aneurysm of the communicating Vein between the left renal Vein and left Ascending Lumbar Vein mimicking a retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy a case report
Current Medical Imaging Formerly Current Medical Imaging Reviews, 2021Co-Authors: Sevtap Arslan, Musturay Karcaaltincaba, Yasin Sarikaya, Ali Devrim KaraosmanogluAbstract:Introduction Aneurysm of the communicating Vein between the left renal Vein and left Ascending Lumbar Vein is extremely rare with only anecdotal reported cases. Unless detected and recognized promptly, this rare condition may give rise to severe bleeding in patients undergoing retroperitoneal surgery. It may also closely mimic enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes, paragangliomas, adrenal masses, or renal artery aneurysms. Case report In this case study, we reported the imaging findings of this rare entity which was falsely diagnosed as enlarged retroperitoneal lymph node in an outside medical center, reported as to be consistent with metastatic disease, in a patient with newly diagnosed testicular cancer. Conclusion The aneurysm of the communicating Vein should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients with testicular cancer and other disease processes where lymph nodes are commonly affected.

Unilateral Transpedicular Course of an Ascending Lumbar Vein through a Pedicular Foramen Mimicking a Lytic Lesion: An Anatomic Variant
AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2004Co-Authors: Musturay Karcaaltincaba, Deniz AkataAbstract:An Ascending Lumbar Vein passing through a foramen on the right pedicle of the third Lumbar vertebra unilaterally, which was diagnosed incidentally during virtual CT colonoscopy of a patient with a rectal tumor, is described. Recognition of this anatomic variation is important to avoid diagnostic misinterpretations and transpedicular interventions such as percutaneous vertebroplasty or surgical instrumentation that may result in excessive hemorrhage and inadvertent leak of cement when it is present.

Radiological sign of a long line in the Ascending Lumbar Vein
Archives of disease in childhood, 2005Co-Authors: B C Schoonakker, D HardingAbstract:We would like to draw attention to a useful radiological sign indicating that a percutaneous central venous catheter may be in the Ascending Lumbar Vein. In our neonatal unit there have been two confirmed cases where the Ascending Lumbar Vein had inadvertently been cannulated. In both these cases a loop in the line had been noted in the region of the ileo-femoral Vein (see figs 1 and 2). This “looping” or bend in …

misplacement of a femoral venous catheter into the Ascending Lumbar Vein repositioning using ultrasonographic guidance
Intensive Care Medicine, 2001Co-Authors: Enrique Carrion, James H Hertzog, Andrew W Gunter, Cullen Ruff, Gabriel J HauserAbstract:A 5-week-old infant with congenital chylothorax required long-term intravenous access for parenteral nutrition. Cannulation of the inferior vena cava via the left femoral Vein was attempted, but the catheter was misplaced into the left Ascending Lumbar Vein. Catheter removal is advised when such malposition is identified. We were able successfully to redirect the catheter into the inferior vena cava using ultrasonographic guidance. This procedure has not been described previously in children. We propose that repositioning of incorrectly placed vascular catheters can be achieved using ultrasound guidance at the bedside.

ARP Case Report Nº 12: Communicating Varix between the Left Renal Vein and Left Ascending Lumbar Vein
SPRMN, 2018Co-Authors: Silva, Carlos FranciscoAbstract:69-year-old female found on a routine radiological follow-up (yearly abdominal CT scan) after a left adrenalectomy 4 years ago (pathologically proven cortical adenoma). Chronic left flank pain, already present before the adrenalectomy was the major complaint.A small left para-aortic “mass” was the main finding on the CT scan. As differential diagnosis we have considered para-aortic lymphadenopathy, adrenal mass or a saccular renal artery aneurysm given a somewhat prominent contrast enhancement.This patient had previous abdominal CT scans, one before the adrenalectomy and the others after that surgery, and in all but one of them it was retrospectively shown that this “mass” was already present.Coronal and oblique axial views and MIP reconstruction better depicted that the “mass” was indeed a varix or varicosity that put into communication the left renal Vein and the left Ascending Lumbar Vein.Literature review have shown that this varix could be an explanation for the chronic left pain that this patient had because of the compression and irritation of the left Lumbar plexus given the close relation of these two anatomical structures.The “disappearance” or transitory collapse of this varix in one of the patient´s previous follow-up CT scans that we retrospectively analyzed might be due to variations in intra-abdominal pressure related to Valsalva maneuver during the CT scan image acquisition.After alerting the requesting physicians to this varix and possible explanation for the chronic pain complaints, the patient was referred to Pain Medicine specialty in our institution
