Inferior vena cava syndrome (IVCS) is a result of obstruction of the inferior vena cava. It can be caused by invasion or compression by a pathological process or by thrombosis in the vein itself.

Frequency

Epidemiological data is elusive owing to the wide variety of clinical presentation. In the U.S., incidence is estimated to be at 5–10 cases per 100'000 per year.

Causes in Alphabetical Order

Symptoms

IVCS presents with a wide variety of signs and symptoms, making it difficult to diagnose clinically.

Edema of the lower extremities
Tachycardia
In pregnant women, signs of fetal hypoxia and distress may be seen in the CTG

 ==Causes==
-*'''Obstruction''' by [[deep vein thrombosis]] or [[tumors]] (most commonly [[renal cell carcinoma]])
+===Common Causes===
-*'''Compression''' through external pressure by neighbouring structures or tumors, either by significantly compressing the vein or by promoting [[thrombosis]] by causing turbulence by disturbing the blood flow. This is quite common during the third trimester of [[pregnancy]] when the [[uterus]] compresses the vein in the right side position.
+*[[Abdominal aortic aneurysm]]
-*'''[[Iatrogenic]]''' causes may be suspected in patients with a medical history of [[liver transplantation]], vascular [[catheters]], [[dialysis]] and other invasive procedures in the vicinity
