Abstract
Congenital anomalies of the inferior vena cava can predispose adolescents to deep vein thrombosis. A 13-year-old male with left hip pain after a sports injury was found to have extensive deep vein thromobis due to an interrupted inferior vena cava. The diagnosis led to catheter-directed thrombolysis and anticoagulation, resolving symptoms.

Pediatric Emergency Care®, features clinically relevant original articles with an EM perspective on the care of acutely ill or injured children and adolescents.
