There is duplicated left sided inferior vena cava which crosses anterior to the aorta at the level of the left renal vein to join right IVC.
Case Discussion
Duplication of the inferior vena cava is a relatively rare vascular anomaly, but this caval abnormality needs to be recognized, especially in association with renal anomalies like crossed fused ectopia or circumaortic renal collar.
