A case of morphological variations in the diaphragmatic crura and a congenital venous connection between the inferior vena cava and hemiazygos vein
The crural parts of the diaphragm play a key role in gastro-oesophageal functions. The duplication of the crura may be the result of improper timing in the interaction between the lung buds and dorsal mesentery. In abdominal imaging, the Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) is a crucial structure. It is associa...

| Summary: | The crural parts of the diaphragm play a key role in gastro-oesophageal functions. The duplication of the crura may be the result of improper timing in the interaction between the lung buds and dorsal mesentery. In abdominal imaging, the Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) is a crucial structure. It is associated with several congenital and pathologic processes. This study report a rare diaphragmatic crural pattern, the formation of the oesophageal hiatus, the abnormal position of the right coeliac ganglion, the unusual course of the right lumbar sympathetic trunk, and the congenital venous connection between the IVC and hemiazygos vein. Understanding these details can aid in radiological image interpretation and retroperitoneal surgical treatments. |
