Abstrakt: Inferior vena cava (IVC) atresia is a rare congenital anomaly. Standardized treatment is not well defined due to its uncommon presentation, with this pathology associated with an increased risk of unprovoked lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT). We present a case of a 32-year-old man who was admitted for bilateral lower extremity edema and pain and was found to have bilateral extensive iliofemoral and femoropopliteal DVT, absence of IVC filling, and extensive tortuous collateralization arising from the pelvic veins to the azygos vein. Bilateral mechanical thrombectomy and endovascular iliocaval reconstruction was performed. Three months later, the patient demonstrated widely patent iliocaval stents and the absence of DVT. Endovascular treatment of IVC atresia is feasible and optimizes the reduction of thrombus burden.
