Inferior Vena Cava Thrombosis attributable to Hyperhomocysteinemia: A
Case Report from Nepal
Abstract
Inferior vena cava thrombosis (IVCT) is a rare occurrence and is a
result of leg deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The etiology of IVC thrombosis
can be divided into congenital versus acquired etiological factors found
in Virchow’s triad of stasis, injury, and hypercoagulability.
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a rare risk factor for thromboembolism.
