| vena cava | The superior vena cava is the large vein which returns blood to the heart from the head, neck and both upper limbs. The inferior vena cava returns blood to the heart from the lower part of the body. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| vena cava filter | A filter used for interruption of IVC to prevent pulmonary embolism; e.g., Greenfield filter. Synonym: venocaval filter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena cava filters | Mechanical devices inserted in the inferior vena cava that prevent the migration of blood clots from deep venous thrombosis of the leg. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vena cava inferior | The large venous trunk which receives blood from the lower extremities and from the pelvic and abdominal organs. It travels through the abdomen (from the lower extremities) and returns blood to the right atrium of the heart. (20 Sep 2002) |
| vena cava superior | superior vena cava Previous: vena cava filter, vena cava filters, vena cava inferior, vena caval foramenNext: vena cava, superior, venacavographyvena cava, superior The venous trunk which returns blood from the head, neck, upper extremities and chest. (12 Dec 1998) |

| vena caval foramen | An opening in the right lobe of the central tendon of the diaphragm which transmits the inferior vena cava and branches of the right phrenic nerve. Synonym: foramen venae cavae, foramen of vena cava, foramen quadratum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valve of inferior vena cava | An endocardial fold extending from the anterior inferior margin of the inferior vena cava to the anterior part of the limbus fossa ovalis. Synonym: valvula venae cavae inferioris, caval valve, eustachian valve, sylvian valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| groove for superior vena cava | A groove on the surface of the right lung, above the hilum, in which runs the superior vena cava. Synonym: sulcus venae cavae cranialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinus of the vena cava | The portion of the cavity of the right atrium of the heart that receives the blood from the venae cavae; it is separated from the rest of the atrium by the crista terminalis. Synonym: sinus venarum cavarum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus for vena cava | A groove on the posterior surface of the liver between the caudate lobe and the right lobe which gives passage to the inferior vena cava. Synonym: sulcus venae cavae, fossa venae cavae, sulcus for vena cava. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior vena cava | <anatomy> The major venous channel draining the thorax and head which ends in the right atrium. (19 Jan 1998) |
| superior vena cava obstruction | <cardiology, oncology> Blockage or narrowing of the superior vena cava, the major vein draining the upper body. May result from lymphoma, liver tumours, tuberculosis, histoplasmosis and aortic aneurysm. (19 Jan 1998) |
| superior vena cava syndrome | <syndrome> A narrowing or obstruction of the superior vena cava. Symptoms include facial swelling, arm swelling, neck swelling, headache, dizziness, fainting and reddening of the face and palms. This may occur secondary to cancer or other inflammatory conditions (tuberculosis, histoplasmosis). See: superior vena cava obstruction (19 Jan 1998) |
| inferior vena cava | The large venous trunk which receives blood from the lower extremities and from the pelvic and abdominal organs. It travels through the abdomen (from the lower extremities) and returns blood to the right atrium of the heart. (20 Sep 2002) |
| inferior vena cava filter | <radiology> Indications: contraindication to anticoagulation, failure of anticoagulation, complication of anticoagulation: haemorrhage or thrombocytopenia, large free-floating IVC/iliac vein thrombus expanded indications: cor pulmonale and DVT/PE, patients with high risk of complications to anticoagulation, metastatic disease, syncope in elderly, prophylactic placement in high-risk trauma patients, spinal cord injury, severe head injury, complex pelvic fractures, multiple long bone fractures, prophylactic placement before hip/knee replacement in patients with prior DVT prophylactic filters remain controversial see also: types of IVC filters (12 Dec 1998) |
| opening of inferior vena cava | The orifice through which the inferior vena cava opens into the right atrium. Synonym: ostium venae cavae inferioris, orifice of inferior vena cava. (05 Mar 2000) |
