnetic resonance angiography and computed tomography, in association with clinical awareness, can be used to diagnose this entity.
