The co-existence of abnormalities of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a rare condition but with surgical significance. With the development of various imaging technics and the routine use of computerized tomography for the examination of the abdomen and/or the investigation of AAA these venous abnormalities can be disclosed. A male patient with AAA and left sided IVC is presented.
